RUNWAY: Hugo Boss FW18
German label
Hugo Boss is known for their sleek and minimalist aesthetic and what came down the runway didn't entirely convey Hugo Boss. This season, the label skewed much younger and more inclined to risk - their bread-and-butter tailor business is immensely popular so they can experiment a bit with runway collections. The result of this younger and riskier collection was a slouchier silhouette, exaggerated proportions and more outre details, such as baseball pattern on a jacket or blanket-cum-cape or the crinkled or quilted pants, the latter seemed out of place with the collection's theme and the label itself. In all, when stalwarts of menswear such as Boss do experiment and think more out of the box, it's always a good thing.
