Hugo Boss

Hugo Boss AG is a fashion house based in Germany, which specializes in menswear.

History

Hugo Boss established his company in Metzingen, Germany, in 1923, only a few years after the end of WWI, while most of the country was in a state of economic ruin. Before and during World War II, Hugo Boss both designed and manufactured uniforms and attire for the troops, officers and other governmental branches of Nazi Germany. It is also rumoured that part of this particular manufacture process was based on slave labour. In 1993, 70 years after its founding, Hugo Boss launched its first fragrance, and created a division which has since grown to be an important part of the company.

Today

The company's products, divided over three brands, are available throughout the world in 102 countries and more than 5,000 retail stores. These brands are Boss, Hugo, and since 2004, Baldessarini. The latter, Baldessarini GmbH, is a more independent business unit which focuses more on a prestigeous image than its two sister brands. It sells, like the other Huge Boss brands, clothing, but also shoes, fragrances, and other accessories.
