F

rom the verdant foliage of the Killesberg park in Stuttgart to the internationally renowned Herrenhäusen gardens in Hanover to Berlin’s Tiergarten and Munich’s 900-acre Englischer Garten, Germany’s cities burst into life-affirming greenery in springtime. Germany’s parks form a rich part of its city landscapes, all the more striking when they are juxtaposed with gleaming highrise skyscrapers and sculptural architecture.

With spring also heralding a change for our wardrobes, it’s heartening to note that designers are bringing the outside in, infusing our style repertoire with pieces that embrace the botanical, the blooming and the wild.

Designers often mine the aesthetics of the natural world for the spring/summer season.

But what’s remarkable about this spring’s offering, across menswear, womenswear and accessories, is the especially exciting, vibrant, fresh interpretation of the natural world.

A host of German designers have joined in this season’s celebration of all things wild and wonderful ‘It was about a clash of cultures,’ said Kim Jones backstage at his spring/summer 2016 menswear show for Louis Vuitton.

The collection married eastern and western aesthetics. ‘It was about vintage Americana alongside influences from Asia,’ explained Jones. This coming together was expressed Above (from lef): Louis Vuiton; Gucci, both spring/summer 2016

by interpreting tropical forms of nature from far-flung, exotic locales. Jones is known as an intrepid traveller, and his designs saw storks swooping over silk bombers and shirting, cherry blossoms erupting into bloom, and capuchin monkeys peering out curiously from bamboo fronds; all to joyous effect. Jones consistently finds new ways to inject life and colour into his men’s collections, an area of fashion that generally veers towards the safe and standard rather than the bold and printed.

‘I think there’s definitely a push towards vibrant, vivid prints and a greater sense of adventure in how we dress,’ says Bill Prince, Above (from lef): Marc Jacobs; Gucci; Aigner; Jil Sander, all spring/summer 2016

PHOTO: © GORUNWAY.COM

deputy editor of British GQ. ‘Botanical prints and imagery of that ilk undoubtedly feed in to that.’ Who needs a tropical trek through the jungle when you can gain a sense of adventure through Kim Jones’s impeccable menswear?

At Gucci, Alessandro Michele continued to revolutionise the menswear landscape with his fluid, feminine designs, interpreted using the power of nature. Embroidered bouquets wound their way up suits, garlands were stitched onto lace around necklines, butterflies fluttered over sweaters and rainbow-bright stems, stalks, petals and stamens were blown up and printed onto suits. It was a similar story at Marc Jacobs,

who dappled silk pyjama suits and shirts with blossoms and dashes of leopard print.

Germany’s designers were not to be outdone; a host of them joined in the celebration of all things wild and wonderful. At historical German house Aigner, florals were realised in jacquard, lending them a three-dimensional quality. Creative director Christian Beck, in an innovative move, took his cue fraom under the sea, with starfish, crabs, tentacles, seaweed and shells picked out in lace. At Jil Sander, men’s shirting and shorts were dotted with tiny blooms, in a rare burst of frivolity for a brand known for its minimalist aesthetic.

Our wardrobes are increasingly technical, not just in their fabrication but in their construction, design and print. This move away from all things sophisticated and city-centric towards the outdoors, nature and animal life perhaps speaks to our desire to connect with that increasingly distant part of the world in some small form. Whatever the reason, these nature-inspired prints and motifs lend a hint of wit and whimsy to even the most standard piece – what could raise more of a smile than a merry capuchin peering out from the undergrowth?

Embrace the call of the wild this season. Your wardrobe will thank you

IN FOCUS:

HUGO BOSS This prestigious German brand, known the world over for its suiting, boasts an impressive heritage – and its sights remain frmly fxed on the horizons ahead, as Charlie Neidpath discovers

H

ugo Boss’s striking headquarters in Metzingen are the embodiment of the brand’s ethos. While its location adheres to the chocolate-box ideal of a quintessential German town, with half-timbered façades and medieval spires, the brand’s nerve centre is a gleaming glass and steel structure set among gardens manicured with exacting precision: a bastion of stark modernity against tradition. This description could be applied to the Hugo Boss label itself, as the brand has become renowned for its fresh, contemporary style in a market that hasn’t historically been at the forefront of

Opposite page: Boss spring/summer 2016

the fashion industry. Despite Karl Lagerfeld’s German origins and the dominance of sportswear brands Adidas and Puma, Germany cannot quite match the style prestige of the UK, France and Italy.

Hugo Boss has always sought to change that. The brand was launched as a small clothing company in 1924; its eponymous founder faced various obstacles, including a bankruptcy which left the entrepreneur with only six sewing machines to his name. Against the odds, this committed businessman went on to steadily build the brand. Today, just

over 90 years since it was founded, Hugo Boss has grown into one of the world’s largest and most successful fashion brands, with a portfolio encompassing numerous ranges under the Hugo and Boss labels, products ranging from bespoke suiting to fragrances, and an international network of over 1,000 stores.

Though styles have changed over the years and the brand has adapted with signature German pragmatism, it’s been the working wardrobe that has come to define Hugo Boss’s fashion identity. In 1950, the house started creating men’s suiting and developed innovative ways to produce off-the-rack tailored items – a powerful skill in an era where creating a suit of quality was generally a painstaking process.

A real flair for catering to the businessman – and, later, businesswoman – has been an underlying influence on everything Hugo Boss has designed over the years, including its high fashion offerings, and the brand’s universal appeal can be seen in its ability to adapt the Boss signature style to suit multiple markets.

Catwalk collections strike a contemporary note with sleek suiting, impeccable tailoring, narrow cuts and single-breasted shapes. With the founding of the Boss diffusion line in 1970, the label expanded its reach, making its wares available to those who might previously have found the cost of luxury clothing prohibitive.

In 1998, the house’s womenswear collection made its debut, boldly addressing the emerging trend for power dressing: shift dresses and elegant, sleek, feminine suiting spoke clearly to a new audience.

Today, the label is more current and dynamic than ever. This is largely thanks to the deft hand of New York-based designer Jason Wu, who has brought the trademark Hugo Boss refinement and sophistication firmly into the modern day. Wu, creative director of womenswear since 2013, has steered the line into a territory that’s both glamorous and directional. A young, contemporary designer renowned for his low-key glamour might seem like an odd fit for a 91-year-old German

heritage brand, but he has become a household name. When US First Lady Michelle Obama chose to wear a Jason Wu creation at her husband’s inaugural ball in 2009, she cemented Wu’s reputation as a master of understated elegance, making him the perfect figurehead for a brand that has spent nine decades perfecting a similar aesthetic.

When approached by Hugo Boss chief brand officer Christoph Auhagen to take on the role, Wu’s first thought was ‘why me?’. ‘It seemed like the oddest match,’ he has said. ‘I thought of Boss as a menswear brand and I wasn’t super-knowledgeable about the women’s

Above (from top): Boss spring/summer 2016; models show the collection on the catwalk

side, which is only 15 years old.’ Wu was won over in part by the bold modernity of the Boss headquarters in Metzingen, which he describes as ‘like the set of the movie Gattaca’ – and the deal was sealed. Since joining the label, Wu has already added a sharpness and a sense of cool.

His latest collection features ice-white layers and blouses, muted grey and dove-toned dresses, sleek black minimalist gowns and soft yellow racer-back tops and dresses.

If more proof were needed that Hugo Boss is literally going places, in autumn 2015 the label sponsored a branded racing yacht. The boat, which features graphic design by esteemed industrial designer Konstantin Grcic, will take part in the 2016 Vendée Globe yacht race, skippered by record-breaking sailor Alex Thomson. With Wu as creative director, an ever-increasing range of products and stores, and now this new nautical endeavour, it’s tempting to describe Hugo Boss as a brand which is sailing ahead. Trite as this may sound, however, it is nonetheless true – this is a company with its sights set firmly on the horizon

WEMPE Statement jewellery is a key trend this season and Wempe’s spring/summer 2016 collection is nothing short of dazzling. Distinctive, eyecatching highlights include the Revival By Kim necklace, a chic, contemporary take on the classic curb-link chain necklace. This 1970s style has been redesigned in feminine rose gold and combines a bold handmade link chain with a solid necklace. For evening, jewellery fans should seek out By Kim’s exquisite Colonna cocktail rings, adorned with a sizeable tourmaline in either sea green or purple, as well as the spectacular haute joaillerie bracelet whose sapphire and diamond design was inspired by the crest of a wave.

По мере того, как весна все глубже проникает в сердца и души, дизайнеры готовят цветочную революцию для нашего гардероба, главной темой которой будет природа и растительный мир. Это уже не первый раз, когда модельеры черпают вдохновение для весенне-летних коллекций в эстетике природы. Что отличает модные коллекций этого сезона, так это особая свежесть и яркость передачи образов. «В центре внимания было столкновение культур», – сказал Ким Джонс за кулисами своего шоу-показа мужской коллекции весна-лето 2016 для Louis Vuitton. Коллекция объединила в себе восточную и западную эстетику. «Американское ретро тесно пересекалось с элементами азиатской культуры», – поясняет Джонс. Выразить такое единение континентов помогли тропические образы из далеких экзотических местностей. Джонс известен своей страстью к путешествиям, и, как следствие, его шелковые рубашки и куртки globalblue.com

В этом сезоне дизайнеры обратились за вдохновением к природе, сосредоточив внимание на анималистических мотивах и классических цветочных узорах, которые получили современную интерпретацию. Для теплой погоды этот тренд просто идеален, – считает Стивен Дойг

Sander покрылись мириадами крошечных цветов, нарушивших давнюю минималистскую эстетику бренда. Наш гардероб становится все более технологически совершенным, и дело не только в тканях, но и в конструкции, дизайне и принтах. Новая тенденция, оставляющая позади замысловатые урбанистические элементы и отсылающая к открытому воздуху, природе и миру животных, похоже, говорит о нашем желании хоть как-то воссоединиться с той частью мира, которая все больше от нас ускользает. Как бы там ни было, природные мотивы смогут привнести долю остроумия и фантазии даже в самый простой предмет гардероба. Кто сможет остаться равнодушным при виде милого капуцина, удивленно выглядывающего из зарослей? Откликнетесь ли вы на зов природы в этом сезоне, зависит только от вас.

бомберы пестрили изображениями летящих аистов, цветущих вишен и милых обезьян, выглядывающих из бамбуковых зарослей. Джонс продолжает искать новые способы сделать мужские коллекции более яркими и жизнерадостными в противовес многим консерваторам моды, боящимся выйти за рамки стандартов и традиций. «Мне кажется, что наша манера одеваться заметно сместилась в сторону красочных принтов и приобрела более авантюрный оттенок, – говорит Билл Принц, заместитель главного редактора английского GQ. – Цветочные и анималистские узоры явное тому доказательство». Зачем отправляться в рискованные путешествия по тропикам, если коллекции Ким Джонс могут подарить обладателю настоящий дух приключений?

Gucci и Алессандро Микеле продолжают работать над мужским гардеробом, представляя плавные линии и природные образы. На пиджаках теснятся вышитые букеты, воротники пестрят гирляндными лентами, на свитерах с радужными швами гнездятся тропические бабочки, а костюмы усеяны стебельками, бутонами и тычинками. Похожая картина наблюдалась у Марка Джекобса, который оживил шелковые пижамные костюмы и рубашки красочными соцветиями и леопардовым принтом. Немецкие дизайнеры нисколько не уступили своим коллегам, а многие из них сами поддались очарованию «цветочного безумия». Модный дом Hugo Boss переосмыслил цветочные узоры в коллекциях женской одежды, добавив сизые и серые тона для контраста с пастельными оттенками и яркими пятнами абстрактных принтов. Немецкий бренд Aigner воплотил флористику в жаккардовых тканях, создающих эффект трехмерности. Креативный директор Кристиан Бэк в свойственной ему инновационной манере создал кружевной коктейль из морских звезд, крабов, осьминогов, водорослей и раковин. Мужские рубашки и шорты Jil

В фокусе: Hugo Boss

Немецкий модный дом Hugo Boss, костюмы которого известны на весь мир, бережно хранит свою впечатляющую историю и традиции, но при этом устремлен в будущее, – рассказывает Чарли Нейдпат Стильная штаб-квартира Hugo Boss в Метцингене полностью отражает характер этого бренда. Она находится в идиллическом немецком городе, полном традиционных бревенчатых фасадов и средневековых шпилей. Однако само здание представляет собой современную конструкцию из стекла и стали, окруженную тщательно ухоженными садами. Это настоящий бастион современности на фоне globalblue.com

традиции. То же самое можно сказать и о бренде Hugo Boss: он завоевал репутацию благодаря актуальному свежему подходу в той сфере, где Германия никогда не была в авангарде. Несмотря на немецкое происхождение Карла Лагерфельда и бесспорное господство спортивных брендов Adidas и Puma, эта страна немногое может противопоставить модному влиянию Англии, Франции и Италии. Hugo Boss всегда стремился изменить эту ситуацию. История бренда началась в 1924 году с небольшого ателье. Перед основателем компании то и дело возникали самые разные препятствия. В его истории было даже банкротство, после которого все, что у него оставалось, – всего лишь шесть швейных машин. Но предприниматель был предан своему делу и, преодолевая сложности,

упорно продолжал развивать бизнес. Спустя 90 лет со дня основания Hugo Boss стал одним из самых значительных и успешных модных брендов в мире. Под лейблами Hugo и Boss выпускаются многочисленные серии, возможности варьируются от сшитых на заказ костюмов до парфюмов, и в разных странах работает более 1000 магазинов. С годами фасоны поменялись, и знаменитый немецкий прагматизм помогает модному дому адаптироваться к переменам. Модную идентичность Hugo Boss определил деловой гардероб. В 1950-е компания начала выпускать мужские костюмы и прорабатывать технологичные подходы к производству готовой одежды. Это стало важным преимуществом в эпоху, когда работа над качественным костюмом была длительной и кропотливой.

Способность угадывать потребности бизнесменов (а позднее и женщинпредпринимателей) стала лейтмотивом всего, что создает Hugo Boss на протяжении многих лет, включая высокую моду. Истоки всеобщего внимания к бренду можно усмотреть в умении применять особый стиль Boss к разнообразным условиям на рынке. Коллекции всегда выглядят актуальными благодаря детально проработанным костюмам, удачным фасонам, точному крою и однобортными силуэтам. Основав диффузную линию Boss в 1970 году, компания расширила свое присутствие: эта одежда стала более доступной для тех, кто раньше не мог ее себе позволить. В 1998 состоялся дебют женской коллекции, в которой прослеживался

ориентир на энергичный стиль – тренд нового времени: лаконичные свободные платья и элегантные, женственные костюмы были адресованы аудитории нового типа. В наши дни Hugo Boss стремится к трендовому и динамичному образу более, чем когда-либо раньше. Это происходит с легкой руки нью-йоркского дизайнера Джейсона Ву, который соединил фирменную вневременную изысканность Hugo Boss с современностью. Джейсон Ву возглавляет женское направление с 2013 года. Молодой дизайнер, сторонник актуальной сдержанности, – подобный выбор может показаться неочевидным для немецкого бренда с большой традицией. Но именно он сумел заострить женскую коллекцию и органично вписаться в жизнь модного дома. В 2009 году первая леди США Мишель Обама выбрала творение Джейсона Ву для инаугурационного бала своего мужа. Тем самым, она подтвердила репутацию Ву как мастера сдержанной элегантности. На протяжении девяти десятилетий Hugo Boss совершенствовался в этой эстетике, и globalblue.com

фигура Ву не могла остаться незамеченной. Когда директор по брендам Hugo Boss Кристоф Аухаген обратился к нему с предложением занять пост в компании, первой мыслью Ву стал вопрос «почему я?»: «Выбор показался мне очень странным, – поделился он. – Я считал Boss брендом мужской одежды и не был осведомлен о женской линии, которой всего 15 лет». Дизайнера впечатлил современный дух штаб-квартиры Boss в Метцингене, которую он назвал «похожей на декорации к фильму «Гаттака». И сделка состоялась. С момента присоединения к команде Ву уже успел заострить стиль и сделать его более точным. В его новую коллекцию вошли белоснежные блузы, платья приглушенного серого и голубого оттенков, черные минималистские комплекты и мягкие желтые топы и платья с открытыми лопатками. Осенью 2015 года Hugo Boss спонсировал фирменную гоночную яхту. Ее оформлением занимался уважаемый промышленный дизайнер Константин Грчич. В 2016 году эта лодка под управлением рекордсмена Алекса

Томсона будет участвовать в парусной гонке Vendée Globe. Постоянно растущий ассортимент и сеть бутиков, Ву на посту креативного директора, а теперь еще и морская навигация – очень соблазнительно назвать Hugo Boss большим кораблем с большим плаванием впереди. Пусть это звучит неоригинально, но так и есть: перед этим модным домом открыты все горизонты.

们也将户外的春光引入室内，为时尚系列带来颂扬 植物与生命盛放的单品，令人心生暖意。 诚然，在春夏季节设计师们时常会从自然界汲 取美学灵感。然而在今年春天尤其值得一提的，是从 男装、女装到配饰全线，都可见到这种令人兴奋、富 含活力、充满新意的对自然界的诠释。 “这是文化之间的冲突，”Kim Jones在为路易威 登带来的2016春夏男装发布会后台表示。这个系列 将东西方美学嫁接。“这是复古美国风与亚洲美学影 响的融合，”Jones解释道。两者的结合，通过从遥远 东方异国情调中提取解构出热带自然元素来呈 现。Jones是一名公认的勇敢旅行家，他的设计中包 括印有鹳鸟的丝质夹克与衬衣，烂漫盛开的樱花图 案，还有从竹林中好奇地探出脑袋的卷尾猴；一切 都洋溢着欢乐。Jones持续不断地寻找新手法为自己 的男装系列注入生命力与色彩，而这个领域传统上 来说，通常追求的是安全与标准，而非大胆与印花。 “我认为有一股潮流的力量，推动我们的着装向 充满活力的、鲜活的印花，与更具冒险精神的设计发 展，”英国版GQ杂志副主编Bill Prince表示。“植物 印花与图案之流毫无疑问与这股潮流相契合。”既然 Kim Jones无可挑剔的男装带给你冒险的乐趣，谁 还需要去丛林探险？ 在Gucci，Alessandro Michele仍致力于以自 己流线型、女性化的设计改革男装设计的图景，并利 用自然的力量加以诠释。刺绣花朵环绕于西服之上， 领口周围的花边上缝有花环，毛衣上点缀着飞舞的 蝴蝶，彩虹般的花柄、根茎、花瓣与花蕊印花绽放于 西装上。在Marc Jacobs同样如此，花朵与些许豹纹 印花装点着丝绸睡衣与衬衫。 德国的设计师们也不甘示弱；他们中的大多数 都加入了赞颂野生美好事物的行列。Hugo Boss在 女装系列中重新演绎了花朵印花，使用柔和的鸽子 色与板岩色调，与柔和的糖果色或大胆的抽象印花 形成令人耳目一新的对比效果。德国经典品牌 Aigner，花朵以提花工艺手法呈现，赋予其三维立 体感。创意总监Christian Beck大胆创新，从海底生 物中获得灵感，在花边中织入海星、螃蟹、章鱼、海 藻和贝壳等图案。在 Jil Sander，男装衬衣与短裤被 装饰以微型花朵，对这个以极简美学著称的品牌而 言，可谓是相当罕见的繁复奢华。 如今我们的衣橱变得越发有技术含量，不仅体 现于面料，也同样体现于构造、设计与印花中。这一 从纷繁复杂的事物与以城市中心，向户外、大自然以 及与动物相处的转变，透露着我们想在细微之处与 那部分渐行渐远的世界相连接的渴望。无论出于什 么原因，这些以自然为灵感的印花和图案赋予最标 准化的单品智慧与趣味——还有比探出脑袋张望的 卷尾猴更能引人一笑的吗？请尽情拥抱本季野趣的 呼唤。你的衣柜亦会对你感激不尽。 globalblue.com

32: In Focus: Hugo Boss 聚焦：Hugo Boss

这个尊贵的德国品牌，以制造西服享誉全球，在传承 光辉历史的同时——仍将视野牢牢聚焦于未 来，Charlie Neidpath报道

Hugo Boss的总部位于麦琴根，这座夺人眼球的建 筑是品牌精神的体现。其设计理念是装在巧克力盒 里浓缩的典型德国小镇，有着半木结构外墙和中世 纪尖顶，品牌的神经中枢则位于以严格标准修剪的 花园内，是一栋以反光玻璃和钢结构打造的建筑： 一座以鲜明现代性对抗传统的堡垒。这句描述同样 适用于Hugo Boss品牌本身，因其以新鲜、摩登的设 计，在一片历史上从未处于时尚前沿的市场上打开 局面而闻名。即便卡尔·拉格菲尔德来自德国，领先 运动服装品牌如阿迪达斯和彪马源于德国，德国在 时尚产业完全不能与英国、法国和意大利匹敌。 Hugo Boss一直试图改变这种状况。品牌于 1924年成立时只是一间小服装公司；其同名创始人 面临重重障碍，包括经历了一场名下只留下六台缝 纫机的破产。这位决心如铁的商人克服万难，稳步扎 实地建立自己的品牌。今日，在成立仅仅90年 后，Hugo Boss已发展为全球规模最大、最成功的 时尚品牌之一，在Hugo与Boss品牌旗下，拥有数条 产品系列，经营范围从定制西服到香氛无所不包，并 在世界各地拥有超过1000家门店网络。 虽然在过去的岁月中风格已有所改变，品牌也 适应了德国特色的实用主义，职场衣橱的美誉最终 成就了Hugo Boss的时尚身份。在1950年，品牌开 始推出男装西服，并开发出可大批量生产成衣的创 新工艺——在那个制作优质西服需要痛苦漫长过程 的年代，堪称极具影响力的技术。 品牌拥有取悦男性商务人士的天分——而后， 就是女性商务人士——这对于Hugo Boss多年来的 设计有着根深蒂固的潜在影响，包括其高级时装线， 品牌的普遍吸引力从其以Boss招牌款式迎合不同市 场的能力中可见一斑。品牌的走秀系列洋溢着摩登 的调子，包括时髦的西服、无可匹敌的剪裁、窄身廓 形与单排扣款式。当Boss副线系列在1970年推出 时，品牌继续扩大其覆盖面，让那些之前被奢侈品高 昂售价挡在门外的顾客也成为受众。1998年，品牌 的女装系列首次亮相，大胆直击气场着装的新趋 势：通勤连衣裙与优雅、时尚、女性化的西服套装， 响应这批新受众的需求。 如今，品牌相较以往更为入时与动感。这在很大 程度上归功于纽约设计师吴季刚（ Jason Wu），他 以当代手法完整诠释了Hugo Boss品牌的精致细 腻。吴季刚自2013年起担任女装创意总监起，将这 条产品线带往清晰明确的时髦新方向。一位以低调

奢华设计著称的、年轻现代的设计师，对这个91岁 的德国传统品牌而言或许有些奇怪，但他早已成为 家喻户晓的名字。2009年，当美国第一夫人米歇 尔·奥巴马选择穿着吴季刚的设计参加丈夫的就职 舞会，她再次巩固了吴季刚作为低调优雅大师的美 誉，使其成为这个以九十年时间塑造相近美学理念 之品牌的完美舵手。 当被Hugo Boss的首席品牌官Christoph Auhagen接洽并邀请其担任该职位时，吴季刚的第 一个念头是“为什么是我？”。“这看似是最怪异的组 合，”他说。“我一直以为Boss只是一个男装品牌，对 于只有15年历史的女装系列并不熟悉。” 吴季刚被打 动的部分原因是Boss麦琴根总部令人动容的摩登建 筑，他将其描述为“《千钧一发》电影场景”—— 于是 他与品牌达成了共识。自加入品牌旗下，吴季刚为其

增添了几分犀利与酷感。他带来的最新系列，包括冰 白色层叠褶皱与衬衣、暗灰色与鸽子色连衣裙、时 髦黑色极简礼服与柔软的黄色工字背上衣与连衣 裙。 还有更多证据能展现Hugo Boss的宏图未来。 在2015年秋天品牌冠名赞助了一艘竞赛帆船。这艘 船上的图案，由备受尊崇的工业设计大师 Konstantin Grcic设计，将会参加2016年的 Vendée Globe帆船赛，由屡破纪录的水手Alex Thomson驾驶。在吴季刚担任创意总监后，Hugo Boss的产品系列与门店数量都不断扩张，如今加上 对航海事业的新热情，Hugo Boss就如同扬帆远航 的旗舰。虽然听上去有些陈词滥调，但依然千真万 确——这是一间将目光牢牢聚焦于远方地平线的公 司。
