Hugo Boss
By: Boyd Davis
German clothier Hugo Boss was founded by Mr. Hugo Boss in 1923 as a family-owned
clothing factory in 1923, manufacturing worker's clothes.
Thirty years would pass before it makes its first men's suit (1953) which would
eventually be the heart of its business.
During the 1970s, it slowly evolved into creating high-end suits for men. The
company enjoyed extreme popularity during the 1980s when it was the costumer for
Miami Vice's Don Johnson and Jan-Michael Phillip.
The company went public in 1985. Currently, Hugo Boss is part of the Marzotto Group,
an Italian luxury group controlled by the Marzotto family.
Although Hugo Boss was a family business for a long time, no member of the Boss family
is part of the existing Hugo Boss AG.
Hugo Boss shows its men's collection at the Milan Menswear Show, and its women's wear
collection at Milan Fashion Week. For New York, the company shows both its men's and
women's wear in one presentation.
