Menswear from the Hugo Boss summer collection discovers the eastern coast of Africa with standout colour schemes meeting surprising contrasts in impressive business looks.

The concept of luxury clothing with an exotic flair expands horizons with bright summer hues, extravagant accessories and elegant tailoring.

The idea behind the summer collection is to create sculpted silhouettes for enhanced elegance. Suit jackets, both double-breasted and two-button, have a slim-fit look and come in the finest Italian cotton fabrics. Classic seersucker and lightweight linen define the collection.

Colours of Africa add the starkest accents: sunset orange for two-button jackets and ocean blue for double-breasted models. Suits with pointed lapels emanating traditional Brit chic set new standards. The business segment embraces an unimagined kaleidoscope of colour with shades like washed magenta and medium beige.

The Hugo Boss man dons double-breasted jackets with discreet mother-of-pearl buttons and dark blue two-button suits with widely-spaced pinstripes. In the collars, cutaway and offset-colour versions abound.

This summer, high-end tailoring and business wear are driven by contrast, yet every piece still displays the hallmarks of a timeless classic. The accessories reveal a secret penchant for the dandy style. Striped neckties come in every colour combination under the rainbow, and silk paisley pocket squares are freshened up with flowers, polka dots and African prints.

Shoes too are the essence of refinement: moccasins shine in gleaming leather, derby-style dress shoes get a subtly pointed tip and suede monks sport oversized buckles.

The collection is available at the Hugo Boss store in St Julian’s, which is open from Monday to Saturday between10am and 8pm, and at Malta International Airport’s Departures Lounge. For more information or for a private appointment, call 2202 1000 or e-mail boss_store_malta@vfgmalta.com.
