Hmm... What can I say about this collection? I'm not gonna lie. I went through these pictures with not much excitement. Rather, I was almost... bored. I know! I know! It's weird. The Jason Wu collection made me quite excited to see this one simply because everything was how I like it and Wu spent quite a bit of time in the Hugo Boss offices. The clothing at Hugo is often no fuss. Simple, clean lines and pure. I throw the word pure around and its probably because I view clothes with no major patters or fabrics as such. It's very simple to pair pure, calm clothing with louder pieces and odd fabrics. Hence me saying pure in almost every post with minimalistic clothing. Hugo is very lady like and business attire friendly. These are a few of my favorite pieces. The suit was perfect. Masculine with a something saying feminine as well. My favorite look is the top/skirt combinations as well as the dresses. The pilgrim-esque shoes offer a rather 'give thanks' look and the duffel-y bowler bags are in black with white stitch that adds a nice contrast. The tops and collared dresses all have pilgrim collars and perhaps the sullen model makes me think of luxury Mayflower cruise with Columbus? The silver/lightest blue in the world dress is very modern. Actually one of the most modern items I saw in the whole collection. Very now with it's thin straps and backless-ness. The cream sweater and white maxi skirt is of course on of my go to combos when I go out so I definitely have no qualms about that. All in all, I did expect a bit more with this collection. The clothes do seem quite repeated as if I have seen it done over and over in different brands. Well... better luck next time!
