Boss Walks Out of the Office for Its Spring/Summer 2025 Collection
Set at the Palazzo del Senato in Milan, models showcased looks from the work/life balanced-inspired show.
In a lush garden oasis at the Palazzo del Senato in Milan, models walked on a winding, mirrored path, unveiling Boss’s spring/summer 2025 collection, supposedly to clock out for the day. Concrete columns behind the botanical scenery spotlighted the contrasting elements of the new collection: formalities around corporate dress codes and after-five escapism.
Staged at the Palazzo del Senato in Milan and under the theme “Out of Office,” the collection showcased understated sophistication in earthy tones and deconstructed corporate dressing—a pivot from last year’s back-to-the-office corporate attire and technology in full force.
Notable fabrics were wool, silk, and leather, and shoes included Italian leather sneakers and mule-style heels that one could easily slip into, with most styles having rounded toes—a contrast to the sharp points and squares in last year’s collection.
Marco Falcioni, senior vice-president of creative direction at Hugo Boss, said the reiteration of the suit—the epitome of Boss’s tailoring heritage—has a softer approach, using lighter fabrics and fluid silhouettes. “This is a reset: A real Boss is empowered and self-confident; they know when to log off and claim back their time, go out and relax, free from the hierarchy of rules and regulations.”
Forgoing rigidity and structure, the looks are a lesson in styling for work/life balance. Multilayered relaxed looks inspired by pyjamas and dressing gowns are paired with classic tailored suiting and sporty accessories such as tennis racket bags—ideal for the person who aims for an easy transition from office hours to postwork gatherings or activities.
