For Winter 2019, BOSS collaborates with Meissen to develop a limited edition collection. The capsule includes both casual pieces and formalwear for men and women in a mostly monochrome palette of black and white in holiday spirit. Founded in 1710, Meissen is a historic porcelain manufacturer with over 300 years of experience in exceptional craftsmanship, of which can be found in this latest holiday range.

The BOSS x Meissen Collection is inspired by The Big Five collection, designed by sculptor Maximilian Hagstotz, featuring the majestic “Big Five” animals – the lion, elephant, leopard, rhinoceros and Cape buffalo shown as a series of geometrical patterns. Coinciding with the artistic theme, Hugo Boss will make a donation to the charity Elephants for Africa, an organization dedicated to elephant conversation. The collection's signature look is a series of geometric patterned animal motifs that appear in embroidered, jacquard and printed form throughout, on cashmere, silk and leather accessories.

To celebrate the collection and social impact efforts, Complex styled the new BOSS x Meissen capsule providing inspiration for your holiday season.

The Fleana Relaxed-fit Sweater features a jacquard pattern and is made from 100% cashmere. Cozy and bold, the sweater is finished with deep ribbing at the cuffs, hemline and turtleneck. We paired the ivory laid-back winter staple with BOSS's classic Overlapping A-line Skirt in black and Over-the-Knee Italian Leather Boots in white.

For him, the capsule offers the Jango Slim-fit shirt in satin printed with an illustration from the Big Fives series and finished with a Kent collar and squared cuffs as well as the Automobile coat in wool and cashmere with a distinctive elephant embroidery. Guys can use a turtleneck, too, in a few colors. Pictured here is BOSS's Gideo turtleneck sweater in virgin white wool and silk.

Well-known for their impeccable attention-to-detail in suiting, BOSS provides a wide selection of holiday suit options on top of the latest collaboration. Styled here is the Double-breasted Slim-fit Suit with silk details in Dark Red. The two-piece suit is tailored and created in a mid-weight fabric with virgin wool. The double-breasted closure on the jacket elevates the suit, while the lapels and buttons get a contrasting black color for a more refined look.  Complex took a contemporary route with accessories and a black tee underneath to match.

It's never too late in the season to wear all-white, especially a suit of this caliber releasing later this holiday season, which pairs well with the iconic BOSS x Meissen silk tie embellished with an elephant embroidery. To match, we paired his white suit, with an all-black dress affair for her also releasing in coming weeks.

All of the pieces from the BOSS x Meissen capsule are interchangeable as styled here with the Automobile jacket thrown over the Extra-slim Black Blazer with the Slim-Fit Satin Printed Shirt and Slim-Fit Black Pants. Two highlight pieces for women is the Midi-length plissé skirt with collection print and scarf which pairs well with this BOSS Relaxed-Fit Leather Jacket.
