About HUGO
HUGO was split from BOSS in 1993 as a younger, less formal line at lower prices. The two names come from the founder Hugo Boss, so the company divided one man's name into two brands aimed at different customers. The split let the company keep formal tailoring and casual clothing under separate names, which mattered as workplace dress codes relaxed through the 2000s.
