Hugo Boss has made a key appointment at its Boss brand with Kristina Szasz named as Director Business Unit at Boss Womenswear with effect from September 1.

The company said that with “many years of extensive global experience in brand management as well as in design and product development, [she] will continue to drive the realignment of Boss Womenswear”.

The German fashion giant, in which the UK's Frasers Group has a big stake, has been rethinking its brands' overall approach in the light of changes in consumer tastes and behaviour during and after the pandemic, so it will be interesting to see how the women's arm of the Boss label is reshaped in the months and years ahead.

She’s also a board member of the Amsterdam Fashion Academy and is on the jury of the La Jolla Fashion Film Festivals (USA).
