Germany’s Boss & David Beckham return with refined FW25 collaboration
“We were incredibly excited to work with David again for this second chapter of BECKHAM x BOSS. The collection presents a natural evolution of our debut collaboration. It lets David’s personal style shine through, while keeping a classic BOSS feeling at its core. We have worked hand in hand with him to curate a wardrobe that is versatile and elegant, perfect for both the city—and the great outdoors,” said Marco Falcioni, SVP of Creative Direction at HUGO BOSS.
“I love this time of year, the layering, accessories and clothes that are stylish yet comfortable. Right from the early stages of development I wanted to create a collection inspired by the feeling I get when I am at home in the countryside in the colder months. With my second collection with BOSS, we’ve put a strong focus on textures and materials that give classic pieces a fresh, modern feel,” said David Beckham.
Tailoring, Reimagined
Tailoring takes center stage in this collection, revisited in rich, sophisticated fabrics and fresh colors, with a focus on versatility. The suiting look features a sharp-shouldered jacket with a defined torso, complemented with the collection’s signature mid-waisted, tapered trousers. Sumptuous cashmere as well as cotton corduroy and virgin wool in brown, burgundy, and soft cream bring a winter-ready feel, whether interpreted as a stand-alone blazer or coordinating two-piece. A checked wool flannel ensemble in gray—styled with a double-breasted jacket and tapered trousers—offers an elegant option for formal moments at work and beyond. Everyday shirting in blue cotton poplin and gray cotton jersey provides a put-together finish.
Elevated Essentials for Off-Duty Days
David’s considered approach to tailoring extends to his off-duty wardrobe, where everyday essentials are elevated. Just in time for cooler days, a wide array of chunky knits with a distinctly British flair steal the spotlight, offering bold textures and cozy comfort. From the smooth touch of a plain knit to ribbed and cable knits, the knitwear pieces feature bold, textured constructions in neutral hues like dark brown and navy, adding interest and tactility to relaxed looks. Crew necks and zip-up designs are made for layering, while soft cashmere roll necks in burgundy and chalky beige remain firm winter favorites.
Trousers That Do It All
Sophistication meets casual cool with pleat-front trousers in brushed cotton and wool flannel, available in autumnal tones of brown, green, and beige. For a more relaxed vibe, dark blue cotton cargo pants and classic-fit jeans in an authentic wash are the perfect go-to. These pieces promise versatility and timeless appeal for every occasion.
Outerwear To Keep Up With Every Move
Whether you’re navigating city streets or braving the great outdoors, the collection’s outerwear has you covered. A black raw denim jacket, inspired by workwear, features a refined brown cotton cord collar, and a luxurious cashmere-wool blend liner—perfect as a lightweight option for transitional layering, alongside a bonded parka with technical rainproof fabric and taped seams. For a touch of luxury, bomber jackets in sporty nylon, cashmere-wool blends, and sueded shearling deliver refined off-duty vibes. A standout addition is the vintage-inspired trucker jacket in dark brown nubuck leather, complete with a cream shearling collar for added flair.
Finishing Touches That Make A Statement
Rugged workwear-inspired boots, sleek leather Chelsea boots, and updated cold-weather sneakers anchor the footwear lineup. In addition, a carefully curated selection of neckwear, hats, bags, and small leather goods crafted from premium materials like silk, wool-cashmere blends, and suede.
The Campaign
Shot by the legendary Mert and Marcus, the campaign brings the collection to life in the grand setting of an 18th-century London mansion. The stripped-back, stately-home backdrop perfectly mirrors the collection’s ethos: a harmonious blend of heritage and modernity. Art-directed by Team Laird, the visuals showcase David‘s aesthetic: effortlessly stylish and undeniably iconic.

South Korea’s Misto Holdings completes planned leadership transition
The transition marks the formal handover of executive leadership to President and CEO Keun-Chang (Kevin) Yoon, reinforcing management continuity while preserving the founder’s long-term strategic vision.
Misto Holdings founder Gene Yoon has transitioned to honorary chairman in a planned leadership succession, formally handing executive control to president and CEO Kevin Yoon.
The founder, who expanded the group through the FILA global trademark acquisition and the takeover of Acushnet, will continue guiding long-term strategy as the rebranded Misto focuses on governance and sustainable growth.
Gene Yoon founded the business that would become Misto Holdings in the early 1990s, introducing the FILA brand to the Korean market and later leading a series of transformative transactions. In 2007, the company acquired the global FILA trademark rights through a leveraged buyout, followed by the 2011 acquisition of Acushnet Company, owner of the Titleist and FootJoy brands. The transaction was among the largest cross-border deals in Korea’s consumer sector at the time and significantly expanded the group’s global footprint.
Under his leadership, the company evolved into a multi-brand global portfolio spanning sportswear, golf equipment and apparel, generating approximately USD 3.08 billion in annual revenue.
As Honorary Chairman, Gene Yoon will remain closely engaged with the company, providing guidance on long-term strategy and global portfolio development while supporting management from a broader strategic perspective.
The leadership transition marks a new chapter under President and CEO Kevin Yoon, who has spent nearly two decades in senior roles across the group’s global operations, building deep operational and strategic expertise.
The company’s 2025 rebranding to “Misto” underscores its evolution into a global brand house focused on disciplined capital allocation, enhanced shareholder returns and sustainable long-term growth.
“Building on the founder’s legacy, our priority is to expand our global portfolio, strengthen governance and deliver sustainable value creation,” said Kevin Yoon, President and CEO of Misto Holdings.

Sri Lanka’s apparel exports down 2.6% in January 2026
Total apparel shipments fell by 2.66 per cent year on year to $425.44 million in January 2026, compared with $437.07 million in the corresponding month of 2025. The performance underscored uneven global demand conditions that continue to influence sourcing patterns and order flows for Sri Lankan manufacturers.
Sri Lanka’s apparel exports declined 2.66 per cent YoY to $425.44 million in January 2026 amid weak global demand.
Shipments to the US and EU softened, while the UK remained stable with slight growth.
Other markets saw sharper contraction.
JAFF highlighted DCTS benefits and tariff changes while suggesting diversification and efficiency to sustain competitiveness.
Exports to the United States, the country’s largest market, decreased by 2.73 per cent to $165.11 million, while shipments to the European Union excluding the United Kingdom, declined by 1.93 per cent to $126.99 million. In contrast, exports to the UK remained broadly stable, rising marginally by 0.23 per cent to $61.71 million. Apparel shipments to other markets dropped more sharply by 6.07 per cent to $71.63 million.
JAAF noted that the UK’s steady performance offers a constructive signal for the sector, particularly as the revised Developing Countries Trading Scheme (DCTS), effective January 1, 2026, is expected to enhance sourcing flexibility and strengthen Sri Lanka’s competitive position in the British market.
The industry body also highlighted the introduction of a uniform 10 per cent temporary tariff in the US market as a relatively supportive development, reducing the impact of previously higher country-specific rates and providing greater short-term pricing predictability for exporters.
Commenting on the January outcome, JAAF said the moderate decline reflects ongoing volatility in global demand. The association emphasised that the industry remains committed to reinforcing resilience through market diversification, product innovation and operational efficiency, while collaborating with stakeholders to sustain Sri Lanka’s standing as a reliable apparel sourcing destination.
