OUTLETCITY METZINGENPREMIUM OUTLET SHOPPING
LIKE SHOPPING? LOVE OUTLETCITY!
Somehow, the best stories come from life
itself. Like the one of Metzingen, the home-
town of Hugo Boss to the south of Stuttgart
at the foot of the Swabian Alb. In the 1970s
the textile center of the gentlemen’s tailor was
located here in an old brick factory. Originally
a quiet and unassuming sales outlet for the
staff working for the gentlemen’s tailor, today
it pulses with life as an internationally ac-
claimed shopping destination.
MORE THAN 60 INTERNATIONAL
PERMIUM BRANDS
Since then, more than 60 international pre-
mium brands like Armani, Bally, Burberry,
Coach, Escada, Hugo Boss, Max Mara,
Michael Kors and Missoni present their
merchandise in mainly fagship outlets. The
innovative architectural style of the stores has
been adapted individually to the correspond-
ing image of the brands and offers the visitors
also a good merchandise availability. In addi-
tion, the products are reduced all year by
30 – 70 % compared to the former recom-
mended retail price – this makes shopper’s
heart futter.
UNIQUE INNER-CITY LOCATION
In Metzingen, outlet shopping does not take
place in the open countryside, but is seen
as a real inner-city shopping experience. A
picturesque historic town, numerous build-
ings which are listed for preservation and a
centuries-old tradition in viniculture – this is
what visitors will find there.
TOURISTIC MAGNET
Swabian hospitality, regional and high-quality
food, the biosphere reserve in a landscape
like right out of a picture postcard as well as
numerous touristic highlights in the region
make it possible for the visitors to round off
their shopping trip with a touristic program
which offers everything – except for boredom.
SPECIAL EVENTS
Exclusive events and monthly themes like
Luxury Denim, Autumn Cocooning or
Winterdays make your visit to OUTLETCITY
METZINGEN a unique experience all year
round.

Cartier’s tortue watch was frst created in
1912, and its simple shape and understated
elegance are as appealing today as they were
a century ago. this season the design has
been gently refreshed, with more focus given
to the femininity of its curved lines. Daytime
models feature supple leather straps, while
the stunning evening versions are available in
white or rose gold. On each, the face remains
a constant, its elliptical shape decorated with
Roman numerals and sword-shaped hands.
this white gold tortue is as luxurious as they
come, with a face surrounded by diamonds
totalling 1.5 carats, and is guaranteed to never
go out of style. hl

STYLISH SCENTS
Mercedes-Benz might be known for its motoring talents, but the German company is proving equally skilled at creating fragrances. Its foray into scent reveals the same traits that make its cars so desirable – timeless style, superior quality and a design-led attitude – and builds on the brand’s background as the main sponsor of the Fashion Weeks in New York, Berlin and Beijing. The frst fragrance for men, which has been created in collaboration with master perfumer Olivier Cresp, is sophisticated and confdent. Fresh citrus top notes of Calabrian bergamot and Italian mandarin are combined with a warming blend of bourbon pepper, nutmeg, cedarwood and vetiver to produce a sharp, fresh scent that’s also dynamic and uplifting. Developed in collaboration with perfumer Michel Almairac, the frst fragrance for women is a fresh and fowery scent with many layers, the unusual combination of mimosa and violet complemented by hints of bergamot. irsDouglas, Königstrasse 28, 70173 Stuttgart, +49 (0)711 295835, douglas.de

BORN TO SHINE
It would be fair to say that Kim-Eva Wempe has jewellery in her blood. Born into the Wempe family, which owns one of Germany’s leading fne jewellery and watch companies, she grew up in a world of precious metals and beautiful stones. Driven by the desire to keep her family’s business fresh and modern, she introduced her own line of jewellery, By Kim. Ofering beautiful and luxurious pieces inspired by and created for powerful and sensual women, the By Kim line skilfully plays with shapes and materials to create jewellery with a contemporary elegance. This opulent cocktail ring is eye-catching and luxurious enough for even the most special of occasions, while the simple lines and unfussy aesthetic mean it can also be worn every day. Each piece of jewellery by Wempe is made to last and made to be loved, and the classic style of this diamond ring will transcend seasons and remain a favourite for years to come, making it the perfect gift for that special someone. hlWempe,Königstrasse 41, 70173 Stuttgart, +49 (0)711 223 8090, wempe.com

Modular matrix shirts, a cut-to-perfection suit and handmade accessories: today’s business executive has exacting sartorial standards – and Stuttgart is well placed to satisfy them, says Ruairidh Pritchard

up a made-to-measure suit, expertly cut shirt,

German tailor Felix W launched in the
city in 2008 and uses what it calls a ‘modular
matrix’ – where clients try on diferent
combinations of ready-made components until
everything fts – to create beautiful made-
to-measure businesswear. The process is
refreshingly straightforward; customers work
with Felix W’s specialist team of style advisers
to create their ideal shirt (or, indeed, suit) from
the extensive range of high-quality fabrics
and fnishings, selecting their preferred cut,
collar, cufs and perhaps a discreet monogram.

Stuttgart is one of the best cities for on-point business style, where you can pick up a made-to-measure suit, expertly cut shirt, personalised belt and handmade shoes, often in the same afternoon
Skilled makers at the Heilbronner Strasse
workshop then use the information to create
the fnished garment, all in record time.
Another of Stuttgart’s bespoke havens is
Buckles and Belts on Calwer Strasse. The store
is committed to changing the way customers
view one of the most overlooked accessories,
the humble belt. In the store, visitors will fnd
a vast array of the fnest Italian leather belt
straps in a variety of colours and hides, ready
to be matched to their chosen buckle – perhaps
a bold embossed brass plate or a simple,
understated silver box frame.
When it comes to fnding frst-class footwear,
one of the best places to go is Ludwig Reiter.
Its Stuttgart store, also on Calwer Strasse,
is flled with beautiful handmade shoes, all
crafted by the brand’s own team of highly
skilled shoemakers. The brand still adheres
to the exacting manufacturing principles laid
down by its eponymous founder in 1885; all
Ludwig Reiter shoes follow between 200 and
300 individual production processes, from
stencilling the leather and stitching the cuts
together to joining the upper to the sole and
leather fnishing.
What sets Ludwig Reiter apart from other
shoemakers is its welting process, whereby
the leather upper and the inner sole are sewn
together using a continuous leather strip –

Stuttgart offers busy executives a wealth of high-quality, luxury and bespoke clothing options that combine craftsmanship with hi-tech know-how
the welt – before the edging and the leather
outer sole are then joined by a second
seam. This means the leather upper and the
outer sole are indirectly connected to one
another, allowing unrivalled fexibility and
comfort. It’s a traditional process, and one
that many other shoemakers have abandoned
as time has passed.
While expertly cut shirts, well-chosen
accessories and handmade shoes are all
essentials, the largest component of a successful
business outft is undoubtedly the suit, and
just to the south of Stuttgart is the town where
one of the most prominent German tailors was
founded. Hugo Boss began creating suits in
Metzingen almost a century ago, and today his
eponymous label is one of the most successful
German designer brands in the world.
SHOP | 35
For autumn/winter 2014/15, the brand’s
Boss label has taken its inspiration from
Scandinavian minimalism, resulting in a ready-
to-wear collection focused on precision and
contemporary design. Pieces include double-
breasted boxy jackets, graphite grey pinstripe
suits and workwear-inspired button-down
shirts alongside cufed slim-cut trousers, all
in a polar-inspired palette of ocean blues and
Arctic greys.
Hugo Boss’s seasonal collections are at
the forefront of German fashion. For those
wanting something more individual, however,
there’s also the brand’s made-to-measure
service. This ofers customers the opportunity
to experience the fusion of classic artisanship
and cutting-edge technology that goes into
a bespoke suit handmade by the label’s master
tailors at its store on Stuttgart’s Königstrasse.
With an array of the fnest fabrics, linings
and buttons in diferent colours to choose from,
clients will fnd that assembling their very
own Boss made-to-measure suit is a genuine
creative endeavour, resulting in a fnal product
that is the perfect refection of its owner.
The customer’s signature is even embroidered
inside the jacket and waistband – the ultimate
testimony of the suit’s uniqueness.
What’s evident is that Stuttgart ofers busy
executives a wealth of high-quality, luxury and
bespoke clothing options that combine German
craftsmanship and hi-tech know-how, making

From luxury luggage to standout smartphones, Porsche Design is responsible for a wide range of desirable pieces. Hamish Monk visits the German label
Fashion and functionality are sometimes
mutually exclusive: in many cases, they can
be polar opposites. However, when it comes
to design that is practical as well as beautiful,
the Germans are experts. Buying German has
been a priority for many car lovers for decades,
with Porsche being the go-to sports model for
motor enthusiasts the world over.
More recently, Porsche’s line of clothing
and accessories has brought fashionable
consumers around to the idea of buying
German. The collection was introduced in
1972 by Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, the
founder of the renowned car. Relaunched in
2003 as Porsche Design, the collection now

encompasses luggage, timepieces, homeware
and eyewear. Electronic products are also
included under the umbrella, such as a
range of high-end stainless steel BlackBerry
smartphones: the most recent, the P’9982,
is available in an array of fnishing options,
including a body which is backed with Italian
leather or with crocodile leather.
In 2010 Porsche Design launched its
selection of engineered leather products,
created through high-quality craftsmanship.
The collection has featured a leather jacket
made from nappa lambskin, which was
so exclusive it was limited to 200 pieces
worldwide. Other items include a duvet jacket
in super-soft kidskin suede and the Tec Flex
leather jacket, which incorporates covered
zip-pockets and loops for headphone cables.

Speaking about why the engineered
leather range stands out, Dr Juergen Gessler,
Porsche Design’s CEO, says, ‘It creates an
uncompromising link between functionality
and aesthetics and fts seamlessly into our
product portfolio. Our concept remains
unchanged: we don’t follow trends, we set
our own accents. The result is that our
version of casual chic makes our fashion
collections unique.’
Perhaps the best example of the brand’s
seamless combination of functionality and
fashion is its signature handbag, the TwinBag.
Created using the most exclusive leathers
and expertly crafted by artisans in Florence,
the TwinBag’s main distinguishing feature
is its innovative carrying concept – adjustable
handles which allow the bag to be carried either

as a traditional handbag or as a shoulder bag.
Each bag is produced from a single piece
of leather, which is then expertly stitched by
hand. The lining is made from the softest
Alcantara material and the metal fttings,
including chrome, silver, white gold and rose
gold, are fnished using advanced electroplating
procedures. This is the perfect combination
of Italian craftsmanship and German design.
The success of the TwinBag resulted in
a collaboration with the Berlin-based painter
Thierry Noir, who took the TwinBag and
incorporated his own signature handpainted
‘heart faces’ to create a special edition which
was presented at the 2013 Art Basel Miami
Beach, before being made available to purchase
from a handful of Porsche Design stores
around the world.
‘The speed of modern life has changed our

It’s clear that Porsche Design still follows the principles set by its founder ... where the form is not only functional, and perhaps obvious, but also beautiful
perception of the world and the only logical
conclusion is the combination of minimalist
design and functionality,’ says Porsche Design’s
creative director Thomas Steinbrueck.
‘Therefore, we have created a look that works
in harmony with this new living environment.
Structured but not constructed. Casual and
formal at the same time. In particular, we
have used the latest techniques of materials
development for the production of familiar
and yet forward-looking cuts.’
Four decades after its creation, it’s clear
that Porsche Design still follows the principles
set by its founder, who maintained that ‘if
you analyse the function of an object, its form
often becomes obvious’. In the case of Porsche
Design, the form is not only functional, and
perhaps obvious, but also beautiful

30: Dressed To Impress
Встречают по одежке
Накрахмаленные рубашки, шикарные костюмы и эксклюзивные аксессуары: современная бизнес элита предъявляет к одежде бескомпромиссно высокие требования, и Штутгарт просто идеальное место, для того, чтобы их удовлетворить, – считает Руайрид Притчард
Первое впечатление играет важную роль в деловых отношениях. День современного бизнесмена может начаться в Дубае, а закончится в Дюссельдорфе, но, несмотря на это, его внешний вид всегда должен оставаться на высоте. Возможно, лучшим примером города, который может
Русский ПеРеводудовлетворить все нужды деловых туристов, является Штутгарт. Здесь с легкостью можно найти шикарный костюм, сделанный по технологии made-to-measure, подобрать идеальную рубашку, ремень и обувь ручной работы, но самое главное – все это можно сделать буквально за несколько часов.
Немецкое ателье Felix W появилось в городе в 2008 году и предлагает клиентам услугу под названием «modular matrix», подразумевающую поочередную примерку различных комбинаций одежды до тех пор, пока не найдется подходящий вариант. Процесс достаточно прост: стилисты Felix W помогают клиенту выбрать различные детали рубашки (или костюма), включая тип ткани, отделку, крой, воротник, манжеты и даже сдержанную монограмму. Затем на основе полученной информации квалифицированные портные этого ателье, расположенного на Heilbronner Strasse, в рекордное время создают готовый продукт.
Buckles and Belts – еще одно популярное ателье, расположенное на Calwer Strasse. Посетив его, вы наверняка пересмотрите свое отношение к одному из главных мужских аксессуаров – ремню. В магазине представлен широкий спектр лучших итальянских ремней различных оттенков и отделки, к которым можно подобрать любую пряжку или застежку.
Когда речь заходит о первоклассной обуви, одним из лучших мест для ее поиска, пожалуй, будет магазин Ludwig Reiter, также расположенный на Calwer Strasse. Здесь представлена изумительная коллекция обуви ручной работы, выполненная профессиональными мастерами бренда. Компания, основанная Людвигом Райтером в 1885 году, придерживается строгих принципов производства: процесс создания отдельной модели включает 200-300 различных этапов: от нанесения узора на кожу через трафарет и сшивания отдельных деталей до соединения заготовки с подошвой и полировки кожи.
57
Обувь Ludwig Reiter от других марок отличает процесс бортовки, при котором кожаный верх сначала пришивают к стельке при помощи полоски кожи, а затем уже и к подошве. Таким образом, верх и подошва не закрепляются напрямую, что придает обуви больше гибкости и комфорта. Это традиционный прием, о котором многие производители обуви уже благополучно позабыли.
Помимо идеально подогнанной рубашки, оригинальных аксессуаров и качественной обуви, одной из основных составляющих делового образа естественно является костюм. К югу от Штутгарта, в городе Метцинген, расположена одна из самых влиятельных немецких компаний – Hugo Boss. Хьюго Босс начал заниматься пошивом костюмов почти столетие тому назад, и сегодня его бренд является одним из самых успешных в мире.
В сезоне осень-зима 2014/15 марка Boss решила искать вдохновение в скандинавском минимализме, в результате чего коллекция получилась прецизионной и современной. В нее вошли двубортные блейзеры, костюмы в серую полоску и рубашки на пуговицах в стиле рабочей одежды наряду с приталенными брюками ярко-голубого и светло-серого цвета.
Сезонные коллекции Hugo Boss
представляют авангард немецкой моды. Для тех же, кто предпочитает что-нибудь более индивидуальное бренд предлагает услуги made-to-measure. Это дает покупателям возможность воспользоваться преимуществами как классических традиций, так и самых современных технологий, объединенных для пошива превосходных костюмов на заказ в штутгартском магазине марки на Königstrasse. Теперь клиенты смогут сами принять участие в выборе мельчайших деталей своего костюма, начиная от ткани и подкладки и заканчивая пуговицами самых невероятных оттенков. В результате их ждет продукт, который будет идеальным отражением своего владельца. В дополнение ко всему внутренняя сторона пиджака и пояса брюк может быть украшена личной подписью клиента, что еще больше подчеркнет уникальность костюма.
Как видно, Штутгарт предлагает деловым людям широчайший выбор качественной и роскошной одежды, которая сочетает немецкое мастерство и техническое ноу-хау. А поэтому город будет идеальным местом для всех, кто хочет обновить свой гардероб.felixw.de, bucklesbelts.com, ludwig-reiter.com, hugoboss.com

36: In Focus: Porsche Design
В фокусе: Porsche Design
Хамиш Монк рассказывает о немецком бренде Porsche Design, на счету которого множество дизайнерских предметов – от роскошных чемоданов до стильных смартфонов
Считается, что мода и функциональность находятся на противоположных полюсах и взаимно исключают друг друга. Однако, когда речь идет о практичном и одновременно красивом дизайне, немецкие бренды неизменно оказываются в лидерах. Выбирать немецкое – это стало правилом для многих поклонников хороших автомобилей, поскольку именно Porsche всегда воплощал идеал спортивной модели в глазах миллионов людей по всему миру.
В 1972 году создатель знаменитого
автомобиля Фердинанд Александер Порше представил под брендом Porsche коллекцию одежды и аксессуаров – и тем самым заразил идеей выбирать немецкое и знатоков моды. С 2003 года серия выходит под маркой Porsche Design, и теперь ее дополнили чемоданы, часы, домашняя утварь и оправы для очков. Компания также занимается разработкой дизайна электронных устройств. Особое место среди них занимают технологичные смартфоны BlackBerry из нержавеющей стали: например, новая модель P’9982 доступна в корпусе из итальянской кожи, кожи аллигатора и других роскошных материалов.
В 2010 году бренд Porsche Design открыл собственную серию кожаной одежды и аксессуаров высочайшего качества. Ее вершиной стал жакет из мягкой кожи ягненка, эксклюзивность которого подтверждается тиражом:
59
выпущено всего 200 экземпляров на весь мир. Кроме того, особого внимания в этой коллекции достойны куртка-пуховик из лайковой замши и кожаный жакет Tec Flex с карманами на молнии и петлями для наушников.
Доктор Юрген Гесслер, исполнительный директор Porsche Design, точно определяет уникальность этой коллекции: «Она создает безусловную связь между функциональностью и эстетикой и органично вплетается в нашу концепцию. Базовая идея остается неизменной: мы не следуем за модными веяниями, а расставляем собственные акценты. И наше понимание повседневной роскоши придает коллекциям одежды уникальность».
Пожалуй, наиболее эффектно стиль и функция слились в фирменной модели TwinBag. Наибольший интерес представляет ее основная конструктивная особенность –
регулируемые по длине ручки: закрепленные особым образом, они позволяют носить сумку и в руках, и через плечо. Лучшие мастер Флоренции вкладывают все свои умения в тщательную ручную обработку цельных кусков эксклюзивных видов кожи. Для подкладки используется мягчайшее волокно алькантара, а металлическая гарнитура из хрома, серебра, белого и розового золота обрабатывается с помощью гальванических воздействий. В результате, TwinBag гармонично объединяет итальянское мастерство и немецкий дизайн.
Сумка оказалась востребованной, и следующим этапом стало сотрудничество Porsche Design с берлинским художником Тьерри Нуаром: он вручную расписал TwinBag своими знаменитыми стилизованными сердцами. Обновленная версия легендарной модели была презентована на ярмарке Art Basel Miami Beach в 2013 году, а затем поступила в ассортимент избранных салонов Porsche Design в разных городах.
«Современный ритм жизни изменил наше отношение к миру, и единственной адекватной реакцией на это может быть сочетание минималистского дизайна и функциональности, - размышляет креативный директор Porsche Design Томас Штайнбрюк. – Таким образом, созданный нами образ оказался созвучен этому новому стилю жизни: понятный, но не искусственный, повседневный и одновременно официальный. В частности, мы применяем новейшие техники обработки материалов, поэтому наши модели кажутся и хорошо знакомыми, и в то же время авангардными».
Вот уже четыре десятилетия Porsche Design по-прежнему следует дизайнерскому принципу своего основателя: «Чтобы создать форму объекта, необходима внимательно рассмотреть его функцию». И эта компания своим опытом последовательно подтверждает: форма должна быть не только функциональной, но и красивой. porsche-design.com

从豪华的行李箱到出色的智能手机，保时捷设
计缔造了诸多让人垂涎三尺的单品。我们的编辑
Hamish Monk拜访了这个德国品牌
时尚和功用性有时候相互排斥：在很多情况下，它们
可以成为对立的两极。然而在谈到既实用又美观的
设计时，德国人就是专家。几十年来，购买德国制造
一直是许多汽车爱好者优先考虑的选择，而保时捷
更是成为了全世界机车狂热者眼中跑车的典范。
最近，保时捷的服装和配饰产品线又让时尚消
费者们开始考虑购买德国制造。该系列是由这个著
36: In Focus: Porsche Design
聚焦：保时捷设计
名的跑车品牌创始人费迪南德·亚历山大·保时捷
（Ferdinand Alexander Porsche）在1972年推出
的，并在2003年以“保时捷设计”的名义重新发布。
现在，这个系列的产品包括行李箱、腕表、家居用品
和眼镜。电子产品也被囊括在内，比如各种高端不
锈钢的黑莓智能手机：最新推出的P ’9982系列有
多款机身饰面可供选择，其中包括意大利皮革和鳄
鱼皮的手机背面。
2010年，保时捷设计推出了其由高品质制造工
艺打造的精选设计皮革产品。该系列的其中一款主
打产品是一件由纳帕小羊皮制作的皮夹克，这款尊
贵独享的夹克全世界仅限量200件。其他的单品包
括了一款由超软小山羊皮绒面制造的羽绒外套和
Tec Flex皮夹克，后者更是将有盖拉链口袋和耳机
线圈结合在一起。
在谈到为什么设计皮革系列可以脱颖而出的原
因时，保时捷设计的CEO于尔根·盖斯勒（Juergen
Gessler）博士说：“它在功用性和美学之间创造了
不折不扣的联系，可以和我们的产品组合无缝连
接。我们的理念保持不变：我们不追随潮流，我们只
创造属于自己的品味。其结果是，随意潇洒的风格让
我们的服装系列独一无二。”
最能够展示出该品牌将功用性与时尚无缝对
接的例子可能是其招牌手袋——TwinBag。采用
最高档的皮革为原料，经过佛罗伦萨工匠们的精雕
细琢，TwinBag最显著的特点是其创新的携带概
念——可调节式手柄可以让这款包既可以作为传统
的手袋使用，又可以被当作肩包。
每一款包都是由一整块单独的皮革制成的，
然后由娴熟的工 匠手工缝制。内衬由最柔软的
Alcantara材料制成，金属配件则包括铬、银、白金
及玫瑰金，并采用先进的电镀工艺抛光。这堪称意
大利工艺和德国设计的完美结合。
TwinBag的成功促成了保时捷与柏林画家蒂
埃里·比诺（Thierry Noir）的合作。比诺将自己
招牌的手绘“心形脸”融入到TwinBag里，创作出
TwinBag特别版，并在2013年的巴塞尔迈阿密艺
术博览会展出。随后这款特别版的包在全世界选定
的保时捷设计专卖店出售。
“现代生活的速度改变了我们对世界的看法，
唯一合乎逻辑的结论是要将简约的设计与功用性相
结合。”保时捷设计的创意总监托马斯·施泰因布吕
克（Thomas Steinbrueck）说，“因此，我们创立了
一种风格，可以与新的生活环境和谐共存。它有结
构但又不能被定形，可以同时兼具休闲与正式。特别
是，我们运用了最新的材料研发技术，用于生产既让
人熟悉、又具有前瞻性的剪裁。”
在保时捷设计创立后的四十年，很显然它仍然
遵循了其创立者所设定的设计原则，是他主张“如
果分析一个物体的功能，其形式会变得显而易见”。
