The HUGO BOSS Green collection combines expressive clothing with a premium sportswear approach. HUNTER & GATTI snapped the Spring/Summer 2015 campaign with top male model Mikkel JENSEN c/o KULT MODELS. The shots they produced underneath the clear blue Californian sky look urban, sporty and sophisticated at the same time. A combination that perfectly encapsulates the core of the BOSS Green sporty lifestyle and the current collection theme ‘Holiday in Utopia’. The focus was on details, such as water resistant fabrics or high-necked collars, inspired by water sports.
In particular, the clear design of the architecture of the terrace Sheats-Goldstein residence with its breathtaking view of the skyline of Los Angeles, inspired Spanish photographers Hunter & Gatti, who already photographed the previous BOSS Green campaigns. The Sheats-Goldstein villa, built in 1963 by the American architect John Lautner, is the home of eccentric billionaire James Goldstein, which he rents out now and again for shoots or film productions – ‘Charlie's Angels’ and ‘The Big Lebowski’ were filmed here, among others.
Cristian Hunter was an early member of Hunter & Gatti, a creative duo based in New York with an office in Barcelona, founded by Cristian Borillo and Martin Cespedes. Today, he pursues a solo career.
The two creatives had known each other for years and worked together as art directors for some of the most prestigious advertising agencies. They developed successful interactive online campaigns for fashion brands such as Burberry and Diesel.
After founding their own advertising agency specializing in the fashion industry, they ventured into the world of photography and successfully established themselves in this new career path. They worked with companies such as Hugo Boss, Kenneth Cole, Massimo Dutti, Carolina Herrera, and Guess by Marciano, as well as magazines like Vogue, Esquire, Marie Claire, and Flaunt.
Their interest in exploring new avenues in visual storytelling led them to an interesting career in fashion film. They produced commercials and short films for brands such as Kenneth Cole, Swarovski, Mango, Tous, Massimo Dutti and Guess by Marciano, whose advertising has been featured several times in New York City.
