In a fireside chat with Joseph, he revealed that he had to do a lot of interesting flips and jumps while being photographed for the campaign shots. Nevertheless, he’s proud to have worked with Timothy. He also gave us a peep into his duffel bag, which contained two books gifted by his father: Conquer The Pool by Olivier Poirier-Leroy and The 100-Year Life – Living and Working in an Age of Longevity by Lynda Gratton and Andrew Scott. Right after the chat, Joseph gamely accepted a VR surfing challenge and presented prizes to the top three highest scorers of the night.

The newly renovated BOSS retail space covers 409 square meters, with inviting warm wood materials and granite flooring. The store carries the latest Fall/Winter 2019 BOSS Mens and Womenswear collections including shoes and accessories.
