Hugo Boss, the German fashion brand, has a controversial history related to World War II. During that time, the company, founded by Hugo Ferdinand Boss, manufactured uniforms for the Nazi regime, including those worn by the SS, the Wehrmacht, and the Hitler Youth. Hugo Boss himself joined the Nazi Party in 1931, which helped secure contracts for uniform production. The company's factory employed forced labor, including around 140 workers, mainly women, and prisoners of war from France.​

While Hugo Boss did not design these uniforms but rather produced them, this association has been a point of historical contention. In the late 1990s, the company acknowledged its past after investigations revealed this history. They later issued an apology and contributed to compensation funds for surviving forced laborers​.

Today, the company has distanced itself from its founder's actions and is no longer family-owned, focusing instead on its reputation as a global fashion brand.

ZORA - The warmth of the soul

This is a random photo I took on my phone.
I was visiting my friend when her mom brought her some boiled beef tongue and two pears. It was at that moment that I got the idea to take this photo and call it "Taste of Pear"

My friend's baby has cancer. I will donate all proceeds from the sale to the cure.
