Boston-based brand Bossi Sportswear by Alex Bossi unveils its latest collection designed for the Fall/Winter 2020 season. It started with inspiration from Bossi's family-run autobody shop and continues to draw inspiration from that heritage. This time around, it drops a series of clothing designs that nod to bold graphics across signature silhouettes.
There is also a strong reference to hand-painted visual aesthetics that stem from the brand's roots as well. The seasonal clothing is made in the world-famous Sterlingwear, which is recognized for creating military uniforms. One of the standout designs in the range is the crewneck sweater with dip-dyed tie-dyed detailing at the sleeves in colorful accents. The front of the piece reads "dream of me" in a playful and whimsical aesthetic.
