Diesel resort 2023 buy
|
Glenn Martens, Diesel’s creative director, moves the dial on denim with the brand’s resort 2023 collection for men. The season draws ideas from the relationship between denim, utility, and pop. Martens reimagines denim with an air of irreverence
and youthfulness. “There’s a fun factor to Diesel, a joy factor,” says Martens. “The identity of Diesel is very clear and it’s not too serious, which is why I think people are obsessed with the brand all over again.” Martens adds, “When you see this pre-collection, you really understand Diesel.” Exploration, both forward-looking and reflective of the past, provides novel results. The collection’s highlight is Diesel’s signature denim items, which include timeless staples with
cutting-edge innovations. The new menswear conjures the essence of a modern Diesel that is playful, prone to pleasure, and rebellious. Reimagined in everything from suits to cargo trousers to stylish jackets, Diesel makes denim king.
 For the Diesel’s Resort 2023 collection, Glenn Martens expanded the recently-launched Diesel Rehab Denim capsule. This capsule is made from denim off-cuts, recycled cotton, and recycled elastane. Martens transformed the recycling into pieces including the season’s decadently pocketed utility pants and padded jackets. He added that a for-now exclusively Italian pilot scheme to buy-back and repurpose vintage Diesel through resale or upcycling is showing promising results. This responsible practice lends Martens Diesel ample clear-of-conscience wiggle room to play around with the brand’s ethos, which he said is: “to have fun, enjoy life, and be successful in every situation that you are in.” Highlights for sybarites included trompe-l’oeil cut jeans for women and men, ornamentally utilitarian pieces, acres of (sustainable) distressed and sometimes-waterproofed denim, retro-futuristic and logo-heavy clingy metallic knit dresses, gothically scripted skintight moto wear, and a surprising diversion into tailoring. “ “It’s not real tailoring—there’s no camel hair,” said Martens of the jackets, coats, and pants that play blue denim against a charcoal wool-mix. The first drop of this collection is timed for Christmas. With Martens at the helm, Diesel has in short order pretty much defined its new manifesto of sustainable semi-seditious sexiness.
