DIESEL SUMMER 2019

After releasing Spring—a motocross, extreme sport and retro video game-inspired collection—Diesel looks to Tokyo, Japan as its main influence for its Summer drop. Tokyo has long been central to Diesel’s aesthetic direction and overall inspiration.

 

Additionally, Summer’s look draws cues from rockabilly culture and sets the look on the street-style packed neighbourhoods of Shibuya and Shinjuku. It is a bold collection, where denim, leather and souvenir jackets are the key components. Additionally: embroidered tops and jolts of colour combined with black and grey all mix together for a defiant, wild-child appeal.

Oversized silhouettes are a defining shape for Summer, and essential pieces come in XL denim cuts, frayed or grommet-studded leather, and as jackets with novel souvenir decorating.

 

Chain jewellery shines against leather, bits of neon strobe against tees and tear-away tops, and striking sneakers are ready to hit the block. The main pattern draws inspiration from Western bandanas—it appears on skirts, shorts and shirts.

 

This is a fearless interpretation of summer for 2019—and one that speeds from the racecourse to the rock stage. It’s time to scream at the top of your lungs and party onward—and give new meaning to the term “dancing in the streets.”
