We had previously posted the FW’13 lookbook of Diesel Men’s Denim .  The cool collection’s central characteristic was   dark and grey colors,  other colors – color mutations as Diesel calls it and some classic indigo redesigned.   The women’s lookbook is also directed on similar lines with Black and Gray mutations, color mutations and some vintage pieces created with different indigo looks.  Of course, the women collection is more girlish , though seemingly no-nonsense looks.

 

Black and Gray Mutation :-

The black and gray mutations bring out the darker and grey cast colors for women as well.  Light greys, stripes , laser prints are all part of this collection.

COLOR MUTATION : –

Mutation of colors brings out some bright reds, purple, dark  turquoise and some cool mixes of browns/beige color with greys at the seams.

INDIGO & VINTAGE :-

The Indigo vintage seems to be the collection on which Diesel seems to have worked very hard. They say

“.OUR BLUE DENIM, WORKED, TREATED AND HANDCRAFETD TO CREATE A UNIQUE VINTAGE PIECE. FOR TRUE DENIM (OBSESSIVE) LOVERS, THE PROVERBIAL CRÈME DE LA CRÈME OF THE "CLASSIC BLUE" INDIGO WORLD. DESIGNED WITH A CLINICALLY INSANE PASSION, THESE HAVE BEEN CRAFTED WITH OUR MOST COMPLEX WASHES AND QUINTESSENTIAL DESIGN…..”

 

 

We had mentioned about the Diesel F/W’13 lookbook in our earlier articles , now we will have a look at their full men’s collection released for the Fall. The main and untiring focus of Diesel has been to play around with  darker shades and this Fall the focus is even more sharp with the collection having a number of jeans with Black and grey mutations of indigo. They also play with colors other than indigo – brick red,

Black and Gray Mutation

Mutation  is taken to the next level and denim evolves into still darker shades. From the lighter greys to the darkest laser skinned wash innovations are all used to complete the Black and gray mutation collection.

 

Notice how the indigo seems to be pushing its way out of seams and fly and , sort of , refusing to accept the domination of the grey color on the rest of the jeans. Just superb!

Just note the amazing 3D cloud outline , sort of doodles ,  made on the jeans – most probably with lasers. The jeans just stands apart.

COLOR MUTATION

Color mutation is all about denim changing its skin. Classic indigo evolves into treated colors, whether a laser print, a triple foaming, a fade color treatment or a new technique of coating. Different shades of blues, brick reds and even white are used.

 

BLUEEYECON

Diesel says about Blueeyecon:

“…IT IS OUR MOST ICONIC AND COMPLEX DENIM IN TERMS OF CRAFTSMANSHIP AND DETAILS. THE "CLASSIC BLUE" INDIGO WORLD.DESIGNED WITH A CLINICALLY INSANE PASSION, THESE HAVE BEEN CRAFTED WITH OUR MOST COMPLEX WASHES AND QUINTESSENTIAL DESIGN…..”

Diesel Spring Fall Winter 2012 menswear collection  is a continuation of the preview collection and its themes of  portworker and  “The thin line between old and new.”

Here are some excerpts on what Diesel has to say for their Fall Men’s Collection :

“Early Fall sees tobacco and different shades of indigo predominate. Indigo is used for denim, as well as treated corduroy pants and jackets, while tobacco sits pretty on a number of different jackets. It all has a touch of the great outdoors, particularly in hybrid boots and light bodywarmers. Not to mention  the patterned jacquard knits that create warm, unified style across sweaters, gloves, scarves and hats.”

Burgundy is the new colour of the season. It is used in a variety of knitwear styles, as well as becoming a new Color Exposure shade for denim: the reverse sides of jeans match the new knitwear. Workwear remains firmly embedded in Diesel’s DNA and naturally denim workwear is key to this collection. Whether treated and untreated, plain or striped, textured or smooth, jeans, utility jackets and overalls treat workwear with the respect it deserves.

 

For early Winter, indigo is joined by gray and green. A bright, eye-popping green is featured on the delivery’s key piece: unique knickerbockers training pants in patterned knitwear. This idea of making a classic an original – hi-tech performance vintage – is also seen in denim, where grandpa-stripe denim is coated to produce a technical, contemporary workwear look. Outerwear is quite simply premium thanks to a fascinating mix of fabrics, as seen in the hybrid jacket that combines knitwear and fake fur. Winter work apparel is also lined to feel soft and cozy while keeping you warm in the cold.
The final part of the collection takes black and redefines it in a variety of different fabrics: leather, denim, shearling and hi-tech nylon. Add a few touches of gray and white to spice things up and you have clothes that are chic and relaxed. For a Winter rock ook, there is leather in tight jackets and slinky pants, for clothes
in which you’ll want to strut your stuff. Diesel’s redefinition of what denim can be continues with its Color Exposure D.N.A. denim. Featuring delicate handmade treatments that impregnate deep into the heart of the fabric, the insides of jeans become bright features in themselves – using yarn dyed wefts or simply overdyes. Just slip them on, turn up the leg and you’ve got a whole new world of color in your denim life.
Textured Denim:
A new approach – and one that will continue in the future – is the use of textured denim, with herringbone, salt&pepper and grandpa stripes, in treated and untreated versions.   In the accessory collection is recognizable the strong and vintage Diesel DNA.
