DIESEL LAUNCHES NEW CAPSULE COLLECTION WITH DAMIANO DAVID

Italian singer-songwriter Damiano David and global ambassador of Diesel has co-designed an exclusive capsule collection with the house’s creative director Glenn Martens. Set to specifically work with the brand in a unique role as co-creator, David and Martens present a genderless collection; one that combines both the distinct style of the artist and Diesel’s spirit of self-expression and inclusivity.

Back in June, the singer was appointed as global ambassador of the brand, and since then he has defined the archetype of the Diesel man with his eclectic and bold style. The partnership represents Diesel’s vision on a contemporary masculinity that is not limited to gender expectations. Beginning in the streets of Rome and growing to international success with Måneskin and now his solo work, David is nothing short of acclaim and now his vision blends effortlessly with Diesel.

The collection features key runway reimagined with over the top proportions. Burnout jersey tops and ultra-wide-leg trousers adorned with ‘Damiano’ look as if they were torched. Denim is stretched with peel-off treatments in oversized suits, maxi skirts, and cargo’s. Exaggeration is in, and the coated wool suiting and knitwear further push this stylistic choice. The singer’s personal touch can be felt in the various prints and patchworks, which feature the artist’s own tattoos. David had previously teased the collaboration with multiple public appearances. He wore, for example, a black coated suit whilst attending the Business of Fashion 500 Gala and a black cape when he attended the Diesel SS25 runway show.

The Diesel x Damiano David capsule marks a new chapter of artistic collaboration and experimentation for the brand and is available in stores and online now.
