DIESEL BLACK GOLD FALL/WINTER 2012 MILAN FASHION WEEK


Diesel Black Gold brought us their very first Milan Fashion Week showing. Taking a crack at high-fashion the label delivered the kinds of looks you almost expect. They make thorough use of stripes, leather and velvet, thrown in with heavy knits, coloured suits and fashion pants worn by edgy models with tattoos. While their attempts were brave and executed for the most part I do have my reservations when it comes to fit. If it was their plan forgive me, but I think the suits could have been better tailored because it makes it a little sloppy. A blue suit with sleek long lapels? Awesome, but I'd have the pants taken in a little below the knee.
