Brand information:
Denim used to be known as a sturdy material used for workwear (ex. Levi’s), but during the 80s denim jeans and jackets became an essential part of casual fashion as well as streetwear (Marithé+François Girbaud) with many designers experimenting with alternative ways of processing denim and defining the shapes. We can thank Diesel founder Renzo Rosso for this. He sought to popularize denim and implement it in modern fashion. The majority of Diesels ‘success is most likely due to their creative marketing – which actually has a few things in common with Comme des Garçons’ approach – e.g. Diesel made a campaign in 1997 that showed what were supposed to be North Koreans reading newspaper ads with Diesel denim on the front page. Controversial and ignorant? Yes… but it seems to have worked.
