Diesel Black Gold S/S 2017
Mood board: A palette of blush tones settled over the Diesel Black Gold runway, dusting the collection with a new powdery, softness and adding a lovely pared-down look to the brand's typical locked and loaded, street/action gear.
Best in show: The show looked great as a package, morphing from skin tones to black and crisp white. The best pieces were in the white section where crackling cottons and tufts of romantic eyelet were cut into short, sassy skirts and peasant style dresses.
Finishing touches: There wasn't a high heel in sight in this show.  Flat, knee length canvas boots came splintered into a maze of lacings while open toed booties were tied up in intricate strings and straps.
