Diesel and Creative Director Glenn Martens are launching a new project Diesel Library as part of the brand’s new sustainable strategy, which will be unveiled for spring/summer 2022. For his debut collection for Diesel, Glenn Martens has created a new genderless approach to design and a new strategy for denim. Diesel Library will first offer a wide range of evergreen and longer-lasting denim items, including trousers, jackets, tops and skirt, with 50 per cent of the overall denim collection having a permanent shelf life. 

Diesel Library items will be made using fibres, washes and treatments that have been selected based on efficient and responsible resource use, including the use of fabrics featuring low impact materials, such as organic and recycled fibres. In addition, treatments will be performed with innovative techniques to reduce the use of water and chemicals and trims such as leather patches will be chrome-free tanned, while metal buttons will have no-galvanised treatments and inner labels will be made with recycled materials. Cellulosic trims, including hangtags and patches, will also be realised in FSC certified materials.

Diesel Library will be unveiled during Milan Fashion Week 2021 and will be available in stores from November 2021.
