Diesel Glasses and Eyewear

Diesel is an ambitious brand created by Renzo Rosso by rebranding the denim company Moltex in 1978 to make a truly authentic Italian brand. The company hasn't chased new trends and stood true to its roots to manufacture vintage jeans that looked worn. Being a leader in jeanswear production, the brand uses a retrospective approach and fills its clothes, accessories, and footwear for men and women with a spirit of passion and individuality. Diesel is a sign of rebels who ignore fashion forecasts and come with their unique products from creative and tasteful designers who inspire every item with inner power, uniqueness, and personal style. The legendary Italian brand offers a wide variety of models for every taste and whim.

The advertising campaigns of Diesel do not introduce their collections directly but create the brand's message to represent the whole company as a manufacturer who stands out from the crowd and promotes self-expression, originality, and eye-catching style. One of the recent Diesel's messages is "Be Young and Stupid", and the meaning of this phrase is how the company has come to its current position: when Renzo Rosso took a "stupid" step to create a pair of jeans he wanted to have, and then he did another "stupid" step to sell those jeans to people. And here is how those few "stupid" things ended up creating a world-known company, loved by millions of people all around the globe. Bold designs, bright colors, and individual images are the main characteristics of this celebrated Italian brand.

Diesel carefully chooses the materials for its frames. They are durable and reliable, non-toxic and hypoallergenic. It is essential that the materials used are safe for the eyes and facial skin, so they can be worn for many hours during the day. But not only tactile sensations are important for the designers of the famous Italian brand. Comfort is a positive psychological sensation that a stylish and modern accessory gives. The Diesel collection features elegant designs inspired by classic shapes. Square and rectangular frames are making a comeback, taking inspiration from Butterflies and Cat-Eyes. Modern trends are moving towards universal and unisex models that suit most types of faces. The differences between the forms of frames are erased.

Classic simplicity and comfortable feel are in every Diesel accessory. This brand appeals to successful ladies and gentlemen who prefer an active lifestyle. Eyeglasses and sunglasses, created with love and care for the client, will give absolute comfort while driving, sunbathing, shopping, jogging, as well as during political debates and negotiations with business partners. Stylish and modern eyewear today is available to everyone, regardless of gender, skin color or age. Impeccable style and absolute comfort are indispensable conditions for success in any field. The reputable Italian brand has been following this principle since its inception. This is one of the main reasons for the growing popularity of Diesel.

HISTORY

Being quite a famous Italian company, Diesel manufactures its jeans as well as other apparel for women, men, and kids. The founder of the company, Renzo Rosso was interested in fashion being a teenager when he and his friend sewed the first pair of jeans using the mother’s sewing machine.  

In 1978, Rosso started his work for a company Moltex owned by Adriano Goldschmied, and produced clothes. And after several years of working for this company, Renzo took a loan from his father and bought 40% holding in the brand which was changed to Diesel. The new company started to manufacture jeans, and later in 1985, Rosso bought out Goldschmied’s interest in the new brand name for $500,000 - of course, that was an expensive price but it was worth paying every cent!

Nowadays, Diesel has 12 licenses, 15 lines, 19 subsidiaries, and over 400 stores of the company situated in 80 countries all over the globe. It uses new technologies, creates new designs, and shapes the modern world of fashionable denim. In collaboration with the Italian brand Marcolin, Diesel created a dynamic collection of incredibly stylish and contemporary eyewear offered in a wide assortment of bold images and bright hues.
