The Diesel Black/Gold collection conveys a beautiful mix between over-sized garments and a vast arrangement of layers; the collection contained Parka jackets, leather coats with decorative motifs, a variation of harem like and baggy trouser along with over-sized jumpers or slim fit tops to fit in with the sporty yet bohemian Gothic tone.

The first New York Fashion Week was held to distract French fashion during World War II; Workers in the fashion industry we unable to travel to Paris. This was the perfect opportunity as before World War II, American designers were taught to rely on French couture for inspiration. The event was originally called Press Week and was organised by Publicist Eleanor Lambert who put the even together to showcase the work of American designers who's work had previously been ignored by journalists. Eleanor's work took over the world with Paris holding couture show's in 1945 and Fashion week in 1973, Milan in 1958 and London in 1984.
Fashion Week speaks volumes across the globe not only for the celebrities that attend the shows but the art and creative process behind the runways; garments taking months to create with some of the worlds most luxury fabrics and embellishments.

Influence:
"I gathered my influences from not only my current surroundings but past and present issues that we face in society. At some point we have all felt trapped, misunderstood, put down due to our gender, sexual orientation or race, caged or simply that we have to conform to what society says is right. I wanted to strip back all layers of myself with this collection, as many times I have felt all of these emotions but gathered my strength and determination from strong, fearless, independent women that have surrounded my life growing up. As I researched generations of my family I was able to depict story's and family ties going back century's to the motherland Africa. Tribes play an important role in the history of Africa and convey a strong message of power, beauty and courage. I wanted this collection to stand for the same message tribes such as the Musri have displayed for century's.
