This is the second in my set of reviews for Diesel’s new line of denim. If you have read my previous review you will know that Diesel have been relaunching their women’s jeans collection to ensure they adapt to the ever changing luxury denim market. Their new “Fit Your Attitude” collection features several staple styles in various washes and colours and this review is about their skinniest leg style which is called the Grupee and I chose a light-grey wash named 0885J.

Open bar aside, we suspect the Golden Globes uncork more fun than other awards shows because it’s the first big one: After a long dry spell away from the public eye, celebrities are itching to get out there and exorcise some fashion demons. Or welcome in a couple new ones, as the case may be. We sorted through the whole photo pile (see a complete gallery of all the attendees here) and picked for your perusal the outfits that stood out the most — for their merits, their misguidedness or their plain old unadulterated crazy.

From the same generation of designers as Diesel and MET, Italian lifestyle brand Devergo, based in Budapest, has been around since 1980. They have maintained the brand’s philosophy from day one up until today. The brand is aimed at the very young, hip crowd that invests heavily in different washes of the otherwise very basic denim.

This latest piece of Sneaker News can be filed under long overdue, given how many different connections were in place without this particular configuration being released until 2012. The Dunk has been done by Nike Sportswear with vulcanized soles in recent years, as have a number of successful Nike SB models.
