The ICEBERG Fall Winter 2024 collection showcases a captivating blend of dexterous patterns and contemporary flair. Plaid and herringbone patterns steal the spotlight, adorning coats with sleek leather trims and vibrant accents. Leather jackets in striking green, yellow, and black colors add a bold touch to the lineup. A notable highlight of the collection is the reversible coats, featuring raw edges and a mix of smooth faux leather and classic herringbone fabric for a modern twist. Brushed knits with intentionally long ends add texture and depth to the designs. From chic mid-calf plaid double-breasted coats to eye-catching yellow knit jackets paired with stirrup leggings, each piece exudes confidence and style. Details like faux shearling sleeves on double-breasted blazers and fringe accents on faux leather biker jackets add a playful yet sophisticated edge to the collection. Accessories, like heels with grommet details and fringe, along with leather bags sporting a glossy finish or crocodile print, play a vital role in completing the look.

Diesel’s fashion show streamed the creation process 72 hours before the event. Numerous viewers joined virtually, with their faces live-streamed at the venue, allowing interaction between the audience and models. The collection focused on layers with melting-effect clothes, thick leather, and fur. Key pieces included: shirt dresses and tank tops that appeared to melt off the models; flowy maxi dresses with ab cutouts and oversized sweatsuits; boxy leather jackets with fur hoodies and matching pants; long trenches with black and white fur; fuzzy faux fur hoodies, skirt sets, and handbags.

The collection honored ancient stone figures with black and white prints on mock neck tops, paired with oversized bangles and chunky chain necklaces.
