Creative director Glenn Martens joined Diesel in 2020, yanking the fashion brand out of its then-stale presence. What came from it? The kinkiest f-cking brand you’ve ever seen. From literal campaigns housed in “porn paradise” to its custom dildo invites to Milan Fashion Week, Martens’ joining of Diesel revolves around one word: sex-positivity.

Sex-positivity joined the world through the likes of hippies and gender studies professors in the 1970s. As for the world of fashion, sex-positivity has long been looming underneath the surface, with many designers tapping its influence — but not paying homage to the deep, kinky roots of its favorite materials and trends. For example, 2022’s obsession with “fetishcore.” Martens, on the other hand, has made sex-positivity Diesel’s mantra — cue its tagline “For Sucsexful Living.” This not only revived the brand’s influence, but elevated its clientele from stale, to chic, It girl.
