After six seasons at the helm of Diesel’s Black Gold women’s line, designer Sophia Kokosalaki (pictured) is set to part ways with the label after her New York fashion week show next month. In a statement released by Diesel, she says, “The last three years I have spent at Diesel Black Gold have been a very interesting and enjoyable experience. I am now looking forward to new challenges and wish Diesel Black Gold every success in the future.” Of her departure, Diesel founder Renzo Rosso says, “I am extremely grateful to Sophia for her work and the achievement of the growth of this line. Also, thanks to her talent, Diesel Black Gold has defined its clear identity as a premium stand-alone label.” The brand’s new designer will reportedly be announced in early October.
