\nIt\u2019s always hard when you decide to create a new line from the bottom-up. But it was challenging that\u2019s why I did it and to be honest with you I am very proud of the product. We still can do a lot more, but this is a really good beginning.

\nWith the launch of a stand-alone store in NYC and Diesel Black Gold showing during New York fashion week: what has prompted you to throw yourself into New York this season; and how is Diesel currently received in America?<\/strong>
