From India to Milan: Sanket Mehta’s Exclusive Front-Row Experience at Diesel & Onitsuka

Indian digital creator Sanket Mehta took the global fashion stage by storm at Milan Fashion Week 2025, becoming the only Indian creator invited to witness Diesel’s trendsetting Spring/Summer 2026 showcase and Onitsuka’s exclusive re-see presentation.
On 23rd September, Mehta attended Diesel’s buzz-worthy SS26 runway in Milan, which redefined fashion events with its striking city-wide treasure hunt concept. Models in the bold new collection emerged from giant egg shells, each displaying QR codes that offered winners limited-edition SS26 items. The interactive format captivated fashion lovers across the city and generated a surge of organic engagement. Mehta also stepped into Diesel’s high-energy after-party, mingling with the brand’s global fashion community.
Just two days later, on 25th September, Mehta was welcomed by Onitsuka for a private re-see of their upcoming collection. The following day, he explored standout creations up close, including the striking Yellow Tiger-inspired bag, footwear, and apparel—pieces that reflect Onitsuka’s evolving design vision.
Reflecting on the experience, Mehta said, “Milan Fashion Week felt surreal. Diesel’s concept was a masterclass in creative storytelling, and Onitsuka’s designs were refreshingly innovative. Witnessing these showcases firsthand inspires me to think beyond trends.”
Sanket Mehta’s presence underscored his rising stature in the global fashion arena and reinforced the growing impact of Indian creators at major international style platforms.
