DRENKROM x Dragvolution: Queer Performance and Fashion

DRENKROM has always existed close to underground culture — the places where fashion, performance, and community naturally meet. One of those spaces is the drag stage. Recently, Shiva S’Lake, member of the Budapest-based drag collective Dragvolution, wore a dress she made herself, with DRENKROM prints during a performance, bringing the piece to life in the way it was always meant to exist: bold, unapologetic, and on stage. We first connected with the Dragvolution crew during our Make Hungary Gay Again campaign, where fashion and activism came together in support of queer visibility. Seeing DRENKROM pieces continue their journey through performance and drag culture feels like a natural extension of that collaboration. About Dragvolution The Dragvolution collective was founded in Budapest

DRENKROM Valentine’s Giveaway-Our First One Ever

🖤 We’ve never done a giveaway before. Not because we didn’t want to, but because DRENKROM has always been a very personal, small, hands-on project. Every piece is designed, sourced, and made with care, and for a long time, we preferred to keep things intimate and slow. But 2025 changed a lot for us. Over the last year, our community grew more than we ever expected. We met so many new people in Berlin, Budapest, and online—people who wear our pieces to clubs, dates, protests, and everyday life. Seeing DRENKROM out in the world, styled in your own way, has been one of the most rewarding parts of building this brand. So we thought: why not finally do a giveaway?And

Why Is DRENKROM More Expensive Than Other Upcycling Brands?

At DRENKROM, we often get asked why our prices are higher than many other upcycling or sustainable fashion brands. The short answer? Because every piece we create is truly one of a kind, made with care, intention, and quality from start to finish — right here in Berlin. We Handpick Every Material Our process begins long before the sewing machine starts. We carefully source and select every second-hand garment, textile scrap, or production leftover we use. We don’t buy bulk “recycled” fabrics — we curate them. Each material is chosen for its texture, strength, and potential to transform into something new and unexpected. Everything Is Reworked in Berlin Every DRENKROM piece is reimagined and handcrafted in our Berlin studio. We

Make Hungary Gay Again – pólón túl, közösségben

Ez a kampány nem csak ruhadarabokról szól.A Make Hungary Gay Again egy üzenet – egy közös kiállás minden LMBTQI+ emberért Magyarországon. A célunk egyszerű: láthatóvá válni, támogatni, közösen felemelni a hangunkat, és megmutatni, hogy a szeretet, a szabadság és az összetartozás nem lehet politikai kérdés. A pólóink nem csupán divatcikkek.Minden egyes darab egy kiállás azok mellett, akiket gyakran elhallgattatnak. A hátukon található felirat nem félős, nem semleges – mert mi sem vagyunk azok. És mert nem lehet tovább csendben maradni. Minden eladott póló nettó bevételének 50%-át a Háttér Társaság kapja, akik 1995 óta dolgoznak az LMBTQI+ emberek jogaiért Magyarországon. Ők biztosítanak jogi segítséget, mentális támogatást, közösségi teret – és most a ti támogatásotokkal még többet tudnak tenni. De ez a

Berlin Fashion Week

As the designer behind Drenkrom, participating in Berlin Fashion Week was not just an opportunity to showcase a signature look, but a momentous occasion to redefine the very essence of luxury in fashion. The Vorn Academy Showcase centered around the themes of circularity and luxury, provided the perfect platform for us to unveil our vision to the world. At the heart of our showcase was an angelic ensemble unlike any other—a creation that not only embodies sexiness and desire but also carried a powerful message of sustainability and innovation. Crafted from a unique blend of materials including latex production waste, hardware, coat hangers, and deadstock tulle, this angel look represented a bold departure from traditional haute couture. For us at
