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
Tavaszi szél
Spring/Summer 2023 Tavaszi szél vizet áraszt (Spring wind floods water) is a hungarian folk song, that once was preformed by Queen in 1986 Budapest, back when Hungary was still a socialist country. I was just one year old , but when I saw the footage later I had goosebumps seeing how happy the people were, when they heard this song form Freddy Mercury himself. It felt like he was with us and nothing bad can happen. Just when eastern people were excited for a new spring to come! “Spring wind floods water, every bird to choose a partner. Well, who should I choose, my darling, my flower? You choose me, I choose you, my darling, my flower!” The embroidered flower
AW 2022 Poetry Collection
For this year’s autum-winter collection I aspired to build structures and paint motives inspired by poetry and club culture. The poems from Attila Jozsef have always been close to my heart growing up in Budapest and now as the train passes by a factory or an old train station in East-Berlin, I see the poems coming to life as a heavy, industrial and erotic vision of the past and present resurrecting in clothes. I mostly used leftöver latex, silk, denim, hardware and second hand clothes to create the pieces, that were all inspired by A.J. poems.
