Co-founder and designer, Renè
Kridpat Charoenchaipiyakul
Kridpat Charoenchaipiyakul co-founded RENÈ in Copenhagen in 2022 with his husband, Jens Skov Østergaard. The genderless label builds its collections from deadstock fabrics from Japan, Italy and Denmark. It presents at Copenhagen Fashion Week, and its debut runway show for spring/summer 2027 drew on seafaring culture, with sail-like fabrics, drawstrings and buttons.
