Renata Brenha, a Brazilian designer based in London, founded her eponymous womenswear label in 2019 after graduating from Central Saint Martins and the Royal College of Art. The brand is a vehicle for exploring Latin American culture and identity, reframing its place in contemporary fashion through a commitment to sustainability and artisanal craftsmanship. Brenha’s design process is rooted in the Brazilian concept of “Gambiarra,” an improvisational approach that involves creating new objects from existing materials. This philosophy drives the brand’s use of upcycled and repurposed items, transforming materials like vintage tablecloths, deadstock denim, and old soccer jerseys into thoughtfully constructed garments.
