NERAKCOS · ABOUT
WHO I AM
Hi, I'm Karen — a Colombian designer who lived in Spain for over 20 years before moving to the Netherlands in 2023.
I trained as a pattern-making and fashion technician in Madrid, where I became deeply aware of the devastating impact the textile industry has on our planet.
From that moment, I chose a different path — giving life to my own sustainable and artisanal fashion project, crafted entirely from my atelier here in Enschede.
Our Philosophy
Radical Reuse
We source exclusively from denim archives, giving forgotten fabric a bold new life — significantly reducing your wardrobe's carbon footprint.
Atelier Craftsmanship
Every stitch is intentional. Each object is hand-finished in our Enschede studio, celebrating the raw, imperfect beauty that only human hands create.
Durable Utility
Upcycled doesn't mean fragile. We construct objects to withstand the pace of modern life — circular fashion that is built to last.
Slow Fashion
We release collections slowly and intentionally — because mass production is never the answer. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind statement.
Our Mission
"Authenticity is found in the imperfect."
Based in our Enschede atelier, NERAKCOS is built on the belief that authenticity is found in the imperfect. Our mission is to foster a new generation of upcycling, where slow, intentional craftsmanship replaces mass production. Every design object we release is a one-of-a-kind statement — individually hand-finished to ensure that your style is as unique as the circular journey of the fabric itself.

"Each piece tells a story. Make it yours."
