Wave Gotik Treffen 2023
Scheduled for 2023.
Participation in the event co-financed under the project titled: "Strengthening the position of the regional economy of West Pomerania - The course for innovation"; implemented under the Regional Operational Program for the West Pomeranian Voivodeship 2014-2022.
MIPTV 2023
Our trip to Cannes was the last one we took under Go To Brand program funding in 2023. We felt that it was of great importance for us. So far, we had not had the opportunity to present ourselves at the film industry trade fairs, so we were very excited to have such a chance. Our expectations were fully met!
The event turned out to be a great success. We met many film and music producers, directors, and other entertainment industry professionals. The number of netforking events during MIPTV was invaluable. The most important thing from the whole event was we made a lot of new friends!
What effect will our participation in the fair bring? We do not know yet, but we are hopeful that we will establish many valuable collaborations. However, we do know for sure that we will return to the next edition of MIP in Cannes. We cannot wait!
Our participation in this event is possible thanks to co-financing from the European Regional Development Fund, obtained through the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development.
Wasteland Weekend 2022
Attending Wasteland Weekend has always been one of our dreams. The event turned out to be even more amazing than we'd have imagined. The community greeted us with extraordinary hospitality and lots of support. We were surprised by the number of people who recognized our brand, attendees who told us about their Polish heritage, or online customers who'd come around to our booth to meet us in person and take a picture together. We made lots of new connections and our friend and neighbour, Karol Bartoszyński, introduced us to more fantastic, talented artists. We'll always treasure the memories of our stay at the Mojave desert and we hope to come back one day!

Pol`and`Rock Festival 2022
Nothing makes us as proud and happy as our annual participation in Pol'and'Rock. At this beautiful event, full of people who radiate good energy, we really feel at home. During this edition, we also had the opportunity to enter into cooperation with Western Pomerania, where we organized workshops on creating festival flags and patches. Our boutique was visited not only by regular and new customers, but also by the Marshal of the Westpomeranian Region, Olgierd Geblewicz and his associates, and Jurek Owsiak, to whom we presented a jacket made especially for the Festival. Later, Jurek personally gave it to the vocalist of the band Wolf Alice, sending our love and commitment to the world along with the jacket.
Harley Days Hamburg 2022
Participation in Harley Days - the largest European rally of these impressive motorcycles - was an opportunity for us to see how our assortment will appeal to people at an event of a completely different type than the ones we usually go to. Outside of work, we admired the machines all around us, we saw a spectacular fireshow performance, we also managed to establish an acquaintance with a German company that produces clothes in a similar, worn-out aesthetics.

Pyrkon 2022
Pyrkon is one of our beloved events in Poland. Being there for the fourth time, we met many regular customers who knew us from previous editions - but also a lot of new, interesting people. We proudly welcomed everyone to our boutique - which in our opinion, thanks to a well planned setup with a mannequin in the center, looked the best in our history. Natalia from our crew conducted handicraft workshops, where participants could make their own bags and bandanas in a post-apocalyptic style - and as usual, there were more people interested than places available.
Colours Of Ostrava 2022
Colors is a truly unique event, most importantly thanks to its amazing location. During the festival, the historical area of the Dolne Vítkovice steelworks is filled with a over a dozen scenes with a variety of music, great food, excellent Czech beer and, of course, thousands of beautifully styled attendees. The industrial space provided the perfect backdrop for our post-apocalyptic and alternative projects, and looked truly amazing from the lookout tower. Our mobile boutique was very popular, and we also managed to meet some very interesting exhibitors.

Pyrkonowy Targ Zimowy 2021
Pyrkonowy Targ Zimowy - the Pyrkon Winter Market - was a great opportunity for Christmas shopping. In our mobile boutique, during this event, the top sellers were harnesses and gift boxes with chokers, bracelets and hip flasks. We also organized crafting workshops with the use of upcycling materials that also gathered a lot of participants.
FACTS 2021
The FACTS Convention, i.e. the Belgian Comic Con in Ghent, was the second trip in which we participated thanks to funds from the Go To Brand grant. A noteworthy thing about the event was its perfect organization - both the remote communication during the preparations for our arrival and the cooperation with the Organizers on site was exceptionally quick and nice. On our way to the event, we were not sure what to expect there, but it turned out that the attendance was good, the atmosphere was very kind, and our stand attracted the attention of many visitors.

MOMAD Madrid 2021
In September 2021 we took part in the first one of the series of events that we're attending to internationally promote the Wasted Couture brand, thanks to the Go To Brand grant from a PARP project. For the first time we participated in this sort of international fashion fair! The event turned out to be slightly different than we expected, but we still managed to find lots of inspiration there, and to meet a few amazing persons. The most interesting part was certainly the Sustainable Experience alley where our stand was also placed - there, fashion brands who create in an ethical and eco-friendly way presented their products.

Pyrkonowy Targ Letni 2021
Because of the pandemic restrictions, one of our most beloved festivals, Pyrkon, couldn't be held in 2021. However, a Pyrkon Summer Market has been organized - a much smaller event, but with just as nice atmosphere. We took part in it with our mobile boutique, we also ran free handicraft workshops. The attendees could use our materials to create alternative upcycled accessories and jewelry. The workshops were a great success, and the outcome of the creative work of the people who took part in them turned out to be really impressive!
Pol`and`Rock Festival 2021
Whether Pol'and'Rock Festival 2021 would come true was under question for a long time, and the decition to open the Exhibitors' Alley was only published a few weeks before the event. However, as soon as we got the information that we can participate with the Wasted Couture mobile boutique again, we sent our application. Despite the festival being organized on some slightly different terms and for a smaller number of attendees, it was just as beautiful, full of kindness and positive vibes, as the editions before. We are happy that we had the chance to meet so many fantastic people who visited our stand, and to give gifts to many amazing musicians. And again, we're happy to have shared our exbitors' tent with Pig On The Table who are great to cooperate with!
OldTown 2021
OldTown 2021 was probably the most awaited event in the entire Wasted Couture history! A few months before the festival, Viola became the leader of the OldTown Crafting Team that takes care of designing and producing the decorations. Thanks to a series of weekend workshops she'd organized in the preceding weeks, and the intense work of her staff at the festival grounds, this OldTown was unanimously titled as the prettiest one ever! The sixteenth edition was filled with positivity, and meeting with the friends we've missed for two years really gave us a lot of good energy for the entire event season!
Warsaw Tattoo Days 2020
In 2020, the year where almost all planned events were cancelled by the coronavirus, Warsaw Tattoo Days was the last and the only that we attended before the pandemic struck. Of course, we came back with more tattoos, and with positive emotions that helped us withstand the long months that came after, without any festivals and fairs.
Spiel Essen 2019
Spiel is the biggest fair of games withour electricity in Europe. Its scale made a huge impact on us, just like the multitude of the games that premiered and could be played there.
Szczecin Tattoo Convention 2019
During STC 2019 we decided to enrich our stand with a unique show - making a harness directly on a model's body. Leather elements that we'd prepared before the event were all connected together at the festival grounds. The outcome was a unique, perfectly fitted full body decoration, finished with a metallic gold paint. Naturally, we wouldn't be ourselves if we didn't get some tattoos as mementos from this event!
Pol`and`Rock Festival 2019
We've always dreamt of attending Pol'and'Rock Festival with Wasted Couture's stand. In 2019 we made it happen for the first time. Working in our boutique at the most beautiful festival of the world was pure joy. We met many amazing people and filled up with the amazing atmosphere of this event. We shared our space with our friend Kuba, owner of the brand Pig On The Table, who creates vegan skull jewelry. The special attraction that made our participation special was a contest we organized - the author of the best greetings from P'n'R got a custom denim jacket from us!
Weekend In OldTown 2019
During the first edition of Weekend In OldTown - a more open side event of our beloved festival - we were also selling Wasted Couture's and OTShop's products. Moreover, we organized an alternative fashion show, where the attendees had the chance to admire our handmade costumes and accessories.
OldTown 2019
Our stand during this edition of OldTown was placed in a huge tent. Besides the Wasted Couture products we were also distributing the items from OTShop with the festival gadgets. We also led two days of crafting workshops which let dozens of Attendees create their last-minute LARP costumes.
Piknik Nad Odrą 2019
The name of the event could be translated to the Picnic by the river Odra. Every year it gathers thousands of visitors from the region. Many citizens of Szczecin were surprised when finding out that an unusual shop like Wasted Couture who sells handmade upcycled fashion operates in their city. Among the many fairs, this one is definitely special thanks to the atmosphere of the boulevard by the shore of Odra.
Pyrkon 2019
Pyrkon 2019 was one of the most succesful festivals we ever had the chance to participate in as Wasted Couture. We made a huge and impressive mobile boutique with a red carpet and scenic lightning. We led a lecture about the post-apocalyptic fashion combined with a crafting workshop where the Pyrkon attendees created their own post-apocalyptic t-shirts. We will think about this outstanding event for the years to come!
Warsaw Motorcycle Show 2019
Motorcycle Show is not just an event where you can admire some outstaning vehicles, but also the works of talented tattoo artists - we came back with new tattoos by Sonia Black Tattoo. And the most stunning part of the event was definitely the show of driving a motorbike inside a huge metal sphere.
Warsaw Comic Con Fall 2018
During the Fall edition of Comic Con in Warsaw, the Diamond International Cosplay Awards contest was held, and gathered many talented cosplayers. Their performances were a great source of inspiration for us. We also admired the promotional stall of the movie Mortal Engines, where the crew worked in stylish, post-apocalyptic costumes.
Warsaw Tattoo Convention 2018
After the tattoo convention in Szczecin we decided to participate in another one - this time in Warsaw. As exhibitors, we donated a leather harness for a charity organization. It was a really inspiring experience to admire the best tattoo artists from Poland and abroad at work!
Szczecin Tattoo Convention 2018
During the 2018 tattoo convention in Szczecin the visitors could observe the process of creating a unique leather vest with hand-painted ornaments on our stand. It was an especially great chance to meet the local alternative community, especially with all of us in Wasted Couture being tattoo lovers!
OldTown 2018
Our stand during this edition od OldTown was located in a stylish container which served as a part of the event's scenography. We also ran the festival store, OTShop, where the attendees could buy gadgets and clothing with its logo. At the beginning of the festival there was also a costume contest we organized and sponsored the prize for the winner.
Pyrkon 2018
This edition of Pyrkon was the first one where we had the pleasure of sharing our stand with our metalworker friends from the forge Kuźnia Kalcifer. Never before had our boutique been as big and stunning as during this event!
Warsaw Comic Con Spring 2018
On this Comic Con we had something special on the Wasted Couture stall - an old military crank phone, that we used to call to the bar ran by OldTown and place an order. This unique trinket was not only used by us, but also by the visitors of our stand!
Silesia Bazaar 2017
Silesia Bazaar was the first fair we attended as Wasted Couture that was concentrated strictly on fashion. We met many talented creators of different types of clothing and accessories, and came back very inspired to produce new designs. We also donated our jewelry for the charity Anna Dymna Foundation.
Warsaw Comic Con Fall 2017
During this Comic Con, we ran a post-apocalyptic bar with the OldTown crew right in the center of the festival. Also, for the first time we created a stand that was fully decorated in post-apocalyptic style, catching the attention of the participants and the media.
OldTown 2017
The most important event in our calendar - OldTown. For the first time we led crafting workshops, where we showed the attendees how to make costumes, accessories and props for their camps' decoration. We shared our stand with our friend Mania from Mage Studio Dice. We also funded a custom jacket as the main prize in the costume contest!
Warsaw Comic Con Spring 2017
When we heard abou the first Polish Comic Con happening, we instantly knew we couldn't miss it! We had the pleasure of meeting the Polish actress Aleksandra Popławska, who appreciated our designs so much she chose a unique leather coat from our assortment and bought it for herself.
Cytadela 2017
The uniqueness of the Cytadela festival comes from its beautiful location - the whole event takes place in the Modlin Citadel near Warsaw. One of the most fantastic attractions was exploring it during nighttime, which really made us soak in the atmosphere of this unusual space.
Pyrkon 2017
Pyrkon is among our favourite festivals - every year the International Poznań Fair fills up with dozens of thousands of fans of all sorts of fantasy and m&a. Since we took part in it for the first time, we eagerly await every next edition and prepare for it throug the whole of spring!
Berlin Comic Con 2016
Our first event abroad was Berlin Comic Con in Germany. There we found out that there are no boundaries between the fans of post-apocalypse!
OldTown 2016
On OldTown Festival 2015 the idea to create the first professional brand that will create post-apocalyptic costumes and accessories was born. It soon got the name "Wasted Couture". Next year we attended the festival with our first stall - it was rather small and made in a typical 'oldtownish' way, but we're still proud when we think about it!
Our trip to Cannes was the last one we took under the Go To Brand program funding in 2023. We felt that it was of great importance to us. So far, we had not had the opportunity to present ourselves at the film industry trade fairs, so we were very excited to have such a chance. Our expectations were fully met!
The event turned out to be a great success. We met many film and music producers, directors, and other entertainment industry professionals. The number of networking events during MIPTV was invaluable. The most important thing from the whole event was we made a lot of new friends!
