Creative Director

As Creative Director, you own how Suspicious Antwerp shows up in the world. You turn our CEO's vision into a clear creative direction and carry it through everything we put out: the concepts, the visuals, the feed, the campaigns. You decide what we say, how we look, and how it feels, and you keep that one recognizable aesthetic consistent wherever people meet the brand. That could be an event with a partner, the way our stores and showroom are dressed, or the content we drop that day. Social is where it all comes together, because that's where everything happens for us, so that's where you push hardest.

You know our market. You read what's happening in fashion and streetwear, you feel who's doing what and where it's heading, and you turn that into work that keeps us ahead of it. You have a real eye for aesthetics and you know fashion, you don't just follow the culture, you set the tone.

This is a hands-on leadership role, not a sit-back-and-delegate one. You set the creative bar and lead the team that hits it, but on the days that matter you're in it yourself: shaping concepts, shooting, editing, writing. You think in strategy and you build with your hands, and you're the link between where the brand wants to go and what people actually see.
