CREW: ANKE

Nickname Ank

Age 23

Function Shop assistant

Hi there, my name is Anke. I am 23 years old, and I live in the city center of Antwerp. I’ve been working at JUTKA & RISKA since 2019. Through an Instagram post I noticed the shop was looking for students and the rest is history. This academic year I’ll be doing my Master of Arts (photography) at the Royal Academy of Antwerp.

My day at JUTKA & RISKA
A typical workday for me starts with a cup of coffee and searching for the right music to play in the store.

Favorite piece of (vintage) clothing?
My favorite items at JUTKA & RISKA are often the oversized vintage winter coats. Last year I bought one for myself. A beautiful black wool cape. A piece like that makes cold weather a lot more fashionable and dramatic.

Favorite spare time activity?
In my spare time I too often browse the internet, or secondhand stores, for fun vintage/designer clothes. Next to that I love to make music and spend a lot of time with my dog Millie.
