For
Denzel Veerkamp

Role
Head of Production

During Amsterdam Fashion Week 2024, Denzel Veerkamp debuted his collection Abrasei at Studio Wieman—a celebration of his Afro-Surinamese and Creole heritage. The collection fused spiritual essence with circularity, captivating an immersive and moving experience that was widely praised by the public and media.

As the Head of Production, I collaborated closely with Denzel for over four months to bring his vision to life. My role encompassed translating his ideas and aspirations into concrete productional strategies. My responsibilities included managing the budget, coordinating with the crew, models, and stakeholders, creating detailed timelines, negotiating agreements, and overseeing partnership deals. On the day of the show, I led a team of over 75 crew members, ensuring everything ran smoothly and stayed true to Denzel’s creative vision.
