Creating Tukki Blu is about honoring where I come from while designing for the woman I am — and the women who move through the world with intention.
Esha Jobe is the founder and creative director behind Tukki Blu. Born in The Gambia and raised in the United States, she developed a deep appreciation for heritage and culture.
Tukki Blu began long before it had a name. A global traveler with an eye for detail, she was drawn to distinctive fabrics from around the world — transforming them into modern, timeless kaftans.
Her inspiration was personal. As a tall woman, she struggled to find the right fit, so she designed her own — pieces that move with ease and embody quiet sophistication.
As she traveled, her designs drew attention — revealing a shared desire for something refined, unique, and intentional.
In that moment, Tukki Blu was born.
