Utility and artistry are the cornerstone of our craftsmanship.

OUR CREATIVE DIRECTOR SAID

“There are people who love functional, well-made clothes designed with care. But not everyone wants to pay outlandish prices for them. That’s why we created Just Jackets.”

Tessy Oliseh-Amaize, Creative Director, TESSLO

“I’ve always believed that the title of ‘creative director’ or ‘fashion designer’ should mean more than just having a flair for style. I want people who wear our clothes to feel connected to the craftsmanship behind them.”

Tessy Oliseh-Amaize, Creative Director, TESSLO

“Expensive accessories cannot save a poorly made outfit.”

Tessy Oliseh-Amaize, Creative Director, TESSLO

“We don’t describe our work as ‘luxury’ not because it doesn’t meet the mark but because that word is losing its true meaning. It’s been diluted, over-commodified, and thrown around too casually.”

Tessy Oliseh-Amaize, Creative Director, TESSLO
