Maryland-born and Brooklyn-based, Jachuku Omotayo is a multidisciplinary designer working across fashion, product, and creative direction. His design language draws from the past and present, combining influences from ’90s haute couture, Afrofuturism, geometry, anime, and everyday life to imagine new possibilities through clothing.

His practice is rooted in transforming familiar silhouettes through dynamic construction, unconventional materials, texture, and technology. Whether developing experimental garments or commercial products, Jachuku approaches design as a vehicle for storytelling, cultural exploration, and connection.

Jachuku studied pattern making, garment construction, and fashion illustration at Marymount University and Lorenzo de’ Medici in Florence, Italy. His journey has since moved across fashion, art, modeling, and product development—from appearing in Beyoncé’s Black Is King to founding Bandit Studioz and developing work through collaborations, exhibitions, and independent collections.

Today, his work exists across three connected expressions of the same creative practice: Apparel Design focuses on professional design, development, and industry execution; Bandit Studioz explores commercial product, collaboration, and culture; and Jachuku Omotayo represents his conceptual and authorship-led practice, where material, identity, and experimentation take center stage.

Together, each reflects a different application of the same approach: designing with intention, curiosity, and a distinct point of view.
