Ibu
We are a global movement providing the means and the marketplace for women to rise, through the art of their hands, into financial self-sufficiency.
When you shop or donate to Ibu, you support women in real and life-changing ways. Three objectives form the foundation of Ibu: To provide sumptuous, luxury garments to the western woman which carry a story, a sense of purpose and meaning, and a strong, bold aesthetic; to reinvigorate the practice of hand-made cloth in cultures where it is disappearing; to support women’s financial independence in

Tune in TODAY @ noon EST for our next episode of Magic of Their Hands: Kenya Series 🇰🇪
We are celebrating women artisan leaders whose heritage craftsmanship doesn’t just preserve culture, it propels it forward.
Across the world, women are shaping the future of design through mastery passed down like treasure, transforming ancient techniques into work that feels timeless, modern, and deeply alive.
We journey to Kenya to spotlight Salma Lekoomet, product developer of ✨A remarkable collective of talented women artisans specializing in handcrafted beadwork and leather products. Formed to create sustainable income and promote traditional craftsmanship, this group has grown into a powerhouse of skill and production capacity for both local and international markets.
Together, we explore how heritage craft moves from the hands of artisans to the global stage, sharing history through every single stitch and bead.
An accessory can change the whole tone of an outfit. Handmade with love to spread JOY.

Step inside the mind of a very vital woman behind every Ibu collection.
Deniz Roth, our lead designer, doesn’t begin at a sketchpad. She begins with a color that lingers, a fragment of embroidery, a technique centuries in the making. From there: deep research, artisan collaboration across the globe, and months of slow, intentional work happens until something worth holding finally exists.
This is the series where she takes you inside all of it. Design, the way it was always meant to be done.
