Gaby Basora was always inspired by the response she got when she wore things that she made for herself. In early 2006 she made the first Tucker shirt for herself. And then she made another fifty to see it in different fabrics. And was completely smitten. She wore a different blouse every day. Her friends wanted one - or two or three - and their friends started to come by her place to buy them. And that’s how Tucker began.

The first Tucker was and is a very simple blouse with interesting details, beautiful fabric and an untraditionally seductive fit. From that piece the first dress was born. Each piece adapts to the unique body type and personality of the woman wearing it. In short the woman wears Tucker rather than Tucker wearing the woman. Each fabric or print has a short title that reflects the story behind its design or captures a fleeting moment of inspiration: Fox Named Adele, Girl Named Niels, Lucille’s Monte Carlo, Susan Studies Swedish. And so on.
