PHOAF (F-OH-F) is a creative studio making limited-run, ready-to-wear accessories and bespoke fashion pieces for editorial, runway, and artists. Here we celebrate the dream of standing out versus the need to fit in.

Studio founder, Sophie Dalglish, was nicknamed "PHOAF" by her late parents. The name is a touching reminder of the importance of belonging and becoming. Our work is dedicated to becoming.

We have two studio streams. Our statement and ready-to-wear accessories reimagine everyday wear, nudging boundaries so you don’t have to. Our bespoke, wearable art pieces are boundless, wholly devoted to the construction of fantasy.  

Gratitude is never lost on us. We’re humbled by the impact of what we do, how a piece shaped by our hands finds its way into someone’s daily life, and how collaboration can lead to work so otherworldly that our pieces take on a life of their own, leaving us awed and moved to tears.

We are part of a new generation of makers, gracefully averse to the status quo. Our pieces are designed to take your breath away. The type of pieces you reach for when nothing else truly celebrates the courage it takes to become who you are against a prevailing wind.

Sophie Dalglish / FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Our work began with two desires.

a headpiece that was more than a flower crown, and a bag that could hold — and speak — volumes. 

What we couldn’t find, we built.

Two studio streams in bespoke fashion pieces and statement accessories, with one unifying theme, individuality.

bespoke

The commissioned and collaborative playground of the studio, where everything is possible.

Here we work with brands, editors, stylists, designers, and artists of all types, anyone who has something to say and wants to say it with emphasis. 

These are unique pieces made confidently to briefs of fancy or strategy.

STATEMENT ACCESSORIES

Our limited-run, statement accessory collections are the way we share our work with the like-minded. 

Small batch making is not an exercise in exclusivity, it’s a statement of responsibility. The same uncompromising spirit to buck the status quo applies, but never at the expense of others.

We vow to keep small yet tall, being as responsible and honest in material, ways of working, and production as we can.
