About PHACOSTE

Phacoste is a sustainable fashion brand founded by Phoebe Lacoste, a third-year fashion design student. Phacoste combines creativity and sustainability to create unique, one-off upcycled pieces.

The brand draws inspiration from nightlife scenes, movement, atmosphere, and music, capturing the energy of the underground culture.

Her designs blend innovation with eco-conscious practices, offering a fresh approach to fashion that is both stylish and sustainable. Each garment is carefully crafted with a focus on individual expression, bringing new life to pre-loved materials and reflecting the brand’s commitment to sustainable fashion futures.

Meet the designer

Phacoste’s journey began with Phoebe’s love for music and the vibrant energy of nightlife. From a young age, Phoebe was drawn to the creative aspects of art and design, and her path into fashion design was driven by fashion as a form of wearable art.

The brand’s approach to design is inspired by the garment itself, allowing each piece to guide its unique transformation. Phacoste is a fusion of creativity, sustainability, and alternative music culture.

Archive 2025

A fusion of archived garments developed throughout Phoebe’s design degree and new pieces created exclusively for the MODA Designer Runway, Archive 2025 explores movement through layering, textures, and silhouette. Each look was crafted using up-cycled and sustainably sourced materials, giving new life to existing fabrics while reducing waste. Balancing past work with newly developed designs, the collection becomes an ongoing dialogue between experimentation, craftsmanship, and conscious fashion practice.
