Fah Chak WO+MAN was created in 2016 by Fah Chakshuvej. Born and raised in Bangkok, Fah was interested in art and culture from a very young age, an influence from her artistic mother who does fine arts and furniture design. At 15, Fah decided to go study in the UK where she has discovered she wanted to do fashion. Since then she spent over 10 years studying, traveling, collecting and working in Europe.

 

Our creative director, Fah received a First Class Degree Honour for her Bachelor degree in Fashion from Ravensbourne College of Design and Communication (London), Fah continued with her Masters’ degree at The Royal College of Art. She graduated in 2011 with a specialty in menswear design. This plays a big part on how she approaches garment making. Fah strongly believes in the importance of how clothes are created and does her own pattern cutting. She enjoys experimenting with how 2D can lead to 3D forms while providing practicality and comfort.
