Phoebe Patricia Faircloth Dahl (born 4 November 1988) is a British-American fashion designer and philanthropist, granddaughter of Welsh author Roald Dahl and American actress Patricia Neal. Dahl is the founder of the charitable fashion line Faircloth & Supply (2013).
Dahl was born in Florida, US, to screenwriter Lucy Dahl and water-ski instructor Michael Faircloth. As a young child, she was raised in Martha's Vineyard before finally settling in Los Angeles when she was seven. As a teenager, Dahl attended San Francisco’s Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and graduated with an Associates of Arts degree in fashion design in 2010. In 2012, Dahl studied fashion photography at London College of Fashion.
Dahl began her career in Amsterdam working as an assistant to Dutch fashion designer Jackie Villevoye before returning to Los Angeles in 2013.
Dahl founded Faircloth & Supply in late 2012 after a trip to Japan and India, but it was not until she returned to Los Angeles in 2013 that she launched it. In 2014, she collaborated with the Australian model and television presenter Ruby Rose to design street-wear for Dahl's ethical clothing range Faircloth & Supply.
In 2015, Dahl created T-shirt designs Verve Coffee Roasters. She was awarded "Racked’s 30 Under 30 Rising Designers".
In 2016, Dahl was named the Creative Director at the incubator for emerging brands a.Kartel, and launched the company Cardinahl + Dahl as a collaboration with Ruby Cardinahl.
Dahl started her fashion brand working with the nonprofit organization General Welfare Pratisthan. For each item sold, the organization donates two school uniforms, school supplies and a one-year scholarship to a girl in Nepal. Issues of concern to her include the LGBT community, women empowerment, women's health care.
In 2014, Dahl became engaged to Australian actress Ruby Rose; they split up and called off their engagement in December 2015. In 2017, Dahl began dating the DJ and former model Tat de Leon.
