About

I’m Harpreet Deol, a fashion designer passionate about transforming cultural memory into contemporary couture. My work explores the intersection of heritage, sustainability, and surface design, with a focus on upcycled textiles, hand embellishment, and experimental fabric manipulation.Each collection I create is rooted in storytelling — merging traditional South Asian craftsmanship with modern silhouettes and techniques. From draped conch-inspired forms to distressed luxury surfaces, my design approach balances artistic emotion with technical precision.Skilled in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and CLO3D, I bring ideas to life through both digital and physical processes, emphasizing craftsmanship, detail, and meaning in every stitch. My goal is to redefine modern couture by celebrating sustainability and cultural continuity in design.

This collection explores reconstruction through refined craftsmanship and sustainable material innovation. Each garment merges couture tailoring with experimental surface techniques—distressed textiles, frayed seams, raw-edge manipulation, and layered patchwork. Upcycled denim, tweed, and organza are reinterpreted into structured yet fluid silhouettes, emphasizing contrast between decay and renewal. The design direction highlights technical precision, modular construction, and texture as a design language, achieving a balance between architectural form and organic imperfection.
