About
I'm Jahnvi Deshlahra, a fashion design student at the University of Central Lancashire with a background in personal styling and image consultancy from Pearl Academy, Bangalore. My creative journey began with a handmade décor and gifts business, where I developed a passion for storytelling through craftsmanship. Since then, I’ve worked as a freelance stylist and shopper, collaborating with clients globally and assisting on editorial shoots.
My design approach blends traditional Indian art and textiles with contemporary silhouettes, often drawing inspiration from Rajasthani architecture, blue pottery, and Pichwai painting. I'm especially interested in sustainable fashion, tactile textiles, and translating cultural heritage into modern design narratives.
Currently, I’m looking for internships and opportunities to grow as a designer, contribute fresh ideas, and learn from experienced industry professionals.
Through the Years is a graduate collection inspired by the rich heritage of Rajasthan, blending traditional Indian craftsmanship with contemporary silhouettes. Drawing from elements like blue pottery, jharokhas, lotus motifs, and Pichwai art, the collection reimagines cultural nostalgia through a modern lens. Natural fabrics, handcrafted details that celebrate timeless beauty and artisanal legacy.
