the Making of Ghand
ما مصمم هستم تا
با پشتیبانی از زنان هنرمند در تولید لباسهای سنتی افغانی و ارجگذاری به مهارتها و میراث فرهنگیشان، زمینههای پایداری را برای بیوهزنان فراهم میسازیم، همزمان، دختران یتیم را تحت حمایت خود قرار داده، هنر خیاطی را به آنان میآموزیم تا بتوانند آیندهای مستقل، باعزت و روشن برای خود رقم بزنند، صد درصد عواید ما مستقیماً در راه حمایت از همین زنان و دختران مصرف میگردد، این تنها مد و پوشاک نیست — این راهیست برای نجات، توانمندسازی و بخشیدنِ امید دوباره به زنان افغان
موږ د هیلو تار یو
موږ یو هدفمند او ژمن حرکت یو، چې د افغانو کونډو مېرمنو او یتیمو نجونو د ځواکمنولو لپاره کار کوي ، د افغاني دودیزو جامو د تولید له لارې، موږ نه یوازې د دوی مهارتونو او فرهنګي میراث ته درناوی کوو، بلکې د کونډو ښځو لپاره د دوامداره عاید فرصتونه هم برابروو، په عین وخت کې، یتیمې نجونې تر خپلې پالنې لاندې راولو او د خیاطۍ هنر ور زده کوو، ترڅو وکولای شي د ځان لپاره یو خپلواک، باعزته او روڼ راتلونکی جوړ کړي ، زموږ سل سلنه عواید مستقیم د دغو مېرمنو او نجونو د ملاتړ لپاره لګیږي ، دا یوازې فېشن نه دی — دا د افغانو ښځو د ژغورنې، تمې او باوقاره ژوند یوه هیله بښونکې لار ده.
Honoring Tradition, Embracing Innovation
Handmade & Machine-Made Ghand Dresses
At Ghand Collection, our dresses are crafted through a harmonious blend of hand-stitching by skilled Afghan artisans and modern tailoring techniques. Each handmade dress is a labor of love, often taking up to one month to complete, particularly in regions like Ghazni, where artisans dedicate their time and expertise to perfect every detail. These handcrafted pieces showcase the intricate artistry and timeless elegance of Afghan craftsmanship. For higher demand, we offer machine-produced options that maintain the same traditional elegance, ensuring that our designs remain accessible without compromising on quality. Whether hand-stitched or machine-made, every dress embodies the spirit of craftsmanship and cultural heritage that defines Ghand Collection.
A Celebration of Afghan Creativity
The Arts Behind Our Dresses
At Ghand Collection, we proudly incorporate traditional Afghan techniques such as Khunjar embroidery, pakhta work, mirror work, and coin detailing into each piece. These intricate skills have been passed down through generations, with each stitch holding deep cultural significance. Khunjar embroidery symbolizes strength and resilience, while pakhta work adds rich texture to our designs. Mirror work reflects the vibrancy of Afghan art, and coin detailing honors the nation’s heritage and prosperity. Every thread tells a story of Afghan pride, celebrating the craftsmanship and dedication of artisans who continue to preserve these timeless traditions. With each dress, we not only showcase beauty but also honor the cultural legacy that defines Afghanistan’s artistry and spirit.
Every Dress Tells a Story
From Concept to Creation
Our design process begins with the careful sourcing of fabrics, ensuring that each material aligns with the vision of the collection. We seek inspiration from a rich tapestry of global cultures, drawing from their timeless traditions, art, and storytelling to create designs that are not only beautiful but meaningful. Our team of talented designers begins with hand-drawn sketches, transforming abstract ideas into tangible concepts. We then move to the meticulous art of embroidery, where skilled artisans embellish each design with intricate details that add texture and depth. Tailoring follows, as each piece is carefully crafted to achieve the perfect fit and silhouette. Before the final product is ready, every dress undergoes a rigorous quality control process to ensure that it meets the highest standards of craftsmanship. The result is a collection of dresses made with purpose, blending cultural inspiration, expert craftsmanship, and thoughtful design into every piece.
