Celebrity designer Ashley Rebello reveals how he used colour and fabric to shape the emotional journey of Haq’s characters. Yami Gautam’s palette shifts subtly through marriage, divorce, and age; Vartika Singh shines in bright, culturally rooted bridal tones

Celebrity costume designer Ashley Rebello opens up about crafting the emotional and visual language of Haq through colour — especially for its leading ladies, Yami Gautam and Vartika Singh, and the grey-toned world of Emraan Hashmi.
From the start, the director had absolute clarity. “He was very specific… I wanted two different sets of colours — one palette is pre-divorce, and one palette is post-divorce,” Ashley recalls. But he also pushed back on the idea of sudden transformation. “Just because you're divorced, you don't change your wardrobe suddenly… You have that many clothes, you don’t anticipate what’s coming.”
