This work is devoted to the Coulomb excitation of 165Ho. Experiments were performed at the Heavy Ion Laboratory of Warsaw University. A model-independent analysis using the GOSIA code yielded a set of reduced matrix elements values coupling the low-lying collective excited states. A  quadrupole sum rules approach was used to determine the deformation of the states. A remarkable change of quadrupole moment in one of the \gamma -vibrational bands was found.
