Preamble
Fashion And Apparel Design
The Indian fashion industry needs designers with in-depth knowledge and abilities in design innovation and technology as a result of the integration of domestic and export markets. Additionally, there is local and external demand on Indian designers to produce unique contributions. Future designers have problems in showcasing their individual design philosophies and fostering innovation and creativity. By doing so, the sector will be able to meet international standards and apply its design expertise to a variety of fields. The primary goal of this course is to teach students how to enhance their creativity and how to be able to capture it on paper in the form of sketches and technical drawings. Depending on their career objectives, students may choose to specialise in any area of design. The course also attempts to introduce students to new technologies that are being developed in the design industry. One might pursue a career working with design studios, multinational corporations, prestigious fashion companies, emerging and established designers, fashion journals, film producers, and more after having a significant amount of expertise in fashion design.
