I want to become a fashion designer but I don't want to do arts. I want to do commerce. I am very confused. What do to?

Dear Gurnoor, I have a perfect solution for you ! You can join B. Design in fashion at LPU and take commerce subjects in open minors! YES combination ! LPU is the only university which offers the open minors just like the IVY league universities of USA. Both your wishes will come true and it will also become a great combination of your skillsets! Commerce subject along with technical skills of fashion design will help you get great positions in fashion houses as well as having your own entrepreneurial venture. LPU has all the labs, equipment and intellectual capital to give you just the right exposure to these fields. Hope this helps DVD.

Hi B.Sc Design Fashion requires a Pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with English) or equivalent. So you can opt for the subjects you are interested in. The LPU Fashion programs are designed and delivered with an objective of wholesome development of students to encourage self-motivated learning by using creativity, exploring techniques & innovating new applications in fashion. The colleges today are trying their best to boost the career of students. In this field I have heard the accolades of LPU as it is always in news for various feats: LPU has become a brand name for fashion industry. The students are trained at leading brands like Raymond, Ginni & Jony, Hyper city Bangalore, Monte Carlo and leading export houses like Laguna, Shahi, Orient clothing Silver Spark, Raymond's Limited, Gupta Exin, Orient Clothing, Orient Craft, Foster Knit Pvt. Ltd. , C. T. A Apparels for getting a hands on experience of the industry. Our placement record has been ranging between 90 to 100% in renowned brands like Satyapaul, Michael Kors, Genesis, Armani Exchange, Mark and spencer, Coach, Raymonds, Madame, Tommy Hilfiger, Allen Solly, Bestsellers, Monte Carlo, Lilliput, Ginni &Jony, Metaphors, JCT and many more. LPU School of fashion design is institutional member of Fashion Design Council of India FDCI. Designer Anshul Rajwansh and Joy Mitra have mentored the graduation batch of 2018. Designer Shravan Kumar collaborated with the School of Fashion technology and showcased his the latest design collection at the Punjab Mega Model hunt 2103, organized in March, through the students walking the ramp as contestants of the event. On 26th April 2013, two finalists from the event, walked the ramp for his the latest collection, The Pink wedding and a team 2 faculty members and 3 students were invited and given a chance to manage the entire backstage for the same. Fashion student went to Naba and Domes institute at Italy for summer courses 2019. So fashion designing is a creative course and it needs to be pursued from an enterprising university like LPU, Pearl academy etc. Best would be to browse both websites of the mentioned colleges for a comparative analysis. Good Luck!

Hi Gurnoor, Your question is a little vague. I am assuming you're confused about your stream to be chosen for class 11th. In that case, you can opt for any course. The choice of the stream in class 10+2 is not very much relevant when you apply for a fashion design course. Your skill and aptitude matters.
