Question

Puneet Singh · Answer

Dear Nomanjee, LPU, IIFT AIFD, and INIFD are very good institutes but if I talk about fashion design courses, then I must recommend LPU for the fashion designing programme. My elder sister has done her B. Design Fashion from Lovely Professional University and today she is successfully running her own Brand, she was also part of internship projects with leading Fashion stylists. Also, her designs are appreciated not just in India but even abroad. She always keeps on appraising LPU for different platforms provided by them. I will be sharing a few major highlights of the Fashion Design course based upon her experience. The School of Fashion Designing of Lovely Professional University is doing extraordinary works in the field of Designing. They are conducting Fashion Shows regularly for the students. It gives a great chance to the students to show their talent in front of a big audience. Prominent designers are also taking part in the events. So, surely it is a big opportunity university is providing to the students in LPU. The infrastructure for the practical works is very excellent in the university. Students can enjoy the course curriculum which has given more importance to practical knowledge. Scholarships have one other significance. Students can avail scholarships based on their score in the qualifying exam or according to their performance in the University test. Anyhow you can enjoy the campus and course here and can excel in the field once you are completing the course. Experimental Design And Production Students are encouraged to experiment with different materials to create conceptual wear and accessories. Educational Trips And Industrial Exposure Students are exposed to fashion shows, craft fairs, industry internships and craft documentation. Skill Oriented And Application Based Teaching Intensive exposure to practical work in Patternmaking, Draping, Weaving, Printing, Dyeing, Garment Construction labs. Live Projects Students are given various Live-projects during the course of the programme to create commercially viable designs. I hope this helps you in making a wise decision. All the Best!

Hi Dear, Although, IIFT has no comparison with any other Institution, following by AIFD and INIFD. All above mentioned are the best names across the country. But what if someone could not be able to reach there plan B should be in hands. Thus, in Private Universities and after IIFT AIFD and INIFD, LPU is equally good. Why am I telling this to you, because I know LPU closely. It is situated hardly 12 kms from Jalandhar where I stay. I generally get to read in the Newspapers for the achievements and accolades of School of Fashion Design, LPU. Online admissions are in process at LPU, which means their academic Executives will be taking calls to guide the candidates. You can try calling them or visit their website to know the updated fee structure also. I heard they have relaxed their eligibility criteria for various programmes aiming to facilitate the candidates against COVID19 pandemic.
