Puneet Singh · Answer

Dear Prachi Dixit, Amity University, LPU, INIFD, and Army Institute are good institutes but being alumni of LPU I would be sharing the details of the fashion design programme at LPU. I have many friends from the same department. 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!
