College fest WOW..That wow factor makes us more

enthusiastic to prove our self. We got an

opportunity to leave the footprints in the

Foot-Steps 2012, We launched our first

collection, The Banjara Collection. The

journey of 1st semester proved much more

interesting due to this event, where we

worked round the clock to give look to our

collection and give shape to our works.

Throughout the preparations we were

moulded in such a way that we shouldnever have to commit all such mistakes

again. I admit we were not perfect, nor

collection was highly professional but at

last we were happy because we at least tried

and yes it was good enough for audience

and so for us.....The pure heart and pure minds of the

department made the people happy. That

was the first step towards success.. and so

we did it this is what we were.

Womens day celebration

Apart from being students of

fashion design, we people are much

liberally interested in making others apart of our happiness, our celebration. So

we find it as our duty and utmost

responsibility to give respect to the

women. So in this context, the

department organised a wonderfulactivities event, for the whole college

where we made them play, laugh, sing,

run and enjoy as much as was possible. It

was just the small contribution to add a

little fun filled awareness around.

We together enjoyed the balloon

bursting, antakshri and many other

things, at last as a token of love from our

side we presented a Brochures to all the

female faculties and senior faculties,

which was made by the student of FD

only. We always want to make things

possible by doing our bit and will

continue in the same way..

FASHION SHOW-FASHIONOVA

We think and we plan, we plan and we work and

then a time comes when we put everything in our best

action to achieve the set target or goal.

As the time passes, we are trained with something

more in fashion and by the Gods grace an opportunity

came when we met the Head-Designer of RAYMONDS and

his team. It felt as if a new born bird already been god

gifted how to fly, as soon you open your eyes. Again it

proved to be challenging to prove our self the best

amongst the rest. The students really worked hard andchosen laborious techniques and works to make their

collection best and to make their team won. In that

project,

Some group tried to show the influence of chatting and

social networking sites.

Some tried their level best and made best possible

inspiration from birds, i.e.; Brotherhood.

While, some went into deep detailing of insects and flies

and created such an excellent structured designs and

At some place students tried to connect the public to the

Astro-numerology..

Even for the first time here we dealt with smarttextiles that are wearable electronics.

The work was much appreciated by the Raymonds

people and other guest. It was a real reward for us and

this inspired our dream more.
