At INIFD Vashi, we can Learn with Manish Malhotra online, says Saloni Madia

I completed my Class 10 from Holy Family School and opted for Commerce stream in Class 11. After completing Class 12, I enrolled in BCom along with Diploma in Fashion Designing and Diploma in CAD and completed these courses simultaneously. As I was always inclined towards fashion designing, I started research for the best institutes to pursue Masters in Fashion Designing. After intensive research for colleges, I came across INIFD Vashi - International Institute of Fashion Design Vashi. I started going through the online reviews of the institute and also, interacted with the faculty. After this, I was quite sure where I want to head for my post-graduation. The faculty at INIFD Vashi provided guidance and took me through the syllabus, place, and administration. Apart from these, I also learnt about the opportunities offered by the institute in India and overseas, which helped me a lot in finalising INIFD Vashi for my masters.

When I joined the institute I was exhilarated. Now, I am at the completion of the course. At INIFD Vashi, we attend various lectures of fashion designing along with that we also spend quality time with the other students and faculty (as per their availability). Sketching is my core strength and interest, I always enjoyed attending the Illustration lecture. The institute offers various extracurricular activities as well which helps students in learning and gaining practical exposure. I have participated in New York Fashion Week wherein our group showcased garments designed by us. I also partook in IVANA Fashion Show, where I won the award for Best Accessorization in the Garment. Presently, I am trying my luck for Launchpad Show. Along with this, the institute offers various online courses like Learn from Manish Malhotra, Voice of Fashion Course, & so on. These extracurricular activities has helped me to learn & explore new things. 

All of these extracurricular activities has helped me a lot to learn new things practically.

This helped me in building my confidence and developing my personality as well which in turn will help me in the real world. 

After completing this course, I have keen interest in pursuing PhD in Fashion Designing and learning new things by practically implementing all the knowledge gained.
