Of course, leather designing is one of the major course under fashion designing. You come across so many things in your daily life, which are made of leather like footwear, jackets, carry bags and handbags, belts and a lot in clothing as well and minor things hard to imagine. All these are to be designed by a leather designer. It may sound very basic but leather designing is really tough and demands a very creative brain.

Basically, the Diploma courses are designed for the people who are currently in handloom or fashion sector. If you want to do anything, then I would suggest you to join Masters in Fashion Management or Technology. The average package was around INR 6.5 lakhs.

Yes, you have to give all the exams. The only exception case with you will be that you will have an advantage of an NRI quota. Or else, it will be a general ranking. And, yes you are eligible.

Hi Riya!
It is definitely possible but each fashion institute has its own eligibility criteria. Some may allow admission to a candidate hailing from any educational background while others would prefer a candidate who has done graduation in design field itself. You will have to check the criteria of all the colleges that you are interested in. For example: Pearl Academy will not consider your application for the Masters programme but NID and NIFT would accept the application as the admission criteria is solely dependent on how you perform in the entrance exam. You can find a rank wise list of top design colleges in India by clicking on

Sometimes you can apply late to school with a small fine. Check if there is anything else you can do. If NID is the only school you want to get in to you're only option is taking a gap year.
Don't allow yourself to think that its a waste of your time. Instead, try to think of this as an opportunity to prepare for the exam and work on your portfolio and your skills.
Schools like NID look for students who are ambitious and have leadership skills. Students who care deeply about a cause and go out of their way to make a change are some of the things these colleges appreciate.
