Fashion Design

Garment construction is a major part of the Fashion Design curriculum. Students don't just design on paper, they actually create garments. This includes:

• Drafting patterns

• Cutting fabric

• Stitching and finishing garments

• Fittings and alterations

Over semesters, students move from simple silhouettes to more complex garments. 

The course is quite beginner-friendly!

Many students join without knowing stitching or sketching properly. The first year focuses on basics like fabric knowledge, hand stitches, basic pattern making, and fashion illustration. Faculty don't assume prior experience and teach everything step by step. Students are encouraged to make mistakes early so they learn properly. By the end of the first year, most students feel significantly more confident than when they started.

TDV includes Design Aptitude Test and Personal Interview. The student's are evaluated based on their creativity and problem-solving skills.

The entrance exam is held for 2 hours. It includes MCQs and descriptive questions which will evaluate the student's creative abilities, analytical skills and awareness.

There isn't one single "best" fashion design entrance exam, but the NIFT Entrance Exam is most popular in India for its top-tier institutes, followed by NID DAT, UCEED, and private exams like Pearl Academy's and TDV for broader options
