IILM Institute For Higher Education

At IILM University, Gurugram the following are offered

• B.Des Fashion Design 
• B.Des Product Design
• B.Des Interior Design

Students who do well in a Fashion Design course are those who:

• Are open to criticism

• Life-long learning attitude

• Can manage time well

• Are willing to redo work

• Enjoy hands-on learning

• Value creativity and expression

Fashion Design is more time-intensive than many theory-based courses.

Students often spend long hours in studios, especially near submissions. It requires physical stamina as well as creativity. However, students who genuinely enjoy design usually find the workload challenging but rewarding.

The course prepares students through:

• Strict deadlines

• Repeated feedback and corrections

• Studio discipline

• Exposure to industry expectations

Students learn that fashion is not just creativity but also patience, precision, and consistency.

Sketches are evaluated based on concept clarity, proportion, detailing, and improvement over time.

Faculty focus on whether a student is developing rather than whether they are perfect artists. Even students who struggle with drawing improve steadily through practice and feedback.

Assignments are mostly practical. Students work on:

• Theme-based collections

• Fabric exploration and manipulation

• Mood boards and concept development

• Design sketches and technical drawings

• Finished garments and samples

There is some theory, like fashion history or textiles, but even those subjects may involve visual or creative submissions rather than long written answers.

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.

IILM follows a credit-based academic system where each subject carries a certain number of credits based on teaching hours and workload.

Core subjects usually carry more credits, while skill-based or elective courses may carry fewer.

Students must complete a fixed number of credits per semester and across the entire programme to graduate. This system also supports flexibility under NEP, allowing structured progression and academic tracking.
