Fashion designing is
one of most artistic fields and has witnessed a steady growth in recent times.
One of the reasons for this is globalization. A lot of international labels
have established themselves in the country and a lot of Indian designers have
made big on the global scene. But to reach those heights, your fundamentals need
to be strong and for that you need a quality education.
Education is the
first step towards starting your career, be it the typical nine to five job or a
job with unrestricted hours. As far as fashion designing is concerned you may
have the artistic skills to become a fashion designer, but you need the backing
of a formal education to learn the very essence of designing. A formal
education is necessary for anyone for any career in the fashion industry, from
designing to managing.

| Rocky S |
Rocky S, one of the
most influential designers in India, has made a niche in the fashion industry.
He has successfully established his brand ‘Rocky S’ on both national and
international levels. His initial education was in commerce, but his passion
was fashion. He had the knack for picking up the right clothes and would be the
fashion advisor for his friends. Coming from a conventional family, breaking
away was a little challenging. But he did emerge victorious and joined J. D. Institute
for Fashion Designing. He had an eye for fashion and the hands of an artist but
these skills need to be developed and enhanced which is what a formal education
did. Working for Roopam was his first break and a couple of years he entered
the world glamour by designing for Akshay Kumar.
