To learn Fashion Designing was my passion, so I joined Waves Institute of Fashion Designing. The faculty were well experienced and supportive. Within the limited period of time they provided a lot of knowledge. So I'm thankful to WIFD for the wonderful experience provided to me.
I think I should say that, for me it is before and after WIFD. Earlier, I missed completeness and perfections in my works which was later cleared by well experienced teachers at WIFD. The friendly atmosphere helped me to know the world of designing and cleared all my doubts in that. WIFD made my works, look complete and perfect. The greatest achievement was that, I made my own Wedding Dress, which everyone admired...
