acquired tremendous growth and popularity and considering its benevolent output
the Government of Orissa recognized it as regular academic institute and the
Utkal University of Culture bestowed an affiliation to offer Degree courses in
all three prime disciplines viz. Fashion Design, Interior Design and Textile

About Fashion
design :
Fashion design is a form of art dedicated
to the creation of clothing and other lifestyle accessories. Modern fashion
design is divided into two basic categories: haute couture and ready-to-wear.
The haute couture collection is dedicated to certain customers and is custom
sized to fit these customers exactly. In order to qualify as a haute couture
house, a designer has to be part of the Syndical Chamber for Haute Couture and
show a new collection twice a year presenting a minimum of 35 different outfits
each time.
Ready-to-wear collections are standard
sized, not custom made, so they are more suitable for large production runs.
They are also split into two categories: designer/createur and confection
collections. Designer collections have a higher quality and finish as well as
an unique design. They often represent a certain philosophy and are created to
make a statement rather than for sale. Both ready-to-wear and haute-couture
collections are presented on international catwalks.
