B. D. Somani Institute of Art & Fashion
Technology - India’s Premium Design
School celebrates 18 stylish years of
Innovative Fashion.
Along with strong academics, our focus
has been on industrial interaction through
guest seminars, technical & creative
demonstrations and industrial visits.
The Pearson BTEC Level 5 HND &
Pearson BTEC Level 4 HNC certification
from (Pearson UK) has extended our quality
vocational education to meet International
Standards with Global Recognition.
Our Dynamic Alumni has successfully
marked their creative niche. They are
spearheading many creative mega-brands,
designer labels and Retail giants. Our talent
has been contributing to India's best
Tarun Tahiliani, Manish Malhotra,
Sabyasaachi, Rocky S., Vikram Phadnis,
Neeta Lulla, Alok Industries, Mandhana
Industries, Creative Garments,
Future Group, Pantaloons, Shoppers Stop,
Westside, Balaji Film, UTV production,
Star TV to name few. Besides participating
in the Hong Kong World Boutique,
along with Mega Trade Fairs like CMAI,
In Fashion, Indzyn etc.
The Institute has proved its mettle in the
highly competitive world of professional
education. However, there still remains
a vast gap, between the standards of
competence we’ve attained, and the levels
of excellence we’ve set for ourselves...
A gap we hope to close, by drawing on
the experience and expertise of an Advisory
& Mentor Board comprising of outstanding
industry professionals, under whose
guidance and direction, the Institute
can grow in stature and relevance
to the industry needs and become
a reservoir of trained manpower
that the industry can readily draw on.
We are immensely glad and proud to have personalities of such
calibre associated with us
