Introduction Department of
Fashion & Design
The Bachelor of Design (B.Des) at AIFD (Asian Institute of Fashion Design), Iqra University, offers three dynamic disciplines—Fashion Design, Textile Design, and Marketing & Merchandising. Each discipline is designed to equip students with industry-relevant skills, creative expertise, and a strong understanding of global design practices.
Fashion Design focuses on conceptualizing and creating innovative clothing and accessories. Textile Design centers on the development of patterns, textures, and surfaces for fabrics. Both fields are deeply interconnected, with fashion designers relying on textile designers to craft unique materials that elevate their creative visions.
Students enrolled in the B.Des program gain a comprehensive understanding of design history, colour theory, composition, fabric science, dyeing, printing, and manufacturing techniques. Through hands-on studio practice, they develop their own textile patterns, garment prototypes, and design collections.
In addition to technical training, the program incorporates essential courses in business, marketing, and entrepreneurship—recognizing the competitive nature of the fashion and textile industry and the need for graduates to navigate both creative and commercial landscapes effectively.
If you have a keen eye for design, a passion for innovation, and a drive to excel, the B.Des degree at AIFD equips you with the knowledge, skills, and global perspective needed to thrive and seize opportunities in the world of fashion and design.
