One of the techniques that are taught in WLCI Fashion School is the surface ornamentation technique. This is an age-old technique used profusely by all designers. Surface ornamentation not only adds to the aesthetics of the fabric/clothing but also increases its value by appearance and price. 

There are various avenues of surface ornamentation like-

  • Embroidery: India has a rich heritage of embroidery and handiwork.
