NAME-DivyaShrestha

BATCH-2009-2012

LEVEL-HCL-II

I am a creative person and so have chosen fashion as my carrier. I want to gain knowledge about fashion industry and the way a fashion organisation works.

In WLCI, I have gone through many interesting workshops, many visits to mills and industries which has helped me in learning about  how work is done on a large scale, it shows us the practical work  which is different from our books and theories we usually study. I have gone through a very friendly environment with the faculties who are always there for any type of help. I have attended and worked for many fashion shows such as Wills India Fashion Week as volunteer or designer trainee.

WLCI provides training and internships which is a great benefit for students. It has helped me in interacting with designers and knowing about how work is done in a many designer houses and export units.  It also helped in making my own contacts which will always help me in my upcoming future projects in industry.

I am planning to launch my own traditional or ethnic line in near future and market my garments commercially which people love to wear and appreciate my talent &creativity.

WLCI Fashion Trends For 2012-2013

Take a first look at the four trend topics: Color Riot, Dark Lux, Craft Industry and Split Clarity

Color Riot - Color in Revolt: In 'Color Riot', dynamic, thrumming shades of color appear in a new context - fresh, bold and vivid. And there are no limits on the interaction with light. High-gloss materials, colored laminations, superimpose'd, fluid and flexible fabrics underscore the brilliance of monochrome colors. New are, for example, 'optical fibers, iridescent effects and recycled materials. Decisive for the effect are the quality, wear resistance and longevity of the high-grade materials. When it comes to patterns, the trend experts expect, for example, broad stripes, all-over geometric patterns and graphic motifs. The computer world is- represented by digital designs, photographic prints and hologram effects. Despite the playful urge to experiment, the unexpected looks appear clear and unequivocal. Dark Lux The beauty of the night: The shadows of the night create a dark, mystical and elegant color series dominated by deep black, which is particularly expressive on lustrous materials. Rounding off the color world are dark, colored accents - pepped up by metallic champagne and gold. Rubberized, liquid looks and glossy surfaces interact with furs and long-haired, smooth hides. Clarity and severity give the sumptuous textiles their modern appearance. Iridescent, shimmering and transparent qualities with animated surface modulation generate an air of mystery. Deep gloss, metallic shimmers, sequins and elaborate materials are to be found in almost all segments. Craft Industry A blend of tradition, handicrafts and the modern: The combination of tradition and handicrafts on the one hand and industrial and mechanical methods on the other dominate the look of 'Craft Industry'. A sunny-warm and lively color series is oriented towards natural landscapes with sky, mountains, lakes and forests, which contrast with industrial, metallic coal, copper and old-gold tones. Split Clarity The bare essentials: Less is more - 'Split Clarity' concentrates on simple, functional and essential elements. In other words, the focus is on sustainability, quality, high technology and new materials. The result is clear-cut, modern aesthetics. Clarity is reflected by a series of colors inspired by nature. The minimalism and restrained compositions are generally interrupted by a single expressive shade. Material versatility is crucial. Metallic and reflecting surfaces, semi-plain patterns and transparent materials are used, as are animated but restrained surfaces. Linear, high-contrast and severe graphic designs set unequivocal accents. Depth is created by the interaction of light and shadow in different materials and surfaces.
