The School of Fashion and Design, established by the Ministry of Commerce in Lahore, Pakistan, in 1995, has made a significant value-enhancing contribution to the textile and apparel sector in a short period. The school will now comprise four departments: Fashion Design, Textile Design, Accessories and Product Design and Fashion Marketing and Promotion. These departments will impart training in a broad range of disciplines, including sportswear, menswear, jewellery, leather accessories, footwear, ceramics, furniture and carpets.
