My college experience was a kaleidoscope of creativity, innovation, and self-discovery. As a fashion design student, I was immersed in a world of colors, textures, and silhouettes. From sketching designs to bringing them to life on the runway, every moment was a thrill. I remember spending countless hours in the campus, perfecting my collection, and learning from mentors who were industry experts. The curriculum was rigorous, but it prepared me for the fast-paced fashion world. College was also a time for experimentation and exploration. I delved into sustainable fashion, explored different cultures' textile traditions, and even dabbled in fashion Styling. The highlight of my college experience was showcasing my final collection at the annual fashion show. Seeing my designs on the runway, with models strutting to music, was a surreal moment. College taught me the technical skills, but also instilled in me the confidence to take risks, think creatively, and push boundaries. It was a journey of self-expression, growth, and transformation. Now, as a professional fashion designer, I look back at those four years with nostalgia and gratitude. College was the canvas where I painted my dreams, and I'm still adding colors to that masterpiece.

I am a 2024 batch pass-out. I started my life in SOFT during COVID, but even when the world was shut, SOFT continued to persist for better education for its students. The faculty is top notch and possess industry experience. The practical as well as theory subjects were taught in a way which helped us create interest. During the internship and placement process, we were given various opportunities. I interned with Landmark Group where I could use everything I had learned during my time in SOFT and got extremely good exposure to the industry and its intricacies. I was placed with Myntra as a kids wear designer even before I gave my final exam. I am extremely thankful to our TPO, Ms. Smita Pattanaik ma'am for her constant guidance and support. I also thank our Principal Dr. Ms. Garima Bhalla, our CC Dr. Yogesh Bokil and all the faculties who helped me reach where I am today.

People opt for professional courses to get a head start at their careers. But what I learnt at SOFT was so much more that the curriculum. I learnt leadership, sisterhood, accountability and more. During my time at SOFT I truly found my passion- Luxury Brand Management. Which I later went on to explore. Today, as a professional Design Thinker, I'm truly grateful for the solid foundation SOFT gave me.

SOFT is not an institute, it is my extended family. I may have graduated, but I've never left SOFT - a place that gave me wings to fly. Nowhere else have I seen an institute go through such great lengths to give their young minds the kind of creative exposure and training in the fashion industry. I have witnessed SOFT grow from strength to strength, and share its success with not just its faculty and students, but with weavers, craftspeople, artists and alumni as well. Its association with other institutions in India as well as abroad has opened up a world full of opportunities for young ladies who aspire to make it big in the fashion industry. I am proud to call School Of Fashion Technology, Pune my alma mater.

Studying at the SOFT has changed my life in a way that words cannot describe. It has opened my eyes, and exposed me to newer opportunities that I've only dreamt of seeing before. The teachers at SOFT were extremely knowledgeable and experienced. They were down to earth, laid back and easy to get along with. Right from the start they threw exercises at us that were uncomfortable and forced us out of our comfort zone, but it made me better. They had high expectations of us and they made that evident. With their help and guidance along the way, I was able to produce work that is far better than any work I have produced in the past.
