Danielle & Chantelle Dwomah-Piper said, “Don’t let dreams just be a dream. With God, hard work and determination it can become a reality”.
I truly believe in this inspirational quote. Not just for what it conveys but also the motivation it offers me when possibilities seem few and doubt takes over.
As a child, I enjoyed designing and styling clothes for my dolls. My passion for fashion grew intense over time and I eventually developed a strong inclination to take up a Fashion Designing Course.
Now, when it comes to taking up a course, it’s not an easy decision because you need to look into many aspects. For example, the Fashion Designing institute, duration of the course, course structure, fees, etc. This is where my search for a good institute began.
I was looking for fashion schools that could not only nurture and mould individuals but also stimulate them into becoming strong professionals.
You see, passing out from a reputed institute is important because along with acquiring the right skill and guidance, your creativity find the right path too.
One afternoon, as I was pondering on how to take this forward, an old friend of mine happened to call. During our chat, I mentioned to her that I was very keen on doing a fashion design certificate course.
She recommended Hamstech Institute of Fashion and Interior Design, Hyderabad. As a beginner, with no experience in creative education, I was quite apprehensive. But her belief in this institute seemed unshakable.
She explained that she herself had recently secured an Interior Design Diploma from there and was now running her own store. I regarded her as a case study and finally made the decision to pay Hamstech a visit.
After going through their infrastructural premises and talking to their faculty, I chose to do their 2-year certificate course in fashion design. I found a great amount of cooperation and support from the Hamstech family, for family is what they call themselves.
During my course, I learned how to implement new skills, understand colour psychology, etc. Most importantly, I got a chance to showcase my talent by participating in the HLabel fashion shows. What more could an aspiring designer ask for!
After completion of the fashion course, I benefited immensely as I got an opportunity to work closely with designers and fashion houses. My knowledge and vision expanded and today, I’m an independent professional.
The industries of this age are all corporate-driven. Do remember this small piece of advice, it is important for every aspiring designer to acquire a certification (like I did) to be able to start a career of their own.
Hamstech gave me the ideal platform to launch a career in fashion when I doubted my capability as well as opportunities. So, live by Danielle & Chantelle Dwomah-Piper’s quote. Because there’s no dream that can’t become reality!
