Silk – one of the finest of all-natural fibers…the pride that one feels flaunting a beautiful Mysore Silk saree or a Banarasi Brocade…..but do we know all the intricate processes that go behind the creation of this fabric?
The Fashion design Diploma Students got an opportunity to visit The Central Silk Board, Bangalore on 13th Nov 2019, as part of their hands-on Industry learning. Under the able guidance of Sericulture Scientist Mr. Itagi, the students were taken on a journey of silk beginning from the eggs, cocoons, unreeling filaments, twisting of silk filaments to the final creation of the silk fabric.
It was a wonderful learning experience for the students and Mr. Itagi stressed on how our future designers should make full use of the resources available locally and use creativity and modern technology to fulfill their dream of becoming a successful designer.
