OGIFT's 6-Month Diploma in Fashion Designing is a comprehensive, industry-recognised qualification that covers every essential discipline of professional fashion education in a focused, rigorous six-month programme. It is the most popular full qualification at OGIFT and is specifically designed for students who want a thorough, practical fashion education that prepares them for real employment in the Indian fashion industry — in less time than a full 1-year programme, but with significantly greater depth than a short course. The 6-month diploma includes 100% placement support and is taught by faculty with active industry experience at the OGIFT campus in Vinayakanagar, Bengaluru.
The 6-month diploma curriculum is structured across six integrated units. Unit 1 covers Design Fundamentals — design elements and principles, fashion history and trends, design research, mood board creation, and the development of a cohesive design vocabulary. Unit 2 covers Fashion Illustration — figure proportion, croqui development, garment sketching, fabric rendering, and the creation of professional fashion plates. Unit 3 covers Fabric and Textile Science — fiber types, fabric construction, dyeing and printing, fabric selection, and care and handling. Unit 4 covers Pattern Making — body measurement, basic block construction, dart manipulation, and the drafting of a comprehensive range of Indian and western garment patterns. Unit 5 covers Garment Construction — sewing techniques, seam construction and finishing, complete garment assembly from cut to finished product. Unit 6 covers Fashion Styling and Portfolio Development — body type analysis, styling principles, trend application, and the creation of a complete professional portfolio ready for employment.
