8. Experience can play an important role
in our career as a fashion designer.
Meridian has well trained us because
people with a certain amount of
practical training or experience are
usually preferred over those who have
no experience. So, it’s necessary that
we have received some kind of
practical training in fashion.
Meridian Academy of Design has
made me build a strong foundation in
terms of design sense,
Independent research, creative
application and individual artistic
expression.
During the course duration of diploma
