Testimonials

Student from Quetta

“A small town is the last place for someone looking for creative talent. When I came to PIFD, I realised that it did not matter where one came from. PIFD looks for drive and passion completed with basic technical skills.”

Maria B. | Alumni | Entrepreneur

“PIFD is a premier Institute that is at par with any other institute in the world especially in terms of technical know-how. I’m happy to see that the syllabus has improved tremendously. It is more well-rounded and comprehensive and more subjects will continue to be added to it. It is a true success story.”

Hassan Sheheryar Yasin (HSY) | Alumni | Entrepreneur

“It’s here that I learned so much about what it takes to make it in the industry and the friends. There is no other institute like this in the country. To be the best you need to be educated by the best.”

Moeed Mufti | Alumni | Assistant Buyer Merchant Levis Strauss Pakistan

“The four years at Pakistan institute of Fashion and Design (PIFD) have been nothing short of a roller coaster ride. Being part of the very first batch that graduated out of the Fashion Marketing and Merchandising programme was as challenging as it was rewarding”.

Mian Mansha | Chairman Nishat Group

“PIFD is a revolution within itself. We are now able to offer top-quality, highly competitive and value added goods to global market. I am pleased to see that PIFD has launched new degree programs in highly exportable products. I wish them good luck.”

Farrukh Hussain Sheikh | CEO Hub Leather

“We are competing in a global market where value addition and competitiveness are the only ways to survive. PIFD has played a vital role in the export promotion of textile sector but now they are focusing on producing designers for leather products as well. It will be a great support for the leather industry and we will be able to compete with other players in the global market.”

Zahid Hussain | CEO Borjan

“Design plays key role in shoe manufacturing industry. Imitating foreign brand’s designs has been the practice of most of the local leather shoe companies. Time has changed the rules of the game now. Original, functional and unique designs can win the customers’ hearts. I am pleased to see PIFD offering 4 year degree programe in Leather, Footwear and Accessories. This will serve as great contribution to leather industry and a real booster for exporting locally manufactured Leather, Footwear and Accessories.”

Ather ur Rehman | CEO Ruby Jewellers

“We always felt a need to have locally qualified jewellery designers. PIFD’s 4 year degree program gives us a sense of trust that like textile sector, in near future, PIFD graduates will rock the Jewellery fashion industry and will earn huge foreign exchange by exporting value added products worldwide.”

Sohaib Bhatti | CEO US Apparel

“US Apparel owes credit to PIFD for supplying creative and dynamic textile and fashion designers. PIFD’s international affiliation makes the real difference. PIFD students gain global exposure before they become a part of local industry. This adds real value to the local manufacturing set-up and hence, we can match the international standards in our finished products.”
