About Industry Placements: Backstage & Runways
You won’t just be observing from the sidelines here. Our placement program drops you straight into the high-pressure environment of professional fashion weeks, where you have minutes to execute a designer's vision under bright lights. It is chaotic, it is demanding, and it is exactly the kind of real-world training that turns an amateur into a working artist.
When you join our programs, the classroom is only the beginning. Our placements aren't about watching; they are about doing. Whether it is managing intense kohl eyes for a Raw Mango show in Ahmedabad or executing a minimalist runway look at Lakme Fashion Week, you work alongside our senior faculty in real-time.
Our Platinum Signature Course guarantees 30 practical assignments, giving you a year of immersion in high-stakes events like IIFA, Filmfare, and international Dior shows. You learn to handle the speed of a runway, the specific requirements of celebrity managers, and the collaborative spirit needed to thrive on a professional hair and makeup team. This is where you test your limits, build your confidence, and start networking with the people who will actually hire you later. If you want a career that moves fast, this is where you start.
