There’s no denying that the level of talent coming out of this school is unbelievable – students inventively played around with many textiles, silhouettes and stylings.

The textile design department showcased their design collections in their graduation show ‘TANTU 2013’. These lines were created as their final year projects, and developed them in major textile companies across the country on the basis of trend forecasts for the forthcoming seasons.
