The Apparel Training and Design Centre has entered into a partnership with Juki India to offer product specialty courses and training in lingerie wear. ATDC is India’s largest vocational training network for the apparel sector. Indian consumers are becoming aware of the significance of inner wear. Based on the income classification of consumers, they can be identified as those who have less than five pieces, between six to 10 pieces, and over 10 pieces.

Juki produces different machines used for making lingerie wear especially bras. It has machines that can be used in cup making, strap making and cutting, D-ring attaching and advanced machines that do not need thread trimming after sewing.

Keeping in mind the need to bridge the skill and knowledge gaps in the lingerie industry, ATDC is announcing various courses. To begin with ATDC Bangalore will be conducting workshops for the industry and faculty. These are aimed at short programs on pattern making, design and style analysis, introduction to operations etc. A detailed training course of 300 hours is proposed to commence in the first quarter of 2016. This program will include basic designing, body measurements, pattern making, and introduction to materials used in lingerie wear in addition to practical sewing.
