As 2025 drew to a close, December emerged as a milestone month for JD School of Design, encapsulating everything that the institution stands for: experiential learning, industry relevance, and a progressive vision toward design education in India. From immersive experiences in fashion to national recognition, the month was a celebration of creativity in action and ideas brought to life.

The iconic walk with Lulu–Face of Lulu 2025: Where learning met the runway.

December opened its doors to glamour, grit, and real-life exposure with The Iconic Walk with Lulu – Face of Lulu 2025. Because more than a fashion show, it turned out to be one big living classroom for the students of JD School of Design.

From the pulse of backstage management as crew members to confidently owning the runway as participants, students got to experience firsthand the nuances of the fashion industry. A hands-on approach bridges the gap between theory and practice, an approach central to JD’s educational philosophy.

Adding to the spectacle was the presence of JD alumni designers who made a comeback to the runway, this time as established professionals, showcasing their collections with pride. A testimony to growth, continuity, and creative evolution was the sight of alumni thriving in the industry while current students trained within the same ecosystem.

It was a beautiful blend of confidence, collaboration, and creativity, further reinforcing the commitment of JD School of Design to learning that goes beyond the four walls of the classroom.
