Fashion designing students of Patna Women's College have put their creations on display  at an exhibition, 'Tints & Shades', which opened on the college campus on Thursday. Many of the creations are a mixture of traditional Bihari art and modern creativity.

Priyanka Jaiswal, a student, said, "I have been working on 'kurtis' with 'batik' and 'bandhani' designs for over three months. We created the rough designs on paper before using them on the dress materials." Nazia Tabbasum, another student, added, "We have also prepared design books for western and traditional wears."

Besides dress materials, also on display at the exhibition are lamp shade, cushion cover and Madhubani paintings. "The students have done an excellent work," said Tanuja Kishore, HoD, department of fashion designing.
