## About From Old to Gold: Saree Upcycling

Transforming a vintage silk saree requires more than just cutting fabric. I personally assess the strength and drape of your heirloom pieces before designing, ensuring the final gown or anarkali maintains the royal, structured look you love without losing the soul of the original silk.

Your old sarees hold memories, but they often get stuck in the back of the wardrobe. I specialize in turning these forgotten pieces into fresh, wearable fashion. Whether it is an old Kanjeevaram that has seen better days or a beautiful Banarasi that you just do not wear anymore, we can give it a second life.

### The Upcycling Process

It all starts with a chat at my Jayanagar 1st Block studio. I examine the fabric to ensure it has enough structural integrity for a new silhouette. 

1. **Fabric Assessment:** I check for any wear or tear, especially around the pallu and borders, to decide the best way to utilize the material.
2. **Design Consultation:** We talk about what you want. Do you need a sleek Indo-Western gown, a trendy Anarkali, or perhaps a Lehenga for a family function? 
3. **Transformation:** Using strategic cutting and reinforcement, I incorporate elements like can-can layering and premium linings to provide the structure needed for soft, antique silks.

### Why Upcycle?

It is eco-friendly, sentimental, and completely unique. You end up with a garment that no one else has. 

**Pricing:** This service starts at ₹3500 and goes up to ₹6500 depending on the complexity of the design and the amount of additional work required. This price covers labor, lining materials, and secondary fabrics needed to construct the new piece. 

If you have a saree that you are hesitant to part with, bring it over. Let’s see how we can turn it into something you will love to wear again. 🌸
