I use a steam-pressing technique that relaxes the fabric fibers just enough to hold a sharp pleat without flattening the intricate zari work. I finish with rust-proof pinning to secure the pallu and center pleats so they do not shift once you start walking. It stays exactly how I set it, even after hours of wear. Heavy silk sarees like Kanjivarams, Pattu, or intricate Banarasi brocades are beautiful, but they can be a challenge to drape perfectly. The fabric is often stiff, the zari is heavy, and getting the pallu to sit at the right angle can take 20 minutes of frustration on a busy day. ### My Process I customize the drape to your specific height. I measure your waist and fall length so the pleats do not trip you up and the pallu sits at the perfect angle on your shoulder. ### The Box Fold Advantage If you are traveling for a wedding or an event, I offer box-folding. I condense the entire 6-yard pre-pleated saree into a compact 12x14 inch box shape. This ensures the pleats remain crisp inside your suitcase, so when you reach your destination, you do not need to hunt for an iron or a professional draper. Just pull it out, wrap it around, and secure it. It turns a 30-minute ordeal into a 3-minute task. ### Hanger Delivery If you are not traveling, I provide hanger delivery. The saree stays on a wide-shouldered hanger in a dust-proof cover, keeping the pleats intact until you need to wear it. Whether you are prepping for a Muhurtham, a reception, or a festival like Varamahalakshmi, the goal is the same: you should look and feel comfortable in your silk, not constrained by it. ## About Nimmi Hi, I am Nimmi. I believe saree draping is an art, but getting ready should not be a chore. I focus on making those heavy silks behave so you can actually enjoy your event instead of worrying about your pleats shifting.
