About Engagements, Receptions & Parties
Engagement parties and receptions involve a lot of movement, from greeting guests to posing for photos. My signature draping technique focuses on creating a secure, sharp silhouette without using any heat, which keeps your designer silks or delicate net sarees safe from damage while ensuring they stay perfectly in place for hours.
When you are the center of attention at your engagement or reception, your saree should be the last thing you worry about. Whether you have chosen a heavy Kanchipuram silk, a flowing chiffon, or a delicate designer net piece, my job is to ensure the drape is comfortable and reliable.
I treat every saree with the respect it deserves. My no-heat pleating method is essential for party wear, as it protects the fabric from long-term damage while creating crisp, clean lines that enhance your look. I often work with modern silhouettes like the Mermaid Drape or customized styles for lehenga-sarees to ensure you have that perfect, polished finish for your event photos.
Since I coordinate with your makeup artist and hairstylist, we ensure your overall look is cohesive. If you are planning an event in Kerala or anywhere else in India, I travel to your venue to provide a stress-free experience. I have worked with diverse clients, from celebrities to brides, and my goal is always to make sure you feel confident and elegant. If you have a specific drape in mind or a challenging fabric, let me know, and we will find the perfect way to style it for your special day.
