This is the first glimpse clients get of my work. I've selected these visuals to showcase the skill, the stunning results, and the hands-on learning experience you'll get at my workshop.
Hands-On Saree Draping Training
This is more than a demonstration; it's a fully practical workshop where you will be doing, not just watching. As the first certified saree draping workshop in Navi Mumbai, I focus on teaching you the core techniques, from handling different fabrics to advanced tricks like pre-pleating and box folding, so you can become truly aatmnirbhar (self-reliant).
Maharashtrian Bridal & Festive Styles
I specialize in creating timeless Maharashtrian looks for brides and festive occasions. This gallery showcases a range of styles, from the iconic nine-yard Nauvari and Peshwai drapes to elegant Paithani looks, each customized to the fabric, event, and client's personal style.
Themed & Conceptual Draping
Saree draping can be a form of storytelling. For photoshoots or special cultural events, I create powerful, themed looks like this 'Shivkanya' concept, using the drape, fabric, and color to evoke a specific character or historical era.
Diverse Draping Styles
The fundamental skills of pleating, tucking, and managing fabric are universal. The techniques I teach in my workshop can be adapted to create beautiful drapes from all across India, including this classic South Indian bridal look.
