Whether I am styling a traditional Peshwai drape or converting your six-yard saree into a flared lehenga, my focus remains on comfort so you can actually enjoy your wedding events without constantly adjusting your outfit. ### Your Look, Your Way My work is built on a 'less is more' philosophy. Whether you want the royal look of a Peshwai Nauvari or a fusion Devsena drape that creates a slimmer silhouette, I ensure the outcome is practical, not just aesthetic. For events like Haldi or Sangeet, I specialize in transforming six-yard sarees into voluminous lehengas using can-can skirts, giving you a new outfit without buying one. ### Why My Draping Stands Out * **Comfort Engineering:** I use premium rust-proof pins and internal structural pinning to ensure your saree stays perfect for 6+ hours. * **Personalized Silhouettes:** I tailor the drape to your height and frame, focusing on waist definition and ease of movement. * **Minimalist Makeup:** My signature soft glam approach uses HD and airbrush techniques to enhance your natural skin texture, not hide it behind layers of product. ### Frequently Asked Questions **Do you travel for weddings?** I regularly travel to locations across Mumbai, Pune, and Nashik for bridal bookings. **How long does a complex drape take?** Depending on the complexity, such as a Nauvari or a Saree-to-Lehenga conversion, it typically takes 45 to 60 minutes to perfect the pleats and secure the structure. **Do I need to provide the pins?** I carry premium rust-proof safety pins for all my assignments to protect your delicate fabrics. Please keep your jewelry and any specific can-can skirts ready for me on the day. ## About Shraddha Patkar I’m Shraddha. I don’t believe in masking your face; I believe in bringing out your glow.
