About this collection
You know that feeling where you are constantly adjusting your pallu? My job is to fix that. I use strategic pinning and fabric-specific folds so your pleats stay sharp and your pallu stays put, even if you are dancing or moving around all evening.
Every saree tells a story, and the way you drape it changes everything. Whether it is a heavy Banarasi for a wedding, a flowing Chiffon for a party, or a structured Kanjeevaram, the technique matters. My draping service focuses on two things: the look and the comfort.
My Draping Approach
I specialize in various styles, including:
- Classic Nivi: The timeless, elegant look perfect for any occasion.
- South Indian Styles: Precision pleating for Langa Voni or traditional heavy silk drapes.
- Regional Variations: I handle Gujarati (Sidha Pallu), Coorgi, and other regional styles with ease.
Why Professional Draping?
It is not just about tucking in fabric. I take care of the technical side—waist tightening for a slimming silhouette, managing heavy borders, and ensuring the pallu sits right. I use heavy-duty, rust-proof pins that are hidden but secure, so you do not have to worry about the saree slipping off while you are socializing or dancing.
Pre-Pleating Service
If you are worried about the rush on the day of the event, I offer a pre-pleating service. I will come to your location, measure the saree for your height and waist, and set the pleats perfectly. I can even fold them into a box for you, so it takes you less than two minutes to get ready.
I am based in Goregaon but travel across the Mumbai Metropolitan Area to venues, homes, and outstation events. Whatever your outfit, let me handle the draping so you can focus on the celebration.
