About Professional Saree Draping
Saree Philosophy
For me, a saree is not just a piece of cloth - it’s pure magic. I love mixing old-school saree draping techniques with a little modern swag to get a look that feels truly yours. My aim? You should feel confident, comfortable, and beautiful. That’s real saree love.
Drape for Every Occasion
Whether it’s your wedding, sangeet, festival, or baby shower, I make sure your saree looks on point and stays secure. Seriously, my clients have danced for hours and their saree pleats didn’t move. Even if you’re new to sarees or nervous about wearing one, I’ll sort you out so you feel chill and put together.
Styles I Offer
I’m all about exploring saree versatility, matching style with occasion and fabric:
- Bridal and wedding guest draping for non-stop celebrations.
- Classic regional styles - Bengali, Kerala, and more.
- Regal Maharani style saree for that royal vibe.
- Modern and basic drapes like Ulta Pallu.
- Saree draping for baby shower and comfort-first maternity looks.
Maharashtrian Nauvari Love
I’m a proud Maharashtrian porgi, so Nauvari saree draping is my jam. If you want that authentic nine-yard look for weddings or Ganesh Chaturthi, I’ll help you rock it like a true local.
Extras & Service Area
I come to your place (Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane) and can also do quick saree pre-pleating if you need to save time. Your saree, ready in minutes, no stress.

We want you comfy, happy, and looking fab, always.
