About Saree Draping Academy
My Approach
Namaskara! For me, saree draping is not just about looking nice, it's about doing it right - gunamattadinda (with quality). I put my heart into every class, making sure you not only learn but can actually do it yourself, confidently. If you want to take saree draping seriously or turn it into a work-from-home saree draping gig, you’re in the right place.
What You’ll Learn
- Fluffy pleats that look neat and stylish - not those tight, stiff ones.
- Box folding and hanger folding so sarees are ready-to-wear any time.
- Custom draping for all body types - slim, plus-size, elders, brides.
- How to use the right tools, and fix those common mistakes everyone makes.
- Everything you need for a saree pre-pleating business course, from the basics to packing sarees like a pro.
Who I Teach
- Homemakers, students, anyone thinking “manele kutu earnings na start madbeku” (want to earn from home).
- Makeup artists who want to offer a full bridal saree draping package.
- Brides-to-be, and anyone tired of struggling with sarees.
How My Classes Work
- Options for full-day group workshops with certificate, one-on-one private classes, or online look & learn - for those who can’t travel to Bangalore.
- Every student gets hands-on practice, not just watching me demo.
- Over 600 students trained, so no question is too basic for me.
I promise, you’ll walk away with real, practical skills and the confidence to start your own professional journey.

My Story
Hello! Naanu Asha Nagaraj. Saree draping is more than a job for me and my sister—it’s our life. We started 'Siblings Makeover Studio & Academy' and for 5 years, every bride’s smile and every student’s first perfect pleat makes it all worth it. Yarella manele kutu earnings na start madbeku antha ankondeedira (Whoever wants to start earning from home), I want to help. Training 600+ students, watching them grow, that’s my real joy. More than sarees, it’s about building strong, independent women.
