About Professional Saree Draping

Wearing a saree can feel like magic, but let's be real, getting the drape right is not always easy. I've seen how messy pleats and constant fixing can kill the vibe. For me, "Saree pehenna ek kala hai" (Wearing a saree is an art) - and I want you to feel that confidence, not stress.

What I Offer

I come to you, anywhere in Mumbai, whether it's a shaadi, party, or professional shoot. My job is to handle the saree draping, so you don't have to worry about it.
Bridal saree drape that stays put for hours - even with all the ceremonies and dancing.
Comfortable saree draping for events or parties, tailored for your vibe, from classic to modern.
Saree styling for photoshoots - I know how to work with photographers and models to get the perfect look.

My Approach

I always check the saree fabric and your body type before starting - because one style doesn't fit all.
Pleats matter! I make sure they're sharp and secured, so you can move freely.
If you want, I’ll give you styling tips - jewelry, blouse, even poses to bring out the best in your saree.

Pre-Pleated Saree Service

If you're traveling, have a heavy saree, or just want things quick, I offer a pre-pleated saree service. Courier your saree to me, I’ll iron and fold it perfectly, and send it back in a box, ready to wear - even if you’re outside Mumbai.

Let’s make your saree look so good, you’ll actually want more photos.

My Story

You know that feeling when you wear a saree for the first time, thoda awkward but mostly magical? For me, that magic stuck around. I just fell for sarees – one piece of cloth, so much story, so many memories. Every pleat I make, I remember my own first drape. Now, I help others find that same confidence, so no more saree struggles, just pure grace. Saree ka maza hi alag hai (the joy of saree is something else).
