How to Drape a Saree for Beginners – Step-by-Step Guide | Kaash Collection
Draping a saree is an art that enhances elegance and grace. Whether you're wearing a saree for a wedding, festival, or formal event, mastering the drape can transform your look. Follow this beginner-friendly guide to drape a saree effortlessly.
Step 1: Gather Your Essentials
Before you start, make sure you have:
✅ A saree of your choice
✅ A well-fitted blouse
✅ A petticoat (matching the saree color)
✅ Safety pins for secure draping
✅ Heels (wear them before draping for the right length)
Step 2: Tuck and Wrap the Saree
1️⃣ Start with the Petticoat: Tie your petticoat snugly at the waist. This will serve as the base for tucking in the saree.
2️⃣ Tuck the Saree: Take the plain, non-embroidered end of the saree and tuck it into the petticoat from your right side, moving towards the left. Wrap one full round around your waist.
3️⃣ Adjust the Length: Ensure the saree just touches the floor while wearing heels.
Step 3: Make Perfect Pleats
1️⃣ Create 5-7 Pleats: Hold the saree at waist level and start folding it into even pleats (each pleat should be around 5-6 inches wide).
2️⃣ Tuck in the Pleats: Once you have neatly made your pleats, tuck them into the petticoat at the center of your waist.
3️⃣ Secure with a Pin: Use a safety pin to keep the pleats in place and prevent them from opening.
Step 4: Drape the Pallu Elegantly
1️⃣ Take the loose end of the saree (pallu) and drape it over your left shoulder.
2️⃣ Adjust the length so that it falls gracefully at waist level.
3️⃣ Either pin the pallu neatly for a formal look or leave it open for a flowing effect.
Step 5: Final Touches
✅ Check the drape: Ensure the pleats are even and the pallu is falling neatly.
✅ Use additional safety pins: Pin the saree at the shoulder and waist to keep it secure.
✅ Style with accessories: Pair your saree with matching bangles, earrings, and a bindi for a traditional touch.
