Easy Step by Step to Drape Indo Western Style Saree
- Take one end of the Saree, make 6-7 pleats and tuck it in the centre facing left.
- Tuck such that the remaining length of the Saree is to your left and emerges from the inner most pleat.
- Ensure the Saree length falls just an inch short of the floor.
- Tuck Saree towards left measuring your span width. You can even tuck the Saree half way around the back.
- Now, pick the other end of the Saree, make pallu pleats.
- Bring the pleats from around the back to the front and place it over the left shoulder.
- Leave the Saree loose so that it makes a deep U on the right side of the waist.
- Now, pin the pallu pleats neatly on the shoulder.
