Saree Pleating & Draping Course

Perfecting Pleats

Perfecting Pleats was born from my own journey with sarees. For years, I hardly draped sarees on myself, I was always the one draping for my mother, sister, or friends. It took me a while to realise that draping for yourself feels completely different, it’s personal, patient, and powerful.

That’s exactly what inspired this program. This course is for anyone who wants to really understand the art of saree pleating and draping whether it’s for personal confidence or to refine your skills as a professional artist or stylist.
