The Sari Drap
As saree draping is very simple here some tips to drap a saree
In office & Meetings you should pinup your saree, since this looks well-dressed and is convenient too.
For an parties or a function you can just pinup the tip of the saree and let the rest drop on your hand. This gives a very stylish look.
Cotton, Tissue or any starched Sarees should be ironed properly and at the time of draping, the pleats should be done with the hands pressing and shaping it properly.
You should put the pin on the back shoulder as this keeps the saree intact and does not show the pin too.
Next time wearing a saree will be on your finger tips.
