Saree draping is the traditional method of donning a saree, which consists of a long piece of fabric draped around the body to form a garment. In South Asian countries such as India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan, draping a saree is a common practise.
Depending on the region and cultural traditions, there are a variety of methods to drape a saree. Commonly, a saree is draped by wrapping the fabric around the waist, precisely pleating it, and then draping it over the shoulder. The extremity of the saree is then tucked into the waistband, and the pallu (which drapes over the shoulder) is arranged decoratively.
Saree draping is an art form, and there are numerous draping designs from which to choose. Some designs are more conventional, while others are more fashionable and contemporary. Weddings, festivals, and formal events are common occasions when women choose to wear a saree.
The practise of draping a saree has become increasingly popular outside of South Asia, and many people have begun to incorporate this traditional garment into their wardrobes. There are numerous ways to wear a saree, and the options are practically limitless. Sarees can be paired with a number of accessories, including jewellery, bracelets, and sandals, to create a fashionable ensemble.
