Hello Anusuya! In my experience, the main factor in looking slim in a saree is the fabric: steer clear of stiffer fabrics like heavy silks and heavy cottons and pick something that will drape well. Also, avoid too light or too bright colors and shiny fabrics. Also, avoid bulky petticoats: I try to use some zipped, fitted summer skirt from my western wardrobe. After that, you need to make a few tries in front of the mirror and find your own most flattering drape (check sarisafari dot com and take inspiration from the countless photos on the internet). Remember that the main thing is not to add "inches", everything has to be fitted and neat, no bulking up anywhere; pull the sari to fit your figure and pin the pallu in place. Keep your perfect drape checked throughout the time of wearing your saree but remember to still act comfortable and natural. That's about all I can say and it does work for me! An unflattering sari drape can add 5-10 pounds, a flattering one can take 5-10 away. Hope this helps!

WEAR A SAREE IN NOT ONE BUT 125 DIFFERENT STYLES I have been helping people drape their saree for the past 6 years. I have all most lost the count of the numbers of people whose saree I have draped. I have draped many models, artists, film stars and brides all over the world. Yukta Mukhy, Diya Mirza, Tanushree Dutta, Kangana Ranuat, Lara Dutta are a few of my clients who enjoy my drapes over them. I can drape saree in almost all the styles like Gujrati, Hyderabadi, Bhopali ,Rajasthani, Lehanga, Bengali, Assameese and even the 9 yard saree. I have invented many style like hip-hop, tight fit, fish style half mumtaz and many more. I have very beautifully merged the Bengali pattern with the Rajasthani pattern. I personally come down to give away clients different style of drapes according to their requirements. I do a lot of photo shoots, fashion shows for the boutiques and the designers. Anyone keen in learning can contact me. My recent weddings :- Dhanseri Tea (Dhanuka Group) Kolkata (Bangkok) Dharam Pal Satya Pal Group (Rajnigandha) Delhi The Jindal Group Delhi Hira Group of Companies (Raipur) Sharda Group of Industries (Raipur) M.R.

NAME- DOLLY JAIN BASED- KOLKATA SPECIALIST IN - SAREE DRAPING CONTACT- 09831812133 / 09433054822 MAIL ME AT sareedraper@yahoo.com sareedraper@gmail.com. Website : www.sareedraper.com THE SAREE The rectangular unstitched format of the sari allows for individual creativity.There are many different styles for wearing a saree. A woman experiences sense of luxury when she wears a saree. A saree when draped properly makes a woman look more stylish, elegant, graceful and sensuous. A saree is the only outfit which reveals as much as it hides. Draping sarees in perfect style requires a lot of practice. A perfectly draped saree makes personality but clumsily draped saree can equally bring down the look of the saree and spoil the whole appearance of a woman. The beauty of the saree is enhanced by the way it is draped.I am a professional saree draper who can drape a saree in 125 styales and more.I can drape a bride three sarees and still make her look as slim and beautiful.There are many traditional drapes which still look very good and they are made to look more trendy by adding a dupatta over them. The saree is an ancient outfit but due to the new draping styles they always tend to look new. I have being draping for the past 6 yrs and have draped a lot during their photo shoots and movies.I help the brides by draping them at there own venues so that they can look their best on the d day. I take care of everything related to saree draping.I carry accessories , extra dupattas ,broches etc when i am doing the draping so that every individual look different and gorgious. Past 6 yrs I have been blending the drapes of two states and bringing out of new trendy and traditional drapes. For me draping is nothing but the art of folds or say the magic of folds when done properly brings out the beauty of the lady.
