1. Wrapping around Body
Start with choosing a designer Indian Saree. Tuck the plain end just below your navel (belly button), into the petticoat and wrap the sari around your waist till the saree takes a complete turn. Adjust the lower end according to the height you want. A little tip- wear your footwear while draping a sari to adjust the correct length.
2. Making Pleats
Make clean 6-10 pleats with the sari in the front. The number of the pleats depends on the length of the pallu or the palla. Hold these pleats together and tuck them into your petticoat neatly to the left of belly button or navel.
3. Making Pallu or Palla
After the pleats are made, put the saree on your shoulder from back to front (Sidhi Palla) or front to back (Ulti Palla). The young ladies love draping the saree as Ulti Palla. But wearing the Indian wedding sarees or Designer Indian Bridal sarees as Sidhi Palla is advisable. The Sidhi Palla shows the designs of the pallu really well. While making the pallu, also make pleats on the shoulder. The pallu has a tendency to fall off often. So in order to prevent it falling off, you should never forget to pin them with your blouse on the shoulder.
These steps are use in wearing Indian Sarees in Nivi Style. These three steps can be very helpful to a woman who is draping a designer Indian Saree first time. Some other different styles are there to wear the Indian saris like the Bengali style, Gujarati style, Maharashtra style, Gond style, etc.
