The Whole Nine Yards Story



From the time I gained consciousness of environment from extensive spectrum, believed Saree as a powerful symbol for woman representation in India. With time passing less woman are seen clothed into it. Western outfits have made an inroad to the wardrobe leaving no space, but its spectacle always leaves me bowled. Saree is the most sensuous garment ever and the best thing it conceals as much as it reveals.


The less you wear, more laborious the project seems. In fact size of the Saree has truncated with time from 7-9 yards to 5 ½-6 yards making it easier for the novice. 80 ways of draping Saree has been recorded. There are no set in stone rules take your pleats to the side, over the hip, wear the Palau like dupatta or try double or triple Saree. No reason it should be worn over a petticoat, style it differently over pants, short skirts.


In India nothing identifies a woman as being Indian as the Saree, the quintessential Indian female garment……


Drape it Drape it Drape it till you get it right…..
