Highlights

You don't just get to know practical instructions to drap a saree. But you would be given insights on the history of the saree, different draping styles, how certain draping style is linked to a particular class of society, some styling is specific to geographical location, and stories of accessories too. At the end of the session, you will be able to tie the saree all by yourself and carry yourself with grace and confidence. We also offer welcome drinks such as warm black tea cool buttermilk or refreshing lime juice depending on your choice. You would get to choose accessories to match your saree. A saree manual will be emailed for future reference. A wide variety of sarees is available for you to select and practice, and most importantly to take some amazing pictures.

About Pondicherry

Pondicherry, also called Puducherry, is a former French colony on the Bay of Bengal, with a seafront promenade, yellow villas and Auroville nearby.

Pondicherry, renamed Puducherry in 2006, lies on the Coromandel Coast of south-east India and was ruled by France until the 1950s. Its French Quarter, known as White Town, has a grid of tree-lined streets with ochre and pale-yellow colonial villas hung with bougainvillea, and a promenade along the sea where a statue of Gandhi stands. The Sacred Heart Basilica and the Immaculate Conception Cathedral give the quarter a skyline of church towers.

Top-ranked sights in Pondicherry: Arulmigu Manakula Vinayagar Temple.
