Draping Styles for Durga Puja Sarees

The drape of your Bengali Durga Puja saree can be tuned for comfort or drama, depending on the day.

• Classic Bengali pleated drape: This drape features neat front pleats, a wide pallu thrown from back to front, and a key pleat pinned on the shoulder. It frames the torso, keeps the pallu prominent, and suits cotton, linen, jamdani, and light silk. Add a key ring or keys at the pallu end if you want a nostalgic nod to vintage puja style.
