Saree School Lesson 22 - Walking up or down stairs in a Saree

 

Wearing a saree is a beautiful experience, but navigating stairs can be a bit tricky. Here’s a simple guide to help you glide down the stairs with grace and confidence.

1. Hold Your Pallu: Gently gather your pallu in your hand, keeping it close to your body. This not only looks elegant but also ensures you don’t step on it.

2. Lift the Hem: Grab your front pleats and slightly lift the hem of your saree with your other hand. This gives you a clear view of the steps and prevents tripping.

3. Take Small Steps: Walk down the stairs slowly, taking small, careful steps. This helps you maintain balance and control.

Saree School Lesson 18 - Fold forward and tuck.

If you have enough saree left over to create another pleat always create another pleat but if it’s not enough, then create a micro pleat at the right hip.

Folding forward ensures that the first pleat in the middle doesn’t open up and stray from the other pleats.

Saree School Lesson 11 - How to preserve your lace sarees.

Feed a band-aid, button, or piece of paper through the safety pin before pinning your saree. I used white paper here so that it is easy to see in the video but would recommend using a similar colour to the saree.
