Saree Pre Pleating
Saree pre-pleating is a service where the saree’s pleats, especially the front pleats and the pallu (the loose end), are folded in advance. This makes wearing the saree easier and faster, as the pleats are already perfectly arranged. Saree pleating services in Hyderabad and Bangalore offer pre-pleating and stitching of sarees, making draping quick and hassle-free. You can also arrange for any measurements to be taken virtually and saree to be picked up and dropped off for convenience
Some options below​
-
Hyderabad: saree_drapist_hyderabad (INR 350 flat rate)
-
Bangalore: bangaloresareedrapist (INR 500 onwards depending on saree fabric)
Transport
