How to Tie a Sari - Part 4

Take a look at how to properly tie a Sari, a common garment for Indian women.

Now that you put over you shoulder, you may find at the materials a little twisted over all you have to do is go around from the back, the leftover material that you had and make sure that it is facing upwards lengthwise. So let your material just flowing like this. The last step now, you are going to take all the extra material that you have and you are going to start folding it from right here. So, you can make more pleats basically. Now keep making all the pleats until you reach the end of the material, you have nothing leftover. Now once you have done this, you are going to take all this and just tuck it in right in the middle of your skirt. So you just fold it in like that, make sure it is folded in behind you because you are going to have some extra material leftover so you just put it in. And now once you put in the pleats, you want to make sure it does reach the floor so the pleats look good. Lastly, at least you want to make sure that this part that you cover your shoulder is done appropriately. After you fold, it in into your skirts sometimes is not right, so you are just going to go over. Make sure that the edge is not facing this way. Usually, you want to fold it in a little bit. So you just go like that, put it over your shoulder and you want to make sure that you have your safety pin. If you are not used to ring size, it could be really useful for you to put the safety pin in here, put it through your blouse or t-shirt whatever you are wearing and through this part of the side and there you go. You got your sari on, no problem.
