Styles of Saree Draping
The most common style is for the sari to be wrapped around the waist, with the loose end of the drape worn over the shoulder, baring the stomach. However, the sari can be draped in several different styles, though some styles do require a sari of a particular length or form. The French cultural anthropologist and sari researcher, Chantal Boulanger, categorizes sari drapes in the following families. Different parts of India have different styles of draping the sari.
Nivi style Bengali and Oriya style Gujarati style Maharashtrian/Kache style Dravidian style Madisaara style Kodagu style Gond style The two-piece sari style Tribal styles
