A Saree Draping Workshop was conducted for aspiring fashionistas at Gujranwala Guru Nanak Institute of Management & Technology (GGNIMT), Ghumar Mandi. Prof. Gurleen Kaur, Head Department of Fashion Design conducted this workshop for the female students of the institution. More than 50 female students from different departments like Business Management, Computer Applications, Hotel Management and Fashion Design keenly participated in this workshop. During this workshop Prof. Gurleen provided a live demonstration, showcasing a quick and easy method for draping a saree which was adopted by the students.
Participants were encouraged to experiment with both traditional and contemporary styles of draping a saree. Though most students had never draped a Saree prior to this workshop, by the end of the session, they all managed to drape their sarees elegantly. A fourth-semester student, Zofisha, elegantly wore a gorgeous Bandhani saree made of silk and expressed that this workshop had enabled her to drape sarees made from different fabrics, and this novel experience would always be cherished by her. Niharika, a sixth semester student felt that though she was always fascinated by the magic of a Saree as a style statement, this workshop not only enabled her to drape a saree with elegance but also sensitized her about different styles and how these could be adopted to suit the occasion, body type of the wearer and the fabric of the saree.
