Drapery

Whatever the language, the discernment of a sari transcends borders and time. The stories our mothers, grandmothers, aunts and countless other women weave when they drape this unstitched fabric are striking. Generations of narratives are woven into a sari and the quintessence of Drapery lies in the heart of these moments.

Drapery is a design house that pays homage to this humble fabric that assumes traditions and modernity, adds elegance and spirit, and relays countless stories. We, at Drapery, believe in novelty and our products with its pronounced designs on bold fabrics stand testament to this. The foundations of our artistry characterize the timeless style, culture and significance of a sari.

This novelty extends to our methodology and production too and here at Drapery, we believe in upskilling weavers. Our weavers are well versed with cutting edge technologies and are redefining the craft- lending our saris a nonpareil purity and style.

We talk to heritage and modernity at the same time. We are the modern retelling of the classics. We are a collective that believes in representing the aura of the strong, free-spirited and pioneering women. We weave our own creations for you and the countless stories you will create and pass down.

What seems like a long piece of unstitched fabric, is in actuality, a result of hours and hours of thought and skill working hand in hand.

Once the raw materials are assembled, it takes anywhere between 10 - 15 days to weave a Kanchipuram sari. Before implementation, all our designs are tested and only after it is successful, the design is contrived.

We are equipped with state-of-the-art looms that places emphasis on weaving efficiency. This makes it easier for the weaver to execute new designs and unattainable patterns otherwise, on to the silk.

Our machinery, while consisting of fine weaving practices, exclusively manufacture saris for Drapery. We also nurture and train each one of our weavers to handle the machinery. Each of our looms requires 2 weavers to operate it for high efficiency.
