Petticoat
Find a petticoat that matches the colour of your saree exactly. If it’s ligher, your saree will also look a shade lighter. The same applies to a darker petticoat.

Hold all the pleats together and tuck them into the petticoat(make sure the length of the saree remain the same and the them is even safety pin the pleats to your petticoat).
Bring Around
Bring the saree around your body. Hold it in your right hand and pass over the left making sure the border is even.
