About The Event
Like Bill Waterson-Calvin’s SpaceMan Spiff, if you too nurture an alter ego of becoming a sari storyteller, attend this session. It discusses tips and techniques to refine your sari styling and fashion storytelling. Okay, it does not promise to turn you into a chic sensation overnight, but it can make you mindful of telling your sari style story by managing your fashion image for the world. You can apply the learning to daily life. NOTE: The workshop is for a limited number of participants. We request you to register accordingly. Please carry a sari you love or dislike, your fave journal, and a pen.
