Coiled Saree Drape

Coiled style drape is most commonly known as Mumtaz style. In this form saree is worn like a coil. Yesteryears bollywood diva Mumtaz popularized it when she draped a orange saree in this innovative style for song "Ajkal tere mere pyar ke charche".  Since then this style is very popular and has never been out of fashion. Actoress Priyanka Chopra was also seen in same style in movie " Teri Meri Kahani".

In this style only two or three pleats are made facing left and rest of saree is wrapped around  the lower body. Each wrap is kept 4-5 inches above the last wrap. And pallu is secured on left shoulder making narrow pleats.

This style perfectly suits you if you are slim and has a curvy figure. This is not a very comfortable style in terms of walk as saree is coiled two three times around lower body giving it a tight fitting but perfect for parties and occasions.
