Full disclosure: this isn’t always my everyday outfit—but it’s definitely my favorite! I’m your sari guide (though you’ll just as often find me in jeans or trousers). For me, the sari is where heart and heritage meet. I love showing people that these “mysterious” yards of fabric aren’t just for weddings or statues, they’re living, breathing, and surprisingly practical garments. My mission is to take the “scary” out of sari-wearing and help you feel as confident as you do in your favourite wear.

Your teacher
Namaste! I’m Anusha – founder of Reeti Shaala, a space to celebrate the richness of Indian culture through storytelling, traditions, and hands-on experiences. After living in different parts of the world and now calling Melbourne home, I’ve come to deeply value the role culture plays in grounding us and bringing people together. That’s what inspired me to start hosting workshops that connect us back to our roots joyfully and meaningfully. One of my most loved offerings is the Saree Draping Workshop. It’s more than just a class about fashion; it’s a celebration of heritage, identity, and the many ways a saree can be worn with confidence and pride. Growing up in India, I watched my mother and the women in my community drape sarees with such ease and elegance. Over the years, I began experimenting with different draping styles, and soon people started asking me how I did it. That curiosity became a doorway to something deeper—a chance to share this beautiful tradition in an inclusive and creative way. Whether you’re reconnecting with your roots, exploring something new, or getting ready for a festive celebration like Diwali, my classes are designed to make you feel welcome, inspired, and empowered. I’d love to have you join me in rediscovering the beauty of tradition, one pleat, one plate, and one festival at a time. @reetishala
