Choose a dhoti and a matching dupatta
Hold the dhoti at the waist and wrap it around your body
Tuck one end of the dhoti securely at the front waist
Bring the remaining fabric between the legs
Fold and tuck the fabric neatly at the back or side waist
Adjust the dhoti so it sits comfortably and evenly
Drape the dupatta over one shoulder
Bring the dupatta across the front of the body
Let the other end fall over the opposite shoulder or arm
Pin the dupatta in place if needed
Smooth out any folds and adjust the fit
Check that the dhoti and dupatta are secure and balanced
