Bridal
Retro Mermaid
Weddings · Reception · Engagement · Sangeet · Bridesmaids
This is the drape I reach for when a bride wants to feel like herself — confident, a little glamorous, fully in her body. The mermaid silhouette does something to a room. She walks in and people stop. It's also the drape I recommend when the blouse itself deserves its own moment — heavily beaded or richly embroidered — because the fitted silhouette keeps every detail on display instead of tucking it away.
The Retro Mermaid is a contemporary bridal drape that draws from vintage Indian film glamour — close-fitted through the hip and flaring toward the hem, with the pallu styled to cascade dramatically over one shoulder. It works beautifully with sarees of any fabric, and is a favourite for weddings, receptions and pre-wedding shoots where the bride wants a silhouette that photographs from every angle. Paired with a veil, it becomes the perfect choice for a bride leaning into a fusion, Western-inspired bridal look.
Complimentary Trial Drape
Every bride gets a complimentary trial run before her big day — she chooses her pleat count, the width of each pleat, and whether she prefers a fuller, puffier finish or a clean, flat one, so Smitha drapes it exactly to her preference.
