Nivi is a drape skirt saree constructed in fluid silk satin and designed to translate the structure of a traditional saree into a tailored garment. The piece is cut as a skirt with a concealed zipper at the back, allowing it to be worn easily while maintaining a clean silhouette. The front construction replicates the pleats and fall of a saree, creating the appearance of a saree drape across the body.
 The name refers to the Nivi style of saree draping, the most widely worn drape in India, where pleats fall at the front and the pallu wraps across the body. In this piece, those elements are translated into a structured garment so the drape is built directly into the form. The silk satin enhances the fluidity of the pleats and gives the surface a soft sheen, allowing the garment to move with the body while maintaining the clarity of the draped structure.

The result is a piece that carries the visual language of a saree while offering the ease and stability of a skirt.
