The traditional or classical

• The Traditional way This is the most common way
  of wearing the saree. The saree is draped once
  around the waist and pleats are formed and tucked
  in the middle facing left. The remaining cloth is
  slung over the left shoulder to cover the ladys
  torso. Often the pallu.

Bengali style

• Draped without pleats, it is wrapped around the
  waist and drawn back to the right side and the
  pallu is slung over the left shoulder. Once again
  pulled up from under the right arm, it is slung
  over the left shoulder.

Gujarati way

• This way of draping the saree is not only adopted
  in Gujarat but many northern states like UP, MP
  Rajasthan and Bihar also adopt this style. In
  this way of wearing the saree, the pleats face
  right instead of left. The pallu also comes from
  the back to the front from the right side. The
  edge of the pallu is tucked at the back securing
  it properly.

Maharashtra method

  older and more conservative women. The saree apes
  a dhoti style somewhat, with some of the fabric
  tucked between the legs to divide them.

• his version too uses a saree that is 9 yards as
  opposed to the simple 6 yards version. Once again
  worn without a petticoat inside, this saree uses
  multiple tuck and complicated pleats to form a
  saree

  traditional way, with the end of the pallu
  covering the bosom. In the front, they have skirt
  pleats and the pallu is draped around the
  shoulders and over the chest, to demurely cover
  the bust.
