Abstract

An adjustable, ready to wear garment that provides the appearance of the traditional sari without the complex assembly process; composed of a garment that includes a sari skirt or bottom with adjustable waistband, attached petticoat and uniformly sized pre-formed pleats. The waistband includes adjustment mechanisms, such as elastic, hooks and eyes, to adjust the tightness of the bottom according to the girth of a user, while the petticoat may include an open portion for further adjustment. The pre-fabricated pleats on the garment bottom do not require intricate folding and will not fall out, loosen, or require pinning. The included petticoat or undergarment is attached to the interior of the garment bottom. The waistband helps supports the weight of the bottom and maintain its placement at the user's waist. The regular waistband may be replaced with an expandable waistband or belly panel to accommodate changes in midsection girth for maternity users.
