Saree to Gown
Flowing floor-length gowns from silk, georgette or chiffon sarees — perfect for receptions and parties.
Alterations & Refitting
Your saree,
reborn as a gown.
The dress that no longer fits, the outfit that's almost right, the piece you love but never wear — an expert alteration can bring it back. We refit and restyle with a tailor's eye for proportion.
Don't Replace — Refit
A new life for a saree you love
Some of the best pieces in your wardrobe are the ones that no longer quite fit — an outfit from a few years ago, a gift in the wrong size, something that pinches in one place and gapes in another. Replacing them is expensive and wasteful. Refitting them is often the smarter move.
At Masterdaa, alterations aren't an afterthought — they're real tailoring. We resize, restyle and fit-correct with the same eye for proportion we bring to a new garment. A good alteration is invisible: the piece simply fits you now, as if it always did.
From a simple resize to reworking a garment's whole silhouette, bring us what you own and we'll tell you honestly what's possible.

Good to Know
Your questions, answered
Can any saree be converted into a dress or gown?
Most sarees can be converted — silk, georgette, chiffon and crepe work especially well for gowns and Anarkalis, while heavier Banarasi and Kanjivaram sarees are ideal for lehengas. We assess each saree honestly and tell you the best options for its fabric and condition before starting.
How much does it cost to convert a saree into a gown or lehenga in Kolkata?
Cost depends on the design, the fabric and the amount of construction involved, so we quote after seeing the saree and understanding what you want. Book a home visit or studio appointment and we'll give you a clear estimate — there's no fixed price list because every conversion is different.
How long does a saree-to-dress conversion take?
A typical conversion takes about 2 to 3 weeks depending on the complexity and the number of fittings. Bridal or heavily embellished pieces may take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline when you confirm the design.
Will you damage my saree or lose the embroidery?
No — we handle heirloom and embellished sarees with great care, working around zari, embroidery and borders to preserve what makes the saree special. We plan the cut so the original work becomes a feature of the new garment.
Can you convert my mother's or grandmother's old saree?
Yes, this is one of our favourite things to do. We restore and reimagine heirloom sarees into something wearable today while honouring the original piece — a modern outfit that still carries the memory.
Do you offer home pickup for saree conversion in Kolkata?
Yes. We offer home visits across Kolkata with a location-based visiting charge, so we can see the saree, take measurements and discuss the design without you travelling. A nominal area charge may apply below that.
