Do the pleats stay sharp on a ready-to-wear saree?
They hold better than hand-set pleats, because they are built into the garment rather than folded and pinned each time. Crepe satin silk helps here too, since the fabric has enough weight to keep the folds hanging down instead of springing open through an evening.
Can this saree be worn as a regular saree instead?
No. Once pleating is stitched into the garment, the drape is fixed in that arrangement and cannot be opened out and re-draped in a different style. If you want the flexibility of styling the pallu differently, an ordinary saree is the better choice.
What blouse size comes with it?
Blouse measurements are not published on this listing, though the blouse is supplied stitched. That combination is worth resolving before ordering, because a ready-made blouse offers limited alteration and there is no fabric length to take to a tailor instead.
Does the crepe texture show through the pink?
Yes, and that is part of the appeal. Crepe's fine crinkled surface breaks light into small points rather than broad sweeps, so a mid-tone pink reads with depth and movement rather than as a single flat panel of colour across the drape.
