Which drape style suits a chiffon saree best?
Almost any of them, because the fabric is light enough not to bulk at the pleats. The standard nivi drape is the default. A seedha pallu, pinned flat across the front, displays a bordered saree better, and elaborate Bengali or Gujarati styles work here where a heavy silk would not.
How do I show off the zari border when draping?
A seedha pallu is the most effective, since it carries the border across the front of the body where it is visible rather than hanging behind the shoulder. Pleating the fall so the border stacks in a repeated line is the other common way to make it read.
Does chiffon suit elaborate drape styles?
It suits them better than heavier fabrics do. Complex drapes involve many folds, and a thick cloth turns those folds into bulk at the waist. Chiffon is fine enough that even a multi-layered style stays flat, which is why it is a common choice for experimenting.
Should the pallu be pleated or left open?
Either works on a light saree. An open pallu shows the print across a wider area and moves as you walk. A pleated, pinned pallu stays controlled and presents the zari border as a repeated vertical line, which is generally the tidier option for a long evening.
