For Indian ethnic wear

Photograph
the garment.
Not a guess at it.

Load the pallu, the body, the border and the blouse as separate labelled shots. Tantu renders a model wearing that saree — your motif, at your scale, not a pattern that merely rhymes with it.

Nine poses from one set of photographs · Every render kept and re-runnable · A failed render is not charged

What goes in

Four shots, each one named.

Every other tool takes one flat photograph and lets the model guess at the rest. The pallu, the pleats and the border are folded away in that photograph — so they get invented. Name each shot and there is nothing left to invent.

What comes out

A pose set, carrying the same cloth.

One image per pose, all rendered from those same photographs and streamed back as each one finishes. The body moves; the garment does not change.

On a hand-painted saree,
the motif is the product.

A saree is not a garment you put on a body. It is five and a half metres of cloth, pleated, tucked and thrown in a particular order, and most of it is folded out of sight in any photograph of it lying flat.

So a model asked to work from one flat photograph invents the pallu, invents the pleats, and invents a border that looks roughly like yours. It is convincing until it arrives, and in Indian ethnic-wear ecommerce a quarter to two-fifths of everything sold already comes back.

Tantu is built so the print survives the process — and so you can check that it did, against the real cloth, before anything goes on a storefront.

Three ways to wear it

Whether or not you have a model, a mannequin, or anything but the cloth.

01

Describe a model

No model photograph at all. Say who should wear it — or say nothing and take the default — and the model is invented around your garment.

02

Mannequin to model

Drape it on a mannequin and photograph it. Only the mannequin is replaced. The pleats, the border placement and the fall stay physically real.

03

Try on a person

A photograph of a person, and the garment goes onto them with their face, build and skin tone preserved.

Cost

₹200–500 an image, and three days of waiting.

That is what a studio shoot costs. This is ₹6.0 an image at volume and about a minute for a full pose set — but the reason to do it is that you can re-shoot a colourway on a Tuesday afternoon without booking anybody.

Bring one saree and four photographs.

You will know inside two minutes whether it holds your motif. That is the only question worth asking of any tool in this category, and it is the one nobody else lets you answer.
