Event Description : EXHIBITION "From Haute Couture to the Technologies of Elegance : Inside the world of Lecoanet Hemant"

Lecoanet Hemant, a French Haute Couture House ceased its activity in Paris in March 2000, in order to move into a totally new business of Ready to Wear in India.

From 1984-2000, Lecoanet Hemant were members of the Parisian Haute Couture Syndicate during which they created 33 Collections. 

The move was aimed at transitioning from Artisanal to Semi-Industrial, which led to the set-up of a manufacturing house that would develop ancestral Haute Couture craft practices into contemporary industrial products. This forms the essence and theme of the upcoming exhibition.

The uniquely curated exhibition will endeavour to demonstrate the intrinsic research that goes into developing designs by hand and how the same concept can and has been re-developed to become an exceptional commercial product.

The exhibition highlights the Designers creative work, their legacy and their instrumental efforts, by contributing to place India on the Global Fashion Map. On display at the exhibition there will be approximately 30 to 40 creations; half were made in Paris (1984-2000) and the other half at their Gurgaon Atelier (2000-2017).
