Today, enriched by this hybrid heritage, the Genes Lecoanet Hemant brand asserts an elegant style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTheir story is told in two parts: after having embodied the \"Orientalists\" in Paris for two decades, these two designers became the \"Parisians\" of India for the following two decades. Thus, this book traces the singular journey of this duo. Since their entry into haute couture, Lecoanet Hemant has known how to \"break in,\" as the newspaper Le Monde titled it in 1984. Indeed, without an ounce of violence and with a ton of audacity, they go where no one expects them. Paris did not expect them, nor India. Through a collection of photographs, sketches, testimonies, and quotes, this beautiful book offers a chronology of a double journey taking place in Paris and then in Delhi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e The book gives pride of place to signature photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFrom Dominique Issermann to Patrick Demarchelier, including David Seidner, Patrick Trautwein, Arthur Elgort, Jeff Dunas, Jean-Daniel Lorieux, etc., these images, mainly published in the fashion press of the time, from Vogue Paris to Harper's Bazaar, including L'Officiel and Joyce, nourish this element of dream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e A series of photographs taken recently in India demonstrates the modernity of 1980s haute couture silhouettes.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e and 1990.
