IFCCI's Luxury Committee organised a Cocktail Reception, on the sidelines of its first ever Luxury Symposium and during the visit of the Comité Colbert to India, on 29th November 2023 at the Residence of France in New Delhi. The reception followed the grand success of the Luxury Symposium.
The team at IFCCI extends heartfelt gratitude to H.E. Mr. Thierry MATHOU, the Ambassador of France to India and Mrs. Cécile MATHOU for graciously hosting the reception.
Ms. Bénédicte Epinay, President & CEO, Comité Colbert and Mr. Alain Proust, the Secretary General, Comité Colbert graced the occasion.
This is a milestone achievement for IFCCI as it is the first time that Comité Colbert has engaged with a French Chamber abroad and the Symposium has indeed put India on the map highlighting the 'India Moment' and the growing potential of India's luxury market.
The evening witnessed the presence of leading luxury brands in India, Indian designers, global influencers and eminent personalities from India and France, who gathered for this pioneering moment celebrating the collaborative journey between the two countries and the unique craftsmanship and heritage belonging to both the countries.
One of the highlights of the event was the display of the stunning and timeless collection by couture house Lecoanet Hemant, which is a perfect example of the Indo-French fashion partnership between designers Hemant Sagar and Didier Lecoanet that was established in 1981.
The IFCCI Luxury Committee is led by a dynamic team of leaders bringing in a wealth of experience in the luxury segment: Payal S. Kanwar, Director General, IFCCI; Srimoyi Bhattacharya, Chairperson, IFCCI Luxury Committee & Founder, Peepul Advisory, Swagata Bottero, Vice Chairperson, IFCCI Luxury Committee & India Affairs & Strategy Director, Cartier and Abhijit Patel, Vice Chairperson, IFCCI Luxury Committee & Retail Director India, Hermes.
