Genes Lecoanet Hemant Launches SS’25 Collection

The Genes Spring Summer 25 collection titled ‘Dreams’ is an unconventional approach to casual wear New Delhi, March 7, 2025 – Genes Lecoanet Hemant, the premium ready-to-wear designer label founded by Indo-French couturiers Didier Lecoanet and Hemant Sagar, introduces its Spring Summer 2025 collection, ‘Dreams’ inspired by Akira Kurosawa’s movie with the same name. With over 180 styles, the collection is an imaginative exploration of diverse silhouettes, prints, & colour palettes that redefine everyday fashion.

Hemant Sagar, Co-founder of Genes Lecoanet Hemant expressed “Fashion is more than just clothing—it’s an experience, a perspective shift. Every detail is meaningful, carrying emotion and nudging to look at the ordinary in an extraordinary way. ‘Dreams’ ultimately becomes a collection of clothes that are expressive and optimistic. Full of wonder and imaginative details but still successfully contributing to everyday living.” "Eccentricity is often misunderstood, and this season, we wanted to explore it more deeply," adds artistic director & co-founder Didier Lecoanet . “The clothes challenge existing norms and invite people to express themselves boldly, to see beauty in the unusual and to feel empowered by it. Here, craft meets practicality in silhouettes that have a point of view”.

The collection is a visual spectacle with vibrant surface design and playful silhouettes without surrendering the tactile sumptuousness of clothing. These are fabrics to live life in, meticulously picked and cut for comfort and longevity. An Anemone print is a hazy interpretation of larger than life flowers - a subtle nod to the talking flowers in Lewis Caroll’s Alice in Wonderland. A distorted garden print is like a moment stolen from a dream, vague and striking all at once. A palette of refreshing hues, all intuitively paired together achieves that sort of inexplicable quality that childhood dreams are made of. A crisp naivety and innocence as an antidote to the times we live in.

For women, silhouettes are relaxed yet striking—layered slip dresses over t-shirt structures, breezy kaftans with shoelace-inspired tie-ups, linen jumpsuits, with corsetry strings at the back. Three dimensional embroideries, iridescent sequinned flowers and playing card motifs are all evidence of the Lecoanet Hemant couture heritage.

Menswear, too, embraces a sense of playfulness. Graffiti mosaics of one-liners and sketchy rabbit motifs bring life to jersey tees and sleeveless vests, while cotton pique polos, twill shorts, and poplin chessboard shirts balance structure with whimsy. The Labyrinth print, graces Giza cotton shirts in Nile green and sky blue. Ruffle details subtly challenge traditional menswear norms, proving that imagination has no boundaries.

‘Dreams’ by Genes Lecoanet Hemant is an invitation to step outside the constraints of reality and embrace the fantastical. Designed for those who dare to dream beyond convention, this collection brings imagination to life, one garment at a time. Genes Lecoanet Hemant currently has 5 stores in India across Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai.
