The participating brands are Hermes, Fauchon, Baccarat, Bernardaud, Boucheron, Maison Veuve Clicquot, Christofle, Goyard and S.T. Dupont. These nine French luxury brands created an exclusive product paying tribute to the crocodile, an international icon of Lacoste, said a statement.

The brand that was launched in the year 1933, marked its entry in India in 1993. Keeping the Indian customers in mind, Lacoste also created the world's first pique Kurta, available exclusively in India.
