The designer collaborated with students from the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) for a collection titled 'From Belgium to India with Love'.
 
Consul General Peter Huyghebaert said in a statement, "For the Belgian Consulate, it is important to showcase different aspects of Belgium to our Indian friends - be it our fashion, our music or our food. It was wonderful to see the best of Belgian fashion, with an Indian twist."

Lespagnard added, "It has been a lovely and wonderful experience coming to India and working together with the students of NIFT, Mumbai. In only two weeks of time and through hard work, the Indian students brought a fabulous collection inspired by my own collection and adding an Indian touch to it. The response from the Indian audience was fantastic and I look forward to coming here soon again."
 
As part of the celebrations, an informal 'Master Class' by the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp, was also organised at NIFT, Mumbai.
