Level 03 at the KCC has been unofficially branded as the 'floor for
fashion and accessories' and draws hundreds of customers at all times of
the day.
Says Fouzul Hameed, "The first Planet Fashion opened its doors at the
Race Course Promenade in October last year and has seen record sales
ever since.
Planet Fashion brings the world's leading men's clothing brands under
one roof and is now proud to open its doors at the Kandy City Centre,
the happening place in the hill capital".
Planet Fashion brings the best of world couture to the Sri Lankan
public. Among the world's top-end brands which grace its shelves are
names such as Louis Philippe, Van Heusen, Allen Solly and Peter England.
"Kandy is today a strategic shopping location and serves many key
towns in the surrounding areas.
For many years, Kandy's fashion conscious customers have been
deprived of genuine branded and original clothing from reputed brands,
both nationally and internationally.
Planet Fashion seamlessly fills this void", Hameed added.
Today, 'Planet Fashion' is Sri Lanka's only multi-branded shop for
men.
Joining Hameedia in this win-win venture is Madura Fashion and
Lifestyle, a division of Aditya Birla Nuvo Ltd, one of India's fastest
growing branded apparel companies and a premium lifestyle player in the
retail sector.
Louis Philippe has been a statement of status and style for powerful
men. Louis Philippe establishes, beyond a shadow of doubt, that its
wearer is a man of infallible taste and class. The best-selling dress
shirt brand in the world, Van Heusen has grown into a 24/7 lifestyle
brand known for its fit, fabric, finish and innovative fashion - at a
fraction of the cost of luxury brands.
Allen Solly redefined the way the urban Indian dressed to work.
Setting the trend for the changing workplace, Allen Solly infused
vibrant colours and broke the mould of the typical work wear with its
'Friday Dressing'.
Peter England is India's most loved menswear brand.
It presents a crisp range of formal shirts for today's fashion
conscious male with an impeccable taste, looking to make great
impressions at work every day.
"All brands at Planet Fashion are available exclusively with Hameedia
and their authorised dealers island wide", said Senior Brand Manager
Rizwan Mahmooth. "The response we've had from Colombo's public, both Sri
Lankans and expatriates, has been incredible, inspiring us to popularise
this concept in key capitals around the country and thus bring the same
shopping experience to our fellow citizens all across Sri Lanka".
