Marco Polo, the premium modern casual wear brand inspired by the legendary explorer, has officially launched its flagship store at One Galle Face (OGF) Mall, Level 2, Shop No. 27.

The opening marks a significant milestone for the brand, introducing Sri Lankan consumers to a refined fashion experience rooted in exploration, craftsmanship, and timeless style.

Known for its high-quality fabrics, meticulous craftsmanship, and elegant details, Marco Polo draws inspiration from the legacy of Marco Polo himself. The brand celebrates the spirit of discovery and cultural connection between East and West. It blends global fashion sensibilities with contemporary casualwear, designed for modern individuals who value comfort and sophistication.

The flagship store has been designed around a nautical lifestyle concept, creating a space that embodies sophistication, elegance, and ease of use. Each collection features premium cotton and luxury pima cotton fabrics, elevated textures, and clean silhouettes, offering customers a wardrobe of versatile and timeless staples.

Marco Polo Founder Saad Subian shared: “Marco Polo was born from a passion for exploration and the idea that fashion should be both timeless and experiential. With this flagship debut at OGF Mall, we introduce a brand that embodies sophistication, comfort, and global inspiration. Our vision is to create not just clothing, but a lifestyle where every piece carries the spirit of discovery, and every customer becomes part of the journey.”

Brand Spokesperson Dr. S.H.M. Faraaz added: “At Marco Polo, every detail tells a story — from silhouettes inspired by global influences to cuts that ensure comfort without compromising style. Today, we proudly present the Marco Polo collection to Sri Lanka for the first time.”

Chief Designer Sajith emphasised that the debut collection represents months of research and thoughtful design, ensuring the highest standards of quality and wearability.
