Moose Clothing Company has recently opened its third exclusive store at Galle City Centre, marking another significant milestone in the brand’s ongoing retail expansion across Sri Lanka. The new outlet introduces Moose’s signature blend of style, quality, and affordability to customers in the Southern region, further strengthening its vision of making fashion more accessible and inclusive.
Building on its strong presence in Colombo and Kandy, the Galle store represents the next chapter in Moose’s island-wide growth. Since its launch in 2018, the brand has built a solid reputation for offering durable, well-crafted apparel at accessible price points—an achievement further recognized with its Superbrand status in 2026.
Designed to capture the relaxed charm and cultural richness of Galle, the new store offers a more immersive shopping experience compared to traditional retail spaces. Drawing inspiration from the coastal lifestyle, the outlet combines modern retail design with subtle local elements, creating an environment that feels both aspirational and familiar. The store also introduces a comprehensive lifestyle offering under one roof, featuring menswear, womenswear, kidswear, and official cricket merchandise—making it a convenient destination for families, young adults, and tourists alike.
Commenting on the expansion, Hasib Omar, Chief Executive Officer of Moose Clothing Company, stated, “Our vision has always been to make high-quality fashion accessible to more Sri Lankans without compromising on style or durability. Expanding into Galle is a natural step as we continue to grow alongside our customers. We wanted this store to reflect the spirit of the city—its culture, energy, and lifestyle—while delivering the trusted Moose experience.”
Strategically located within one of the South’s leading retail hubs, the store is well-positioned to attract both local shoppers and international visitors. Its presence at Galle City Centre ensures ease of access while reinforcing Moose as a go-to destination for affordable and stylish fashion in the region.
With this latest addition, Moose Clothing Company continues to redefine perceptions of affordable fashion, demonstrating that quality, style, and value can go hand in hand. The brand’s expansion beyond Colombo and Kandy highlights its commitment to reaching communities across the island, bringing thoughtfully designed everyday fashion closer to home.
CFW, in collaboration with the BRICS Fashion Summit, presents the South Asian Edition in Colombo
The BRICS International Fashion Federation, in collaboration with Colombo Fashion Week (CFW), presents the first South Asian Edition of the BRICS Fashion Summit in Colombo.
Sri Lanka has been selected as the host nation due to its strategic geo-political location, with Colombo Fashion Week’s standing as a founding member of the BRICS International Fashion Federation further reinforcing this decision. The country’s position as a bridge between South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the wider Indian Ocean region highlights the Federation’s commitment to strengthening its presence across some of the world’s most dynamic emerging markets.
Since its inception, the BRICS International Fashion Federation has played a key role in connecting fashion ecosystems across rapidly growing economies. By bringing together creative communities, policymakers, and industry leaders under a shared vision, the Federation has established a collaborative framework that transcends borders and creates opportunities for designers, manufacturers, and fashion entrepreneurs across member nations.
As a founding member, Colombo Fashion Week has been instrumental in bridging Sri Lanka’s diverse fashion landscape and fostering regional creative dialogue across South Asia. Now in its 23rd year, CFW remains one of only four fashion weeks in South Asia to have surpassed two decades of continuity. This South Asian Edition marks another important milestone in its journey as it continues to strengthen its position as a leading regional and international fashion platform.
The BRICS Fashion Summit will be held during Colombo Fashion Week on April 3rd at 11:00 AM at City of Dreams Sri Lanka. The event will bring together global fashion leaders, industry experts, and creative entrepreneurs for high-level discussions exploring the intersection of fashion, culture, and commerce within emerging economies.
The panel will be moderated by Shamindra Kulamannage, Editor of Echelon and Economy Next. He will be joined by a distinguished lineup of speakers including Alexander Shumsky, President of the Russian Fashion Council and board member of the BRICS International Fashion Federation; Rajesh Pratap Singh, one of India’s most acclaimed designers; Kuan Kevin Feng, representing Beijing Fashion Week; Hasitha Premaratne of Brandix Group; and Rizwan Beyg, renowned for his work in craft revival and South Asian textile heritage.
The discussion will explore whether the BRICS bloc can unlock meaningful opportunities for designers and apparel supply chains, how cultural heritage can be leveraged to enhance global fashion relevance, and the evolving role of South Asia within the broader BRICS creative and commercial ecosystem. The summit is expected to be a defining moment in positioning Colombo and the region at the centre of a growing global fashion dialogue.
CFW Summer ’26, presented by Mastercard, will take place from April 1–4 at City of Dreams Sri Lanka in Colombo. The BRICS Federation’s designer exchange programme continues this year, creating new international pathways for Sri Lankan talent. This edition also marks the debut participation of designers from South Africa and China on a Sri Lankan runway.
Featuring over 30 designers, the showcase brings together international participants from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, and China alongside leading Sri Lankan designers, making it one of the most globally diverse editions in the platform’s history. The CFW Emerging Designer initiative remains a key pillar of the platform, supporting the next generation of designers through structured mentorship, with eleven emerging designers set to present their collections this season.
