Fashion in a hurry
Fashion boutiques are opening up all over the city and suburbs offering a choice selection of clothing. True Blue at 221/3 Dharmapala Mawatha, Colombo 7 was the latest to open its doors late last month.
Aimed at trendy women looking for something different to wear, who don’t have a lot of time to spend browsing through stores, True Blue offers many Australian high street brands as well as other international brands such as ZU, ALDO, Forever New, 9 wears, Pilgrims, 73, etc
“Fashion is my hobby,” says entrepreneur, Marlee Abeysekera who had spent years in Australia but says coming back she saw that there wasn’t anywhere that one could go and shop in a hurry and be happy with what you got. With that came the idea to open this shop.
“We mostly cater to a customer group of women in the age of 18 to 45 and we offer casual wear, party wear, handbags, and shoes from slippers to trendy heels. Everything is branded. It’s also a shop for mums who want to look hip and trendy,” Marlee said.
