Colombo. Tuesday 02 November 2021. Envoy London, the iconic fashion brand, has been enjoying great success among the elite shoppers of Kensington High Street in London, ever since it opened its doors in the thick of the Covid-19 pandemic, in April 2020.
The story began two decades ago when former England cricket captain and celebrated commentator Tony Greg became the first ever Brand Ambassador for Envoy London.
Years down the line, in 2015, the story took a modern day spin when Sri Lankan fashion guru Fouzul Hameed’s piece-de-resistance men’s fashion brand ‘Envoy London’ became the brand of choice for the prestigious Mr. England competition that year.
