The CFW Summer 2026 Edition took place from April 1 to April 4, 2026, at the Cinnamon Life City of Dreams in Colombo. Over 30 local and international designers showcased their work during this premier fashion event. As usual, many high profile brands partnered with the event to make it a success. Among these brands, Polar Sun was heavily recognised as a prominent eyewear brand at the CFW event. This brand was promoted under the portfolio of the official eyewear partner for the event, Vision Care.
The major eyewear retailer promoted this niche sunglass brand alongside global luxury brands like Prada, Ray-Ban, and Gucci, and even some local rivals as well. Still, the brand managed to stand out and establish a strong niche at CFW 2026. Polar Sun’s CFW Edit or the CFW Summer ‘26 collection was a clear highlight of the event and was quick to grab the attention of many designers and attendees of the event. The collection featured a variety of runway-ready styles, with the Royce Yellow, the Vera Burgundy, and the Adele Tortoise receiving significant attention.
This strong impact was also the result of strategic partnerships and designer collaborations, which powered the brand’s appeal on such a scale. The performance of the models, which was highly praised by the attendees and designers, made a huge contribution in portraying the real potential of the collection.
Polar Sun was introduced as a featured homegrown eyewear brand under Vision Care. This brand stands out as economical, polarised, and stylish sunglasses in Sri Lanka. They offer a wide variety of polarised and UV protected eyewear that tolerates the unbearable sun in Sri Lanka. Furthermore, most styles like Panto and Classic square models are priced around Rs. 7,500 to Rs. 10,000, which clearly turned the spotlight among other premium priced sunglasses at the CFW 2026.
This year, Vision Care marks its 13th consecutive year as the official eyewear partner for the Colombo Fashion Week. They celebrate this partnership streak alongside many other brand partnerships, some being the first ever, like the BRICS+ collaboration, while some as old as Vision Care, like Hameedia. Residing along these partnerships, Polar Sun stole the show by turning the spotlight on itself and securing its position in the Sri Lankan eyewear industry.
The Director of Polar Sun states that “ Having the trust of such a major eyewear retailer like Vision Care is something every eyewear brand dreams of. And we are extremely lucky and honored to have that behind our brand.”
With this acceleration, Polar Sun will continue to dominate the eyewear industry through its exclusive sunglasses in Sri Lanka. With a strong vision to offer not just stylish eyewear but also to safeguard your eyes from the harsh UV rays while offering clarity to your daily lifestyle, they have already initiated their responsibility to the Sri Lankan eyewear industry. Even further, they have become the first ever online sunglass store in Sri Lanka to offer a virtual try on feature to redefine online sunglass shopping.
With the introduction of their latest CFW Edit sunglasses collection, they are already creating their own statement in the modern fashion scene in Sri Lanka. Explore the future of sunglasses in Sri Lanka at Polar Sun.
