Colombo, Sri Lanka, July 13, 2024: LOVI Ceylon will bring a touch of royal splendour to the Sri Lankan delegation at the Paris Olympics this month.

“LOVI Ceylon goes to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games,” the post said.
“An Olympic athlete is rare indeed—fueled by the singular drive to be the best in the world. LOVI honours that drive by dressing our own Sri Lankan Olympians in Paris this year.
“Our athletes are wearing a modern take on the Nilame (Prince) and Manike (Princess) outfits worn in the royal court. The handwork alone—thousands of beads and embroidery on silks and natural fibres—shares the story of Sri Lanka’s deeply rooted culture, craft and artistry with the world.
“LOVI is proud to support our dedicated athletes, coaches and officials. Go Team Sri Lanka.”
