LAUNE x Sunday Polo Club
Meet Sunday Polo Club! Sunday Polo Club was founded by siblings Sultan and Rawan Hussin, originally as a team name for Sultan’s Sunday polo matches. What began as a personal project quickly evolved into a lifestyle brand offering limited quantities of curated products. Sultan, a plastic surgeon with a lifelong passion for horses and polo, and Rawan, an architect with a sharp eye for design, combined their distinct talents and shared vision to shape the brand. With an Instagram feed that is Pinterest worthy and an elegant yet athletic aesthetic, learn more about SPC below!
1. Tell me about yourself and Sunday Polo Club. How was Sunday Polo Club created?
Sultan:
Sunday Polo Club started as a team name for my Sunday polo matches — my only day off from working as a surgeon. What began as a personal project quickly grew into something more, and I brought Rawan on board to handle the creative direction. With her background in architecture and design, she had the ideal expertise to shape the brand’s visual identity.
Our goal with Sunday Polo Club is to make polo feel more inclusive. The sport has a rich tradition but can sometimes feel out of reach. We aim to make it more approachable while respecting its history. We’re dedicated to using high-quality materials that outperform those of high-end brands, but without inflating the prices.
I also curate Spotify playlists called "Sunday Sounds,” inspired by my love for music from all genres and cultures around the world.
2. What is the LAUNE (mood) of Sunday Polo Club?
Relaxed, laid back and equally a social a day bringing together friends and family.
3. What inspires you?
Sultan: Classic books, music (check out Sunday Sounds on Spotify), nature.
4. What does the design process look like?
Rawan:
We handle all our graphics, content creation and product design in-house. Our inspiration spans from archival books and objects to architecture and interiors. Creating mood boards and speculative products is a great way to explore new ideas. Collaborating with different artists helps keep our brand identity playful and ensures we stand out from other equestrian brands. As we work full-time in practice, we collaborate with friends and connections along the way to help bring our content to life.
5. What’s next for you and Sunday Polo Club?
We’re looking to expand into coffee culture and continue creating more high-end, accessible products. There are lots of exciting ideas in the works, but we’re keeping things under wraps for now so stay tuned!
