The event promises to be a glittering affair, set to take place in Karachi and featuring a constellation of notable personalities from Pakistan’s creative landscape.
For over two decades, the LUX Style Awards have played a pivotal role in recognizing and nurturing talent across various creative fields, including fashion, film, music, and television. This celebration of artistic brilliance has not only bestowed honour upon outstanding individuals but has also significantly contributed to shaping and elevating Pakistan’s creative industries.
The nomination announcement triggered a wide range of reactions from Pakistan’s entertainment elite. Acclaimed model Mushk Kaleem expressed her support and pride for some of her friends in the industry while also taking a critical stance. In her Instagram Stories, she congratulated makeup artist Arshad Khan and others with warm words. “Congratulations are in order for my favourite people. So proud of each and every one of you!” said the model in one Story. In another, she said, “Looking at the LUX Style Awards fashion nominations and at this point, they should just completely cancel all fashion awards.”
