The LUX Style Awards announced the nominations for the 15th LUX Style Awards at an elegant Nominee Reveal event last week at Darbar Hall in Karachi’s Movenpick Hotel.
This is the 15th year of the prestigious LUX Style Awards – a proud first for Pakistan’s Award shows – and the clear intent is to celebrate it in every way possible.
Nominees for LSA 2016 were announced in 27 categories in Fashion, Film, Music and TV. To acknowledge and reinforce its belief in the growing Film industry, this year the award office of LSA has introduced four new categories i.e. Best Supporting Actor–Male, Best Supporting Actor–Female, Best Playback Singer Male and Best Playback Singer Female.
Mahirah Khan the present brand ambassador of Lux was the pivot host of the star studded event along with Yasir Hussain, Ahmed Ali Butt, Adnan Malik and Humayun Saeed who went up to announce several segments.
Chairman Unilever Shazia Syed, said, “It is with tremendous pride and pleasure that we welcome all Nominees, the Jury and all our media partners who have travelled with us during this journey of 15 years. The LUX Style Awards seeks to celebrate the outstanding achievement of all artists and practitioners in the fields of Fashion, Film, Music and TV. These Awards and the Scholarship Awards that we announce every year is our commitment to Pakistan’s Fashion and Entertainment Industry.”
The 15th annual Lux Style Awards for Fashion, Film, Music and TV will be held later in July.
