Lux Style Awards on October 3

LAHORE: The 4th Lux Style Awards (LSA) for outstanding achievements in 2004 will be held in Karachi on October 3, in which latest fashions from renowned names in couture will grace the red carpet.

Pakistan’s top fashion designers are busy preparing for the biggest fashion event of the year. Ammar Belal, Athar Hafeez, Deepak Perwani, Maheen Khan, Nilofar Shahid, Nomi Ansari, Sadia Mirza, Sana and Safinaz, Sara Shahid, Sonya Battla, Tazeen Hussain and Umar Sayeed are making clothes for stars, super models and major personalities who will attend the awards.

Stylist Nabila and her team will style performers and presenters while producer Feriha Altaf has finalised the presenters and stars that will be invited to the event.

Designer and founding member of Pakistan Fashion Design Council Maheen Khan will present the awards. It will be her first appearance as a presenter. Maheen was on LSA’s Board of Governors in 2003 and 2004 and initiated most of the standards and rules that apply to the fashion awards segment. She set the “No nominations just for credit” rule, which meant that the LSA could not include nominees who did not pass a stipulated grade.

Maheen’s business acumen and impeccable fashion taste has allowed her to be relevant to Pakistani designing in the sixties when she first started out, and her Gulabo line is the trendiest collection seen on the ramps this season.

Singing sensation Atif Aslam will make his first appearance as a performer in the ceremony following the release of his recent hit album ‘Jalpari’.

The nominations for music are Abrarul Haq, Atif Aslam, Meekal Hasan and Mizraab. Ahsan and Amna for Rangeen, Asim Raza for Mahi ve, Jamshed Mehmood for Chal dil mere, Jamshed Mehmood for Dahni and Saqib Malik for Khamaj have been nominated for Best Music Video.
