The highly anticipated 13th Lux Style Awards is set to take place in Karachi tomorrow (Thursday), with the announcement of winners from the field of entertainment and fashion.
While the LSAs are usually a glamorous, star-studded evening — dubbed the ‘Pakistani Oscars’ — with stars dressed in their red carpet best each year, this year’s celebration is a low-key daytime affair with a simple announcement of winners followed by hi-tea.
The list of nominees, which was released earlier this year in August, includes:
