The evening of 14TH Lux Style Awards 2015 is just round the corner, even the coveted Lux Style awards has unveiled their nominations. This has increased the excitement of many celebs, including musicians, designers, directors, and stars. Besides the expected suspects, the nominees list also includes some fresh, young'uns vying for the prestigious awards. This highlights the efforts of LSA for appreciating and promoting the talent in youth. The best the young blood of Karachi can do to get promoted to a better platform is finding a modeling agency in Karachi and get promoted to a better platform. Same goes to other cities as well.
Lux Style awards have been famous for promoting the young talent and praising those previously thriving in the industry. Unlike the tradition of the Lux Style Awards, this time the LSA jury has claimed that there won’t be any separate awards for Best Actor, Best Actress and the Best TV Serial as they believe there is a lack of fresh content, so we are sorry for those expecting to see the terrestrial and satellite categories in 2015’s LSA awards.
In contrast, the fashion jury has announced to reinstate the bridal category and the prime focus on the bridal finery as a green signal to the part of industry that has benefitted from the recent advent bridal fashion weeks.
There are four categories, namely Fashion, Film, Music and Television and each one has a separate jury. These categories collectively comprise of 21 awards that will be presented to the most deserving performer in their respective fields. Most of the categories in music and TV will be settled as per the viewer’s choice votes whereas the ten fashion categories will be judged by a second tier of the jury.
