Lux Style Awards
Defined by superlatives, the
awards ceremony of the 9th Lux Style Awards took place
with the customary pomp and glamour in the Crystal Ball Room of the Karachi
Marriott Hotel. Celebrities, socialites and the best in the
field of music, movies, television and fashion were in audience to
celebrate the colours and allure of performing arts in Pakistan.
Organised and managed by Catwalk Productions the proceedings began with the National Anthem. That was the only sober moment of a highly charged evening as the host, comedian Sami Shah started off by taking broad swipes at everything from the Fashion Week councils, to controversies, to leading personalities and even the Lux Style Awards itself!
This year's LSA was along the lines of the Golden Globes, a seated dinner format and devoid of performances, unlike the awards ceremonies of previous years. Twenty-four winners in four industry's were honoured for their excellence and then were felicitated by the creme de la creme. Three winners from the category of Film, 8 from the categories of Television, 4 winners from the category of Music and 9 high achievers from the category of Fashion were honoured for their achievements in their fields in 2009.
