We give you the scoop on who showed up, who wore what and most importantly, who won what
Updated 20 Apr, 2017

The 16th Lux Style Awards (LSAs) are finally all set to take place tonight at the Expo Centre in Karachi — with a promise of glitz, glam, the whole shebang.

The nominations may feel a bit dated and confusing but here's hoping the LSAs are able to redeem themselves with a star-studded red carpet and an event that pulls out all stops and is high on entertainment.
