The 19-year-old LUX Style Awards carries an enviable legacy that is one of a kind. The platform has been producing iconic moments on stage with magical dance performances and tributes to Pakistan's legendary stars.

Celebrity hosts sharing love and laughter with all who climb up the glamourous stage, tear jerking lifetime achievement awards, rousing winning speeches, a showcase of everything that’s worthy and fantabulous in the Pakistani entertainment and fashion scene, the incomparable LUX Style Awards have, through these tumultuous years, given us memories that encompass a lifetime.

Here are few of Pakistan's most celebrated influencers talking about their favourite LSA moments:

Aamna Haider Isani

When talking about the LSA's glorious memories, Aamna Haider Isani, Editor at Instep and the face of entertainment website Something Haute, says her most memorable moment was a throwback to the 7th Lux Style Awards that took place in 2008 where Atif Aslam performed a tribute for the true folk legend Reshma.

She explained how stirring it was to watch Reshma, now advanced in age but still the star, come on stage and sing her widely acclaimed 'Lambi Judai', a song that has been the most heartfelt of all times. Later she was joined by Atif Aslam and Shehzad Roy on stage, where the former was seen going down on his knees to seek blessings and pay homage to her art. It was a very emotional moment for the audience as they all gave Reshma an instinctive standing ovation. Two of the most loved artists of Pakistan were seen together on stage for the first and the last time, leaving an impact that is truly the stuff of tribute goals.

Maliha Rehman and Rabia Mughni

Maliha Rehman, a lifestyle journalist and contributor at Images, and Rabia Mughni from Fuchsia Magazine, shared that their most memorable moment from last year's LSA was when Atif paid a tribute to iconic star Shabnam, one of the most successful leading ladies in Pakistan’s cinematic history, who was also presented with the Unilever Chairman’s Lifetime Achievement Award.

Atif performed one of Pakistan's most celebrated Lollywood numbers from the movie Aina, 'Mujhe dil se na bhulana' took Shabnam, who in the front row, down memory lane; the singer took Shabnam to the stage as leading celebs of the industry performed a medley of her most celebrated songs.

Fittingly, Shabnam and the celebs were joined on stage by Nadeem, another legendary name in Pakistan's film industry and one of Shabnam's leading co-actors; Nadeem also remains one of the very first recipients of this award, which was first introduced at the 2nd LUX Style Award in 2003.

The duo seen together after a gap of 30 odd years received a standing ovation. The audience rejoiced when Shabnam narrated stories from her experience of working with Nadeem, smiling as she mentioned that Nadeem was always late on set and that she was truly surprised to see him reach the LSA shows in time.
