It seems like Veet has finally taken note of what other platforms have been doing, by recognising the attributes of renowned professionals from the Pakistani television and fashion industry.
The brand’s acclaimed fashion event, Veet Celebration of Beauty, will be held Saturday night in Karachi. Apart from musical performances and a fashion show, featuring talented local designers like Khadija Shah of Elan, Sadaf Malaterre, Ali Xeeshan and Sana Safinaz, the show will also introduce a beauty awards segment, for the first time. Veet is known for taking initiatives to promote young Pakistani females and their talent through their popular show, Veet Miss Super Model. However, with a benchmark already set by the Lux Style Awards and considering that there are hardly any awards shows in the country apart from those, it will interesting to see what the event has to offer.
A total of eight awards will be handed over tonight and the list of nominees includes:
Most Beautiful Smile
Mehwish Hayat, Humaima Malick, Mahira Khan, Mehreen Raheel and Syra Yousaf
