The fourth edition of the ever-popular Hum Style Awards took place on Saturday evening at the Expo Centre in Karachi, and with it, set the tone for the 2020 award season as a plethora of exhilarating performances, brilliant winners, and memories that would last for many years to come were set in front of the dazzled audiences.
It all was set to the tone of classy meeting the contemporary, and be it the glittering guests or the charismatic celebrities, everyone remained mesmerised as the evening turned into the night at the HSAs 2020.
So, amidst all the exuberance and excitement, what were the things team Diva loved the most? We have the lowdown…
The Set-Up
A cosmopolitan vibe at the red carpet and in the main arena changed the way one looks at the Expo Center. The set design was impeccably done, and be it the tones of black and gold covering the stage or the dynamic screens that changed with every performance, the set was a treat in every way.
The Red Carpet Looks
The Red Carpet is always the place where you find the most fab and the drabbest looks to love and to question, and the HSA2020 platform gave us plenty of opportunity for that. There were some ensembles we couldn’t get our eyes off of, and from head to toe, celebs like Ayesha Omar, Kiran Malik, Fahmeen Ansari, Zara Abid, Sonya Hussyn, Mushk Kaleem, amongst others had us obsessed!
But, more on whose outfit we loved and whose we couldn’t deal with, tomorrow, in our exclusive coverage of the red carpet!
The Performances
No Hum Style Awards are ever complete without buzzing performances and mesmerising stars and this year was, of course, going to be no different. There was something to be enjoyed by everyone, and be it Ahsan Khan and Sara Loren dancing to the thumping beats of Lollywood, Urwa Hocane and Farhan Saeed burning the house down with their moves, Abrar Ul Haq making everyone move to his rhythm, or Zara Noor Abbas performing to classical music, it was all power-packed in every way!
