Clothing brand Generation and prominent makeup artist Saima Bargfrede were honoured to have been nominated for the awards in the Achievement in Fashion Design (prêt) and Best Hair & Makeup Artist category respectively at this year’s Lux Style Awards (LSA), however the two entities have decided to follow in Best Emerging Talent nominee Eman Suleman’s footsteps and step down from this year’s ceremony. The decision is in protest to the award platform’s choice to include a nomination for an individual who faces serious and credible accusations of sexual harassment. The two brands stand with women who face and fight toxic misogyny, sexism and sexual harassment in multiple ways in pursuance of their dreams and indeed in their daily lives.
