Avril

Kenyan singer Avril had one of the biggest highlights of her career on this event if her social media posts are anything to go by. Her hair was a tad too much for the dress which had quite a lot detail. That said, she still slayed the red carpet.

Dorah Mwima

It’s been a minute since we chanced upon this lovely couple. Former Miss Uganda Dorah Mwima proved that her maternity style game is just as good. She stepped out in a red dress by Viva Collections (located on Mukwano Courts Buganda Road. Shop No. G.08). Her hair was done by Age Salon (located on Ntinda Complex). She did her makeup.

Flavia Tumusiime

If there’s anyone who knows how to accentuate her curvy frame effortlessly, it has to be media personality Flavia Tumusiime. She was the envy of everyone in this dress by Fashion Episode (located on Jumbo plaza). Her hair was held in an updo done by Freddies from Freddies Salon while her makeup was done by Marion from Kamikutz at Krsna Mart mall.

Flosha wore this monochrome outfit designed by herself but brought to life by Miss Fixit by Brenda Nanyonjo. She’s Natna Natural Hair’s ‘short pieces’ ambassador, so her hair was done by the brand. Her makeup was done Nahya Shero for Nahya Glam.

Desire Luzinda

She owned the night in a custom-made black gown with sequin and sheer detail. She took her red carpet style game a notch high this time, inviting her daughter along in an identical piece. There’s no doubt Desire Luzinda deserved the award for Best Dressed Female Celebrity. Her dress was designed by Lillian Kyabaki.

Sylvia Owori

Fashion icon Sylvia Owori wore a cream dress with fringe detail which made her twirl all through the night. The dress was designed by her brand.

Sally

The actress (she stars in NTV Second Chance) wore this orange number which fit her personal style. She was both elegant and modest. She let her hair be the centerpiece of the whole look.

Lucky

Capital FM’s Lucky chose this simple printed dress with lace shoulder detail which had a matching headwrap to go. It fit her personal style, and I guess she was very comfortable. Her smile is priceless.

Hellen Lukoma & Leila Kayondo

Hellen Lukoma made a bold fashion choice channeling Kendall Jenner in this dress with a high slit dress going up to her waist. She held her hair in a crown and accessorized it. She designed the dress. did her makeup and her hair. She’s definitely made of more.

Leila Kayondo on the other hand chose to cover up in this gown which a touch of bridal and bits of sexy.
