Couture Africa Magazine and other partners held the first Couture Africa Style Awards last weekend at an exclusive event at Emara Hotel which was also streamed online.
The nominees were selected by a panel of judges followed by weeks of “campaigning” and voting online.
80% of the chosen winners truly deserve the win but a few winners could have won simply because they have many followers and are big personalities.
The winners:
Most Stylish Sportsman and Woman: Eliud Kipchoge and Janet Wanja
Most Stylish Entertainers: Catherine Kamau and Lenana Kariba
Most Stylish Entrepreneurs: Michelle Ntalami and Peter Nduati
Most Stylish Corporate Man and Woman: Kris Senanu and Carol Ndungu
Most Stylish Male and Female Public Servants: Mombasa Governor Hon Ali Hassan Joho and Sports, Heritage and Culture Cabinet Secretary Dr. Amina Mohammed
Most Stylish Content Creators: Maureen Waititu and Eric Omondi
Most Stylish TV and Radio Personalities: Lulu Hassan and MC Jesse
Most Stylish People of the Year: King Kaka and Catherine Kamau
While some of the nominees were understandably not present at the venue, some were and the cocktail gala event was a huge success. The dress code was bow ties and ball gowns and let’s just say this time almost came ready to impress but others were in a league of their own.
