Star Studio Magazine, the best in entertainment style and lifestyle magazine, highlights its 10th year milestone by mounting the first ever Star Studio Celebrity Style Awards.
In partnership with the Velvet channel and Metro Magazine, the Star Studio Celebrity Style Awards pays tribute to the dedication and creativity of Filipino "style ambassadors" in the field of music, film, television, and fashion – celebrities who never fail to stand out by making the most out of life and look good doing it.
Hosted by singer and TV host Marc Abaya, the launch event of the Star Studio Celebrity Style Awards held on June 29 at Dusit Thani Manila, Makati City announced the list of nominees for the different award categories.
Being the very first awards show mounted by the magazine, the Star Studio Celebrity Style Awards selected its nominees via a thorough selection process. The Star Studio editorial team collated entries for each category based on a specific style criteria. To complete the process, a formidable "Style Council" comprised of an exclusive group of experts from different style and fashion related industries, deliberated and decided on the final five nominees per category.
The Star Studio Celebrity Style Awards categories are divided into three types: People’s Choice Awards, Technical Awards and Celebrity Awards. A second style council will be convened to decide on the winners for both Technical and Celebrity Awards categories, while the winners for People’s Choice will be based on public voting via texting.
