With the biggest fashion awards ceremony wrapped, guests headed to the real party that lasted well into the night—MEGA trophies included
After the main event of The MEGA Fashion Awards 2024 officially came to a close, the festivities didn’t stop there. Once all the wins, exciting firsts for nominees, and emotional speeches were over, the celebrated creatives in the industry headed straight from Maybank Performance Theater to the after-party bash. The affair had dim lights and burning candles to set the mood, a DJ to lead guests to the dance floor, Nordic to provide the guests ever-flowing drinks, and the creatives in the industry who took this after-party to the uppermost echelons. It was a fitting finale for the biggest event in fashion.
