Kenyan celebrities have been under fire on social media for what most people call a "lack of effort" when dressing up for red carpet events. However, it is important to note that these allegations don't apply to all celebrities.

Over the years, certain fashion trends and styles have become normative and universally accepted. From elegant, stylish dresses for the ladies to contemporary tuxedos for the men, the red carpet is where fashion trends are born, celebrated and history is made.
