Andrew Garfield accepting his prize
The Costume Design Guild Awards were held last night. Teary Andrew Garfield received the Spotlight Award and said costume designers were his favourite to collaborate with. Producers Amy Pascal and Rachel O'Connor where honored as Distinguished Collaborators and Sharen Davis received the Career Achievement Award. The late Anthony Powell was also inducted into the CDG Hall of Fame by Glenn Close in a prerecorded segment. The Costume Designers Guild divvies their annual prizes up into Contemporary, Fantasy, and Period which means that three films get to share honors. This year they went for Coming 2 America, Dune, and Cruella... the latter two are also competing for the Oscar. Winners and comments after the jump...
EXCELLENCE IN PERIOD FILM
Jenny Beavan, Cruella designer
- ★ Cruella, Jenny Beavan
- Cyrano, Massimo Cantini Parrini & Jacqueline Durran
- House of Gucci, Janty Yates
- Nightmare Alley, Luis Sequeira
- West Side Story, Paul Tazewell
Jenny Beavan received her third CDG win and she's also enjoying her 11th nomination at the Oscars for Cruella. She's won two Oscars previously for A Room With A View (1986) and Mad Max Fury Road (2015) and if the 71 year old legend wins a third for Cruella... that's going to be quite a triple! They're all in different genres, from different studios and filmmakers, and take place in totally different time frames!
Most of this period list transferred to the Oscar lineup with House of Gucci falling out and replaced by Dune.

EXCELLENCE IN SCI-FI/FANTASY FILM
- ★ Dune, Jacqueline West & Robert Morgan
- The Green Knight, Malgosia Turzanska
- The Matrix Resurrections, Lindsay Pugh
- Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Kym Barrett
- Spider-Man: No Way Home, Sanja M. Hays
- The Suicide Squad, Judianna Makovsky
Dune brought Jacqueline West her first CDG win and also her fourth Oscar nomination though she has yet to win the naked gold man. Her previous nominations -- she's honored about once every seven years -- were for Quills (2000), The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008), and The Revenant (2015). In other words, if she doesn't win the Oscar for Dune we'll see her in the 2029 Oscar race!

EXCELLENCE IN CONTEMPORARY FILM
- ★ Coming 2 America, Ruth E. Carter
- Don't Look Up, Susan Matheson
- In The Heights, Mitchell Travers
- No Time to Die, Suttirat Anne Larlarb
- Zola, Derica Cole Washington
The Academy rarely nominats contemporary work so none of these film made their list. Congratulations to Ruth E Carter on her second competitive CDG win. The 61 year old designer also received the CDG lifetime achievement award a few years ago.

It's too bad that contemporary films don't get Oscar nominated more often, because those films really did have great costumes.
I have not yet seen Cruella, which "period" does it represent and why is it not "fantasy"?
I think Dune would be a poor Oscar winner over Nightmare Alley & West Side Story...
Are you going to post a detailed article about the 5 Oscar nominees like last year?
