The Costume Designers Guild's film nominees could give us an idea of which movie might be Oscar-nominated for their looks.
Feast your eyes on these nominations: The Costume Designers Guild has announced their 2019 CDGA nominees in film and television, which range from the fabulous fur coats of Ocean's 8 to the buttoned-up corsets of The Favourite and Mary Queen of Scots, the Afrofuturistic tribal wear of Black Panther to the overalls of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
As always, the guilds serve as a bellwether to Oscar nominations and, though this awards show splits its nominees by genre -- recognizing period pieces separately than sci-fi and fantasy designs -- we expect to see the likes of Black Panther's Ruth E. Carter (a two-time Academy Award nominee for Malcolm X and Amistad) and The Favourite's Sandy Powell (a three-time winner for Shakespeare in Love, The Aviator and The Young Victoria) come nominations day.
