The nominees for the 23rd Costume Designers Guild Awards are here!
The awards show, which is taking place on April 13, 2021 amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, celebrates excellence in film, television and short-form costume design. Mank, Da 5 Bloods and Judas and the Black Messiah are among the costumes recognized in film this year, along with Birds of Prey, Wonder Woman 1984 and Promising Young Woman. On the TV side, binge-worthy favorites Schitt's Creek, Emily in Paris, Bridgerton and The Queen's Gambit all made the cut, along with reality competition shows like Dancing With the Stars and The Masked Singer.
"We've had to come together as a community to support one another during these unprecedented times," Salvador Perez, President of the Costume Designers Guild, IATSE Local 892, said in a statement. "We believe that through our work we have been supporting our audiences as well. We look forward to honoring costume designers’ achievements and their creativity which has transported and inspired us.”
"With the need to shift our show to a virtual and limited in-person production, we embraced the opportunity to create an entirely new format that will amplify the recognition of these brilliant costume designers,” added JL Pomeroy, Executive Producer of CDGA. "For the first time, fans can tune-in on Twitter to help celebrate the innovative genius of the costume designers who bring characters to life in their favorite films and series."
