25th Costume Designers Guild Nominations
Let’s start with an interesting note about category placement. Unlike the Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild, the Costume Designers Guild don’t allow for cross-pollination, which explains why Barbie got put into Fantasy rather than contemporary even though the film is in a contemporary setting. Now to the nitty-gritty. Looking over the films that we…
