TheCostume Designers Guild Awards are awards presented annually by theCostume Designers Guild (CDG) to recognize outstanding achievement in costume design for film, television, short form productions, and costume illustration.[ 1]
In 1999, theCostume Designers Guild (CDG) began giving out its own awards to honor outstanding achievements in costume design at a ceremony similar to that of theDGA ,WGA ,PGA , andSAG awards.[ 2] Thefirst CDG Awards presentation was held on February 6, 1999, atthe Beverly Hills Hotel , hosted by actressAnjelica Huston .[ 2] Two competitive categories for excellence in film and television have been presented;Judianna Makovsky andVan Broughton Ramsey won forPleasantville andThe Tempest , respectively.[ 3] Nevertheless, these categories were divided into various genres for all subsequent ceremonies. The inaugural career achievement award recipients were veteran designersAlbert Wolsky andBob Mackie .[ 3] All winners and honorees were given the CDGA statuette, which is made ofsterling silver and depicts a female figure draped in an amorphous swirl of fabric.[ 2]
Through the years, the CDG Awards has expanded to include several competition categories that encompass film, television and commercials.[ 4]
