  1. Not to take anything away from Sandy Powell, who is most deserving, but as she said herself, designers of contemporary films (non-historicals)never get Oscars these days. The Costume Designers Guild has several categories of awards, so there is some recognition among their peers. But yes this Oscar lack just reinforces the popular notion that a costume is something you wear on Halloween and fashion is worn today.

  2. I know, I thought that was wonderful what she said as well as very generous. The same thing can be said for art direction as well.
