The Costume Designers Guild Statuette

You may be wondering, “What does a COSTUME DESIGNER do?” A COSTUME DESIGNER transforms the words of the script into visual imagery and creates the look of a character. Costume design helps to create believable characters and supports the narrative in a fictional universe. In other words, costume design is storytelling.
