The Costume Designers Guild has announced nominations for the 26th Costume Designers Guild Awards, with “Maestro,” “Barbie,” “Poor Things” and “Oppenheimer” among those landing nominations.
The costume designers behind “Killers of the Flower Moon” and “Napoleon” will vie for the top prize in excellence in period film, while the artisans behind “American Fiction,” “May December,” “Nyad,” “Renfield” and “Saltburn” will compete for excellence in contemporary costume.

Thousands emulated Beach Barbie and Ken looks as they showed up at movie theaters in various shades of pink. For the film, Durran created hundreds of looks for the various Barbies and Kens.

The Oscar chances for Best Costume Design frontrunners “Barbie,” “Poor Things,” “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Maestro,” and “Oppenheimer” were bolstered by their nominations for the 26th Costume Designer Guild Awards on January 4. The Cdga will be held February 21, 2024, at Neuehouse Hollywood.
While “Barbie” was nominated in the sci-fi/fantasy category — and should prevail over “Haunted Mansion,” “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes,” “The Little Mermaid,” and “Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire” — the other four compete in the period category against “Napoleon,” with “Poor Things” as the clear favorite here.
Meanwhile, the contemporary contenders include “American Fiction,” “May December,” “Nyad,” “Renfield,” and “Saltburn.” None is expected to make the final Oscar cut, but “Saltburn” is the flashy favorite here.
In terms of the Oscar race, it looks like a feminist battle between Greta Gerwig’s billion-dollar blockbuster “Barbie” and Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Poor Things.

If you've ever wondered what it's like to lounge on Monica Geller's couch, strum a tune on Phoebe Buffay's guitar, or sip a steaming cup of coffee in the middle of Central Perk, The "Friends" Experience can make it happen. After establishing a permanent location in New York City in 2019 for the show's 25th anniversary, the interactive experience - created in partnership with Warner Bros. and Superfly X - opened up in seven other US cities, as well as Toronto. On Oct. 13, the experience became available in San Francisco, so I took the opportunity to check it out for myself and see if it truly lives up to '90s vibes.
What Is The "Friends" Experience?
Like the iconic TV show, the experience - which took almost eight months to design - focuses on the main cast: Monica, Rachel (Jennifer Aniston), Chandler (Matthew Perry), Joey (Matt LeBlanc), Phoebe, and...

The Costume Designers Guild handed out its trophies for the 22nd annual Cdg Awards with “Jojo Rabbit” and “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” receiving top honors among the costumers.
In the TV category, the hit “The Masked Singer” and designer Marina Toybina beat out reigning designer Zaldy (“RuPaul’s Drag Race”) for excellence in variety, reality-competition, live television.
Mindy Kaling hosted the evening, which celebrated special honorees Charlize Theron, Mary Ellen Fields, Michael Kaplan and Adam McKay.
Catherine O’Hara accepted the award on behalf of “Schitt’s Creek” winner Debra Hanson. O’Hara said during the Getty Fires she had three minutes to save her prized possessions. “I had three minutes to evacuate,” she said. “I grabbed my passport, photos of my two sons and my character’s clothes.”

"The One Where No One's Ready" and Joey wearing all of Chandler's clothes is definitely Balenciaga's inspiration for its insanely expensive 7-layer coat -- so says the "Friends" costume designer, who's flattered. When Balenciaga's $9,000 coat became available for pre-order sales at Barney's New York, not only did it trigger immediate Joey memes across the globe, Debra McGuire -- the costume designer who came up with the look in season 3 -- also took notice.

Anna Kendrick's butt double wasn't the only Nsfw decoy used in this summer's raunchy comedy Mike and Dave Need Weddings Dates. Her co-star Sugar Lyn Beard went full frontal with an assist from what she calls a "vagina wig." Beard sported a very bushy merkin for her nether regions. "I just wanted like a fury thick bush that would make women proud," she told E! News at the comedy's Hollywood premiere last month. With that in mind, we're taking a look at how Hollywood makes merkins, fake penises and more adult-only comedy props. The movie's costume designer Debra McGuire was asked by director Jake Szymanski to find just the right one. "We were actually...

The Art Directors Guild and the Costume Designers Guild have become the latest groups to announce their nominees for 2013. They may not be considered as big or as important as the Producers Guild, the Directors Guild, or the Writers Guild, but they are still a pretty good prognosticator for who will eventually take home the Oscar in their respective categories.
The Art Directors split their categories up into Period, Fantasy, and Contemporary Films (along with various TV categories), but the main one of importance here is the Period, where we find the more fanciful, eye-catching designs. Here, we find what was mostly expected: American Hustle, The Great Gatsby, Inside Llewyn Davis, Saving Mr. Banks, and 12 Years a Slave. If I had to venture a guess, I’d say that The Great Gatsby has this one in the bag. There were those who didn’t enjoy the film (I actually found...

Courtroom attire is pretty straightforward: Look as if you are going to an important event at a house of worship.
For men, at least those trying to convince a jury of their innocence, that means a conservative suit, ironed shirt, tie, polished shoes and a neat haircut. But then there was nothing straightforward about Phil Spector.
His courtroom attire was bizarre, as evidenced in HBO's "Phil Spector," premiering Sunday, March 24. It's writer David Mamet's take on the music producer as he prepared for his first murder trial. Al Pacino plays Spector.
Those who followed the trial know that every day Spector showed up in something outlandish."As a designer I was always mesmerized by the theatricality of how he approached the courtroom," costume designer Debra McGuire tells Zap2it. "It vacillated and it had no rhyme or reason, which made it more interesting, which was the part I really wanted to capture in this.

Still in syndication, the long-running 1990s sitcom Friends has been available as a Complete Series Collection set since 2006, but only on DVD.

Fox's hit comedy New Girl has not only won over audiences with its hilarious characters (Schmidt for the win) but for Zooey Deschanel's Jess's adorable style.
Jess's quirky ensembles don't stray too far from what hipster queen Zooey would wear in real life, and now New Girl costumer Debra McGuire is dishing on the character's Anthropologie-filled closet.
McGuire suggests that the stylish effect of Jess's wardrobe isn't solely due to the clothes itself -- but that they look extra cute because of Zooey herself.
Zooey Deschanel: 'Girls Spit In My Face'
"Everything is so darn cute on her," McGuire tells People. "The hair, the face, the eyes … every time she puts something on it just sparkles."
For those of us looking to add a little sparkle to our own wardrobes, there is one key to emulating Jess's quirky/cute style -- you have to be willing to mix and match colors.

Proving that even infantile humor can be funny, "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy" does make you laugh even if you hate yourself for doing so. A creation of former "Saturday Night Live" colleagues, the comedy plays like an extended skit with bits of improvisation and several slightly extended sequences.
Will Ferrell co-wrote the script with former "SNL" head writer Adam McKay. Ferrell plays the title role, while McKay makes his directing debut. If Ferrell's recent screen successes -- "Elf" and "Old School" -- mean anything, this broadly played (to put it mildly) antic comedy should become a hit with the young crowd.
The film does tackle an interesting subject -- the invasion of the male-dominated TV newsroom by women journalists in the 1970s. Formerly a place where anchormen, male reporters and a mostly male crew smoked, sipped Scotch and generally exuded testosterone, this clubby atmosphere was shattered by female reporters and eventually -- to the men's shock and chagrin -- anchorwomen.
Ferrell stars as Ron Burgundy, the top-rated anchorman in the San Diego market during the '70s, whose wardrobe fits his name and whose journalistic talents are nonexistent. What he is is a news reader, a voice disconnected from the brain. (He is notorious for reading anything that appears on a teleprompter, which will lead to his ruination.)
His "sidekicks" are Champ Kind (David Koechner), outfitted with a cowboy hat and a good-ol'-boy sensibility; Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd), a field reporter with a flair for the fatuous; and weather guy Brick Talmand (Steve Carell), who is as thick as a ... well, a brick.
In the name of "diversity," news producer Ed Harken (the always hilarious Fred Willard) recruits newswoman Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate) for the news team. Her very presence provokes conflicted instincts among the men. The entire news team tries to bed her, with disastrous results for all except Ron. But when a traffic mishap (involving a uproarious cameo by Jack Black) prevents Ron from making the evening newscast one fateful day, Veronica replaces him and, despite the best efforts of the rest of the male team to sabotage her, is an instant success. So the fur flies as the tomcats howl and scratch in bitter frustration.
The key to the comedy is that Ferrrell and McKay see TV newsrooms of the '70s as kindergartens. The high jinks and attempts to undermine colleagues are akin to children fighting over the sandbox. This bright comic idea extends to a "rumble" among all the male San Diego news teams, which features achingly funny cameos by, among others, Luke Wilson, Ben Stiller and, as a PBS newsman, Tim Robbins.
Ferrell and Applegate make appealing foes whose sexual attraction only fuels their acrimonious rivalry. Ferrell's suavity -- for the '70s, mind you -- barely covers up his oafishness, while Applegate's pretty-in-pastel glamour barely disguises her predatory instincts. All the other actors have amusing moments in the broadest, most cartoonish sense.
The behind-the-camera team has goofy fun with the era's truly awful hair and fashion styles, equally bad music and monochromatic, bare-bones TV news desks. Of course, the main fun comes at the expense of the era's male chauvinism that now plays like such quaint nonsense.
