Costume Designers Guild Award for Excellence in Contemporary Film


The Costume Designers Guild Award for Excellence in Contemporary Film is one of the annual awards given by the Costume Designers Guild.
In 1998, the Guild introduced a single award category titled Excellence in Film, in which all films competed regardless of genre. Among the inaugural nominees, three were period dramas, while two, including the winner, Pleasantville, were fantasy films. Beginning with the 1999 ceremony, the Guild divided the award into two categories: Excellence in Contemporary Film and Excellence in Period/Fantasy Film.
