In contemporary costume, “Saltburn’s” costume designer Sophie Canale won there.

Shawna Trpcic who passed away last year, posthumously won for her work on the Disney+ show “Ahsoka.”

Wendi McLendon-Covey served as the night’s host. Annette Bening received the Spotlight Award. Bening has worked alongside costume designers such as Albert Wolsky and Julie Weiss, and was recognized for her special awareness of the role and importance of costume design. However, due to COVID, Bening was unable to accept the speech in person.

Francine Jamison-Tanchuck was presented with the career achievement award. She thanked mentors including Ann Roth and Edith Head. Getting emotional, Jamison-Tanchuck said, “I’ve had an incredible journey through this industry, and somehow I don’t feel I’m really done yet.”

Billie Eilish was the recipient of the inaugural Vanguard award. Eilish said, “Fashion has always been my way of expression more than anything else. It’s my communication tool.”

Pay Equity was a theme of the night highlighting their decades-long pay discrepancies. With IATSE Basic Agreement negotiations set to start in March, the guild is pushing forward with its call to action. B. Åkerlund and Mandi Line were among the many costume designers whose outfits reflected the guild’s fight.

SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher kicked off the show with a recorded message, saying, “Please know SAG-AFTRA supports you in your upcoming negotiations and commitment to pay equity. We thank you for your support and solidarity during our recent strike.”
