The virtual event, sponsored by Campari, will also honor a Distinguished Collaborator who will be announced in the upcoming weeks.
Leading up to the show, the Costume Designers Guild Awards' Instagram page has been sharing "Behind the Seams" interviews with a few of the nominees.
Most recently, Emma costume designer Alexandra Byrne and The Queen's Gambit's Gabriele Binder discussed "their common thread" working with star Anya Taylor Joy. In another episode, Mank designer Trish Summerville and Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey's Michael Wilkinson discuss designing for a black and white film and playing with patterns and textures. Other nominees including Trayce Gigi Field (Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar), Ami Goodheart ("Blinding Lights" by the Weeknd), Tom Broecker (Saturday Night Live) and Lou Eyrich (The Prom) have also made an appearance on the virtual series.
Last January, A-listers like Charlize Theron, Mindy Kaling and Catherine O'Hara attended the CDGAs in Beverly Hills. While this year's ceremony is virtual, it'll still be a star-filled night.
Watch the 2021 CDGAs live on Twitter on April 13 at 8:30 p.m. ET.
