The 2025 Costume Designers Guild Awards (CDGA) unfolded in a dazzling display of creativity and style on Thursday (February 6) evening in Los Angeles. The event honoured exemplary contributions to costume design across film, television, short-form media, and illustration. The star-studded roster of nominees featured four of the five Oscar-nominated films for Best Costume Design: Conclave, Gladiator II, Nosferatu, and Wicked. However, one notable omission from the CDGA nominations was the Academy Award-nominated A Complete Unknown, leaving many to wonder about its absence from this prestigious recognition.
