"On behalf of the Costume Designers Guild, I’d like to congratulate all of our 22nd CDGA nominees. This year is a particularly exciting year for television as we have updated our rules of submission. Designers now submit a single episode that best represents their work on a series. We are looking forward to celebrating all of our talented costume designers, as well as our amazing honorees in January, and are so thankful to our premier sponsors, Westfield Century City and Campari®, for making our awards gala possible,” said Salvador Perez, President of the Costume Designers Guild Local #892.
