30 Movies That Won an Academy Award for the Best Costume Design Over the Past 30 Years
The costumes that movie characters wear can tell us a lot about their lifestyle and inner worlds without them even saying a single word. Thoroughly thought over, historically accurate, and meticulously made, the costumes we see on the big screen transport us to other times and spaces and make up the atmosphere of the story. This is why costume design is one of the criteria that the Motion Picture Academy uses to decide which films were the best in a particular year.
