Narnia Fans » Costume Designers Guild

The Costume Designers Guild has announced their nominees for 2008, and Prince Caspian costume designer Isis Mussenden has been nominated for excellence in fantasy film!  Congrats, Isis!

The nominees for excellence in fantasy film are Isis Mussenden for “Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian,” Lindy Hemming for “The Dark Knight” and Sanja Milkovic Hays for ” The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.”

It looks like she’s up against some pretty stiff competition.  I’ve not seen The Mummy 3, but Dark Knight’s costumes were pretty incredible.  At least the few that were recognizably original to the film.

Isis Mussenden, the costume designer for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, won the Costume Design Guild Award for Excellence in Fantasy Film award. The awards ceremony took place at the Beverly Hilton on Saturday night, February 25th. This was the 8th annual Costume Design Guild awards ceremony and the first to feature a separate award for excellence in fantasy film, a category that had been combined with period film.

Tossing its hat into the ongoing onslaught of nominations, the Costume Designers Guild on Wednesday announced the nominees for its eighth annual Costume Designers Guild Awards.

This year, the guild separated its period/fantasy category into two separate categories. Nominated for fantasy film work are: Lindy Hemming, “Batman Begins”; Gabriella Pescucci, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”; Isis Mussenden, “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe“; Nina Proctor, “Sin City”; and Trisha Biggar, “Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith.”
