“Some films you like because you love the end product, and other films you like because you had the best time making them,” award-winning costume designer Sandy Powell tells Refinery29 just hours before the opening of her first-ever retrospective at SCAD Fash Museum of Fashion and Film in Atlanta. From Shakespeare In Love, The Aviator, and Young Victoria (which earned Powell Best Costume Design Oscar wins) to Velvet Goldmine and The Favourite (for which she won BAFTAs) and Gangs of New York and Carol (for which she has been nominated for), Powell has worked on some of the most visually stunning costumes of the past 40 years. Now, “Sandy Powell’s Dressing the Part: Costume Design for Film” exhibit celebrates Powell’s contributions to the cinematic canon – which have been recognized with 15 Academy Awards and 16 British Academy Awards! – with 125 costumes on display.
