This page is complete but for a massive time-loss problem in which I lost the write-ups and finalists lists. Apologies. I'll fill in after the season ends.

Amy Westcott BLACK SWAN (with assists from Rodarte) |
Antonella Cannarozzi I AM LOVE (with assists from Fendi & Jil Sander) |
Louise Stjernsward MADE IN DAGENHAM |
Carol Beadle THE RUNAWAYS |
Mary Zophres TRUE GRIT |
Westcott color codes those meant-to-be similar characters beautifully. Then Rodarte throws more crystals and feathers onto Portman than she could possibly yank out in a fit of terror. |
Glorious flattering cuts, very smart color choices, amazing accessories. Plus everythink looks more expensive than you could possibly afford. Unless you're a member of the Recchi clan. |
It's a dream gig with plot points or details focused on the clothes (the borrowed dress, modelling swimsuit, undergarments in the factory). She shares the bright cheerful temperament of the film. |
Absolute eye candy. Beadle, who knows from musicians, recreates iconic looks and fills out the rest with eye-popping period choices. Plus she gets that these are teenagers trying to be cool rock stars. |
These characters aren't fashionistas (with the exception of LaBeouf -- the fringe gives it away) but the looks are just right and memorable. Especially smart is that Mattie's clothes are too big for her. |
Finalists: Jenny Beavan did her usual period wonders for THE KING'S SPEECH and she even let Helena wear one of her own pairs of granny shoes | Jeffrey Kurland dressed up his dream invaders in sleek corporate espionage chic INCEPTION - and how great did Marion Cotillard look? | Mark Bridges made authetically no-budget 90s looks memorable and character specific in THE FIGHTER | Semi-Finalists: Michael Kaplan glammed and feathered and boa'ed the dolls in BURLESQUE | Colleen Atwood erred on the side of fussy (as is her wont) but her ALICE IN WONDERLAND's looks still show her absurd talent | Christine Clark works foam latex and actual lights into tech-heavy costumes in TRON LEGACY | Brenda Broer does very subtle costume work in CAIRO TIME that helps Patty Clarkson's gradual emotional flowering. That last gown is a lulu. |
