Washington, Dec 16 (UNI) Actor Kate Hudson is set to be honoured with the prestigious Costume Designers Guild (CDG) Spotlight Award, which recognises performers whose careers demonstrate a lasting commitment to excellence and a deep appreciation for the pivotal role of costume design in storytelling, Variety reported.
The Spotlight Award celebrates actors who value costume designers as essential collaborators in bringing memorable screen characters to life. Past recipients include Amy Adams, Angela Bassett, Annette Bening, Halle Berry, Cate Blanchett, Glenn Close, Andrew Garfield, Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron, Kerry Washington, Naomi Watts, and most recently, Zoe Saldana.
Reacting to the news, Hudson said, “Being honoured by the Costume Designers Guild with the Spotlight Award is so special and meaningful to me. Throughout my career, costume designers have been such incredible collaborators, helping to create authentic, powerful, indelible characters.”
Hudson reflected on her work with some of the industry’s most celebrated designers, “From the beginning of my career, I’ve been so fortunate to work with such incredible artists as Betsy Heimann on ‘Almost Famous,’ Karen Patch on ‘How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days,’ and so many others. In ‘Song Sung Blue,’ Ernesto Martinez captured the true essence of Claire, as a performer and working single mother. Costume designers are true storytellers, and I am constantly inspired by the artistry, intention, and heart they bring to every character.”
Hudson is currently starring alongside Hugh Jackman in Craig Brewer’s musical drama Song Sung Blue, produced by Focus Features.
In addition, the Costume Designers Guild has announced nominations for the 28th Costume Designers Guild Awards (CDGA), with films such as One Battle After Another, Sinners, Weapons, Avatar: Fire and Ash, and Bugonia among the nominees.
