The compacted awards season has seen an almost a nightly cavalcade of awards shows this month. Tonight, in a ceremony hosted by Mindy Kailing, the Costume Designers Guild Awards honored the best in costumes in film, television and commercials. The big winners of the night were Jenny Egan in the Contemporary Film category for “Knives Out” and Mayes C. Rubeo in the Period Film category for “Jojo Rabbit.” It’s worth noting that Oscar nominee and potential winner “Little Women’s” Jacqueline Durran, was not nominated by her peers in the latter category.
