The Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of Film and Television Costume Design

The second volume in The Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of Film and Television Costume Design features short profiles on almost 500 individual costume designers whose creative contributions have shaped global cinema, ignited fashion trends, and become icons of popular culture, documenting their centrality to every film and television production. Universal and inclusive in scope, with designers for productions as wide-ranging as Mexican telenovelas and Bollywood musicals, early silent film through streaming series, Volume 2 features the biographies of lesser-known costume designers along with their more famous award-winning peers. Under-represented within both fashion and film literature, and largely uncredited, costume designers, whose efforts are often hidden in plain sight but who have nevertheless had a profound influence on fashion, entertainment and culture are here acknowledged and celebrated for the first time.
