Rooney Mara, Kate Beckinsale, Chloe Moretz and Penelope Ann Miller were among the guests who came out to celebrate costume design in TV and film at the 14th annual Costume Designers Guild Awards on Tuesday night at the Beverly Hilton.
“We are celebrating the spirit of collaboration between actors and costume designers,” said actress Jane Lynch, the mistress of ceremonies for the evening. She went on to talk about her experience on “Glee” with costume designer Lou Eyrich, who got her start way back when as a stylist for Manhattan Transfer.
“The first fitting, she gave me an off-the-rack Adidas track suit,” Lynch remembered. “She had ripped it apart. But I am so hard to fit, she just said, ‘We are going to have to make them for you.’ Now, I have 35 custom track suits in my wardrobe closet. And you won’t rip that track suit off my body until it goes into the Smithsonian.”
After being introduced by “Glee” creator Ryan Murphy, Eyrich was honored with a Career Achievement in Televison Award, as well as winning the award for Outstanding Contemporary TV Series, along with co-designer Jennifer Eve, for “Glee.”
“This job is like being handed a script, pushed off a cliff, and having to have the crew dressed and ready before you hit the ground,” Eyrich said in her acceptance speech.
