About The COSTUME DESIGNERS GUILD | I.A.T.S.E. LOCAL 892
The COSTUME DESIGNERS GUILD aspires to raise the stature of the Costume Design
profession within the entertainment community commensurate with the incalculable contribution Costume Designers make to each motion picture, television, or commercial,illuminating the characters with accuracy and integrity,thereby enhancing the story.
The Costume Designers Guild was founded in 1953 by a group of 30 passionate motion picture Costume Designers who found strength in joining forces, responding to the changing needs of the motion picture industry. Today its membership includes approximately 750 Costume Designers, Assistant Costume Designers, and Ilustrators working throughout the world in every kind of moving picture including motion picture, television, animation, commercials, and music
video.
Approximately 500 members live in the greater Los Angeles Area. From 1953 to 1976, at the close of the “Golden Age” of Hollywood, the Guild functioned as an independent organization, promoting costume designers and negotiating independent contracts with the major studios to protect members with a minimum wage and health plan as the transition was made from studio employee to freelance designer.
