What Should Win: Cruella

No single film released this year, nominated or not, boasted costume design as creative and diverse as Cruella.

The movie wouldn't work if the title character's various outfits didn't make the eyes pop, but they're extremely memorable and a welcome change from the usual stuffy period fare that tends to dominate this field.

What Will Win: Cruella

Cruella probably has this in the bag, though Dune certainly has the potential to play the spoiler with Jacqueline West and Robert Morgan's otherworldly stylings.
