Our friend Joe Kucharski, the Editor of Tyranny of Style (which you should check out), has all of the details on the return of The Costume Designers Guild at San Diego Comic-Con this.
Attendees will be able to get a behind the scenes look at costume design from the experts, including designers for Star Trek: Beyond, Outlander, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel’s Agent Carter, Sueprgirl, The Strain, and many more.
