Always pushing her creativity, Arianne Phillips often takes breaks from
film to design theater, music videos, and concert tours, as well as
styling print work and cover shoots for fashion magazines like
ogue
Italia.
"It's kind of a path cleanser," she explains. "I've gone out of my
way to work across genres, so I can be choosy with the films I do." The
breadth and scope of her career is astonishing. "One project leads to
another, leads to another," says Phillips. This versatility has not gone
unrecognized. She has garnered eight nominations and a win from
the Costume Designers Guild Awards, in addition to nominations for
three Academy Awards, two BATAs, and a Tony. She will be honored
at the upcoming enice ilm estival with the Campari Passion for ilm
Award, which celebrates important artists who contribute significantly
to the success of a film. Phillips also wrote and directed a short fashion
film for Prada and styled a brand film for Gucci. She started out styling
Lenny Kravitz and collaborated with Madonna for over two decades.
She's uite the superstar herself.
