The Costume Designers Guild announced that Kerry Washington will be honored with the Spotlight Award at the 20th Costume Designers Guild Awards.
Hosted by Gina Rodriguez, the CDGA will take place on Tuesday, February 20, at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
As told to Harper’s BAZAAR, a sponsor of this year’s event, Washington stated, “In my seven seasons of playing Olivia Pope on Scandal, I have had the blessing of working with the remarkable Lyn Paolo to create a character whose internal strength and strong sense of conviction are so effortlessly reflected in the clothing that she wears. Being honored by the CDGA this year with the Spotlight Award is a fitting culmination for our time together, and I look forward to celebrating our collaboration on this special night.”
