The award is the highest recognition given by BAFTA to an individual for their exceptional contribution to the film, games or television industry. Powell, who is the first costume designer to receive the Fellowship, has a three-and-a-half decade-long career that spans some of the most iconic films of the late 20th and 21st centuries.
“I am hugely flattered to receive the BAFTA Fellowship and especially proud to be the first Costume Designer,” Powell said. “I am lucky in that I love what I do and have been extremely fortunate to have collaborated with some of the most talented and inspirational people in the industry both behind and in front of the camera. I look forward to many more years to come.”
Many of the world’s most esteemed filmmakers worked with Powell to bring their script to life through costume, including Martin Scorsese, who has collaborated with her on six films, including “The Aviator,” which earned her a second Academy Award win. Actors she has worked with include Tilda Swinton, Cate Blanchett, Leonardo DiCaprio and Ralph Fiennes.
