The Costume Society of America Fellow Honor is the highest honor bestowed by CSA. It recognizes the dedication, commitment, leadership, and outstanding contributions of CSA members to the CSA and to the field of costume. Candidates must have been a member of CSA for a minimum of 10 years, have worked professionally in the field of costume, have promoted the field of costume through scholarly output, and have, through their significant contributions, increased the visibility and reputation of the field of costume and of the CSA. Nominees will be evaluated by their significant service to and leadership of the CSA, significant and lasting contribution to the field of costume, and demonstrated excellence and innovation of professional work in the field of costume, including scholarly output. Each nomination requires a sponsor, or several people serving as co-sponsors. To nominate a candidate, sponsors must contact the potential nominee and secure their consent to be nominated. Then sponsors fill out the online submission form which includes a brief overview of how the sponsor knows the nominee, including in what capacity and how long; a brief statement of how the nominee meets the specific eligibility criteria, including specific contributions that led to the sponsor's support of the nominee; and a brief description of why the nominee deserves the designation of Fellow, including specific examples of exceptional service to and leadership of CSA and to the field of costume. Ten letters of support from CSA members are required, and optional additional letters of support from non-CSA members may also be submitted.
