The Hollywood Reporter recently rolled out the list of winners at the Creative Arts Emmy. Wednesday has won the award under the category of Outstanding Contemporary Costumes for a Series. The Netflix drama has beaten shows like Emily in Paris, which featured the iconic style that people flaunt on the streets of the city of love.
Colleen Atwood, the legendary costume designer known for her work on films like The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, brought Wednesday’s signature style to life with a blend of classic Addams family elements and fresh, modern touches. From the iconic black dress with white collar and cuffs to the pinstriped suit and combat boots, they meticulously crafted every outfit to tell a story about the character’s personality and inner world.
The costumes seamlessly intertwined with the show’s gothic atmosphere, adding layers of depth and visual richness to each scene. Now the hard work this designer did along with the actors has finally paid off. However, this was not the only award this beloved series took home from this prestigious event.

Wednesday also took home the title of Outstanding Contemporary Makeup (Non-Prosthetic) at the Emmys. The makeup team of the show included Tara McDonald, Freda Ellis, Nirvana Jalalvand, Tamara Meade, and Bianca Boeroiu. They pushed back massively famous shows like The Last Of Us, Star Trek: Picard, and American Horror Stories.
This might have not come as a surprise for fans, considering the show has been making waves since its arrival. It has already dethroned the highly acclaimed gem of the streamer Stranger Things from its crown. Now the comedy-drama has finally made it big at the Emmys, proving its impact on the hearts of fans and the beauty industry as well.
