 A distinguished designer of the 1980s and 1990s, Sandy Powell specialises in detailed period dress from various eras of British history, from the 16th (Shakespeare In Love, d. John Madden, 1998, an Oscar) to the 20th century (Velvet Goldmine, d. Todd Haynes, 1998, a BAFTA). Her attention to detail and historical accuracy is evident in such varied work as Caravaggio (d. Derek Jarman, 1986), Edward II (d. Jarman, 1991), Orlando (UK/France/Italy/Netherlands/Russia, d. Sally Potter, 1992), Wittgenstein (d. Jarman, 1993), The Wings of the Dove (UK/US, d. Iain Softley, 1997), Hilary and Jackie (d. Anand Tucker, 1998), and The End of the Affair (UK/Germany/US, d. Neil Jordan, 1999). Fiona Clark, Encyclopedia of British Film
