Much like the race for Best Production Design, Wicked has dominated the battle for Best Costume Design this season. Barring a huge shock, it will undoubtedly collect both Oscars. With wins at the BAFTAs, the Critics Choice Awards, and with the Costume Designers Guild, Paul Tazewell is all but certain to become the first African American male to win this category. Is there any sniff of a potential upset for another contender? No.
