Florence Klotz and William Ivey Long are probably my two favorite costume designers.
Wigs? Eh, I don't really pay attention, though I think Paul Huntley's work is quite exceptional

Posted: 7/26/07 at 4:52pmYou really should look into Klotz's work. She was exceptional. She did Follies, Showboat (with Hal Prince in '94, not the original), Kiss of the Spider Woman, Night Music, Pacific Overtures. I like her a little more than Ivey Long.

I think William Ivey Long will be a popular choice for costuming because while styles and preferences are up for debate, You simply cannot dispute is award-winning prowess. Also, I regard his designs to be the best ever.
