This year, the Television Academy has instituted new rules for the Outstanding Costume Design nominees. In the past, separate awards were given in two categories, series and miniseries/movie.
This year, two statuettes will be awarded, but they will honor contemporary costumes and period/fantasy costumes, regardless of the format of the show.
The new rules make it easier for the Academy to recognize contemporary costumes, which were often shut out by period pieces in both of the old categories. Thus, The Mindy Project will compete against Gotham but not Wolf Hall, set in the sixteenth century.
