Description

The CSA Mary D. Doering Guardian Honor recognizes the legacy of Mary Doering and others like her who recognize the values of artistic, historical, and socially significant objects of dress and appearance. These artifact guardians take on the charge of giving extant objects special care and consideration, and work to preserve them. Each nomination requires a sponsor, or several people serving as co-sponsors; the nominating sponsor must be a member of the Costume Society of America. To nominate a candidate, sponsors must contact the potential nominee and secure his or her consent to be nominated. Then, by October 15, 2026, sponsors must submit an official nomination letter, including a statement from each sponsor if more than one. The Costume Society of America Mary D. Doering Guardian Honor Committee Chair verifies the eligibility of each nominee and notifies the sponsor(s). Sponsors of eligible nominees are then responsible for assembling the nominating packet, to be submitted by November 15, 2026, that will be supplied to the sponsors. Nomination packets must include the sponsor(s) letter of support, which serves as a cover letter; the nominee's resume or C.V.; a list of the supporters whose letters are included; a summary of highlights mentioned in the supporting letters; three letters of support from CSA members, and optional additional letters of support from non-CSA members; a brief overview of how the supporter knows the nominee, including in what capacity and how long; and a brief description of why the nominee deserves the honor, including specific examples of contributions to the field of fashion history and dress studies and long-term efforts in studying and working with collections, conservation. Please visit the award's website or contact the Costume Society of America for more information.
