The Costume Designers Guild Award for Excellence in Period/Fantasy Film was presented annually by the Costume Designers Guild from 1999 to 2004.
In 1998, the Guild introduced a single award category titled Excellence in Film, in which all films competed regardless of genre. Among the inaugural nominees, three were period dramas, while two, including the winner, Pleasantville, were fantasy films. Beginning with the 1999 ceremony, the Guild divided the award into two categories: Excellence in Contemporary Film and Excellence in Period/Fantasy Film. In 2005, the latter was further separated into two distinct categories: Excellence in Period Film and Excellence in Fantasy Film, each recognizing achievement within its respective genre.
