Costume and Dressing, and editor are the credits I pay attention to.
I run a vintage clothing shoppe and the most valuable thing I tell new staff/clients are to watch more classic film. It's free resource ultimately. Topical and always illustrates the most popular fashion for the time for both men and ladies.
I remember watching an film with a new friend and commenting on who did the costumes. He as a classic film lover noticed the cinematographers name more, never thinking of costume designers. It cemented the fact that we shared this same love of cinema and he learned the traits to costume designers now as I have with traits of amazing camera craft.
