Sharen Davis already has two Academy Award nominations under her belt, but she may soon have the distinction of being the first costume designer to score an Oscar nod for creating the wardrobe in a Quentin Tarantino movie.

Among the characters Davis dressed in Django Unchained — a period western set in the deep south in 1858 — is Kerry Washington’s Broomhilda, the wife of title character Django (Jaime Foxx) who is sold to plantation owner Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).
