Actress

Watts
will
be
honoured
with
the
Lacoste
Spotlight
Award
at
this
year's
Costume
Designers
Guild
Awards.
The
announcement
was
made
on
Tuesday.
According
to
a
release,
the
award
"honours
an
actor
whose
talent
and
career
personify
an
enduring
commitment
to
excellence,
including
a
special
awareness
of
the
role
and
importance
of
costume
design."
From
her
recent
role
as
a
pregnant
Russian
stripper
in
"St.
Vincent" to
playing
a
Broadway
actress
in
the
Oscar-nominated
film
"Birdman",
Watts
has
proved
her
calibre-
both
for
her
acting
skills
as
well
as
her
style
sense.
The
Guild,
which
announced
its
nominations
earlier
this
month,
will
also
present
honorary
awards
to
"Boyhood" writer-director
Richard
Linklater,
costume
designer
Aggie
Guerard
Rodgers
and
designer
and
scholar
Deborah
Nadoolman
Landis
during
the
ceremony.
The
actress
will
receive
the
award
next
month,
on
Feb
17
at
a
ceremony
at
the
Beverly
Hilton.
Two
days
back,
Naomi
Watts
graciously
collected
her
accolade
for
Best
Global
Actress
in
Motion
Pictures
at
China's
15th
Huading
Awards
in
Macau
on
Sunday.
The
Australian
actress
and
mother
of
two
recently
revealed
that
she
wanted
to
give
up
acting
sometime
back.
Naomi
Watts
told
British
InStyle
magazine's
February
issue
that
there
have
been
times
throughout
her
career
when
she
considered
giving
up
acting.
