Naomi Watts to be honoured with Lacoste Spotlight Award

Actress Naomi Watts will be honoured with the Lacoste Spotlight Award at this year's Costume Designers Guild Awards.

The announcement was made Tuesday, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

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 Feb 17 at a ceremony at the Beverly Hilton.
