Catherine Martin has created some of the most fabulous and memorable images in modern film, together with her husband and creative collaborator Baz Luhrmann.

From the sequins and feathers of Strictly Ballroom, to Leo Di Caprio's Hawaiian shirt in Romeo and Juliet, and Nicole Kidman's red gown in Moulin Rouge, Catherine's designs are emblems of glamour and memory.

Recently she's immersed herself in the story of Elvis Presley for her and Baz's latest film.

Her work on the screen brings to technicolour life the entire world of Elvis, from the blues joints of Beale street, to the peacock stained glass windows of Graceland with its six metre sofa, and the iconic costumes of the King himself.

Catherine has won four Oscars for her costume and production design.

The seeds of her creativity were planted when she was a child in suburban Sydney, going to period costume fashion parades with her grandmother at the local Presbyterian church hall.
