Pattern Perfect: Catherine Martin For Mokum

Catherine Martin, the über-talented personal and professional partner to film director, screenwriter and producer Baz Luhrmann has a résumé that includes some of my favorite of favorites; Moulin Rouge, Romeo + Juliet and Strictly Ballroom, not to mention The Great Gatsby, (opening in May), for which I simply cannot wait.  The costumes... the jewels... well... that's all there is to say about that.

Aside from her myriad other projects across a varied creative spectrum, what I'm so loving right now are her textiles for Mokum.  Touched with the same magic wand of fantasy that gilds all her work, these perfect patterns are fairy tales come to life.









About The Catherine Martin Collection For Mokum
(from the website)

Australia is the first collection from the collaboration of Hollywood production and costume designer Catherine Martin and Mokum.

This collection, featuring highly decorative and intricate patterns, encapsulates a passion for Catherine's native country and its indigenous flora and fauna. The designs came out of an intense interest in Australiana, sparked in part by her extensive research for the design of Baz Luhrmann’s blockbuster film Australia.
