Style on screen

Cinema magic often comes from the brushes, scissors and stitches behind the camera. Hair and makeup teams create unforgettable looks – punk grit in Mad Max, neon exuberance in Starstruck! – while costume designers’ layer on sequinned sparkle in Strictly Ballroom and flamboyant couture in Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. This collection honours the creative artists whose craft made style as memorable as story. Behind the glamour lies the genius.
