Nicole Kidman
Baz Luhrmann’s film Australia opened this week, and making shoes news is the collaboration between the films Oscar winning costume designer Catherine Martin and “Shoemaker to the Stars” Salvatore Ferragamo resulting in an exceptional collection of “beautiful, original shoes.”
Australia Ferragamo
In the film, Ms. Kidman plays “Lady Sarah Ashley,” a 1940s aristocrat who embarks upon an epic journey. More than 2,000 costumes were created for the film. And according to Philstar.com, “Martin approached Ferragamo to collaborate on the design of Lady Sarah’s shoes. As Martin says, “When you think of the 1930s one of the first names of shoes that comes to mind is Ferragamo. Ferragamo is synonymous with famous persons from the past and has a long association of making shoes for films and of revolutionizing certain styling and manufacturing techniques.”
Australia Ferragamo
“One of the quintessential Ferragamo traits is their confidence to mix often exotic materials with more luxurious fabrics; the showcasing of this trait and use of materials such as shagreen is a wonderful complement to the exoticism of Northern Australia during this period.”

The glamorous evening sandal, in ruched deep red velvet with stingray accents, is offered for sale as a limited-edition style at Ferragamo stores NOW. And once the style is sold out, the shoe will return to the company’s archives at the Salvatore Ferragamo museum at Palazzo Spini in Florence, Italy.
