The awards ceremony takes place at Greystone Mansion, which is a huge Tudor-style mansion once owned by the wealthy Doheny family, who made their money in oil.

Martin designed the Jazz Age costumes for "The Great Gatsby" film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and is up for an Academy Award for her work. The costumes were exquisite and rich as the characters who wore them.

Martin is no stranger to that little Oscar statuette. She won an Academy Award in 2001 for her rich costumes seen in "Moulin Rouge."

Other fashion icons inducted into the Beverly Hills Rodeo Drive Walk of Style include Georgio Armani, Tom Ford, Fred Hayman, Diana Vreeland and Donatella Versace.
