Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin Launch Celia Dining Carriage on Belmond British Pullman
On Saturday night, a glamorous assembly that included Roger and Mirka Federer, Tom Ford, Stella McCartney, Emma Corrin, and Alexa Chung boarded the Belmond British Pullman train at London Victoria Station for the debut of Celia, a new private dining and events carriage crafted by Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin. The soirée, co-hosted by Anna Wintour, Vogue's global editorial director, occurred shortly after the 2026 Met Gala, which Luhrmann and Martin also played a role in organizing. Guests sipped cocktails in the Celia carriage, where Martin, dressed in a marabou-sleeved Prada ensemble, poured Champagne from Waterford crystal coupes. A dinner featuring Isle of Wight tomato tart and beef Wellington was served as the train traversed the Kent Downs. Luhrmann, donned in a Bode suit with braided lapels, mingled throughout the night. After dessert, attendees danced to disco hits beneath pastel-lit ceilings before heading to Mark's Club on Berkeley Square for more celebrations. Many guests wondered when they might have the chance to experience Celia again.
