Q&A with Academy Award winning costume designer Colleen Atwood about her work on Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland

From the grit and glamor of Chicago to the might and majesty of Memoirs of a Geisha, Academy Award winning costume designer Colleen Atwood has added depth and character to many of Hollywood's most recent hits with her inspired costume choices.

When the iconic blue dress adorned by the title heroine in Alice in Wonderland (out this week on DVD and Blu-Ray) landed on this captivating designer's drawing board, the opportunity to expand an age old image was too intriguing an opportunity to pass up. Rabid Nick Refer recently took part in a Q&A with the Oscar winner, talking Alice, Tim Burton, Johnny Depp and her inspirations.
