I haven't tried this yet, but I have heard good things about this site:
http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/

There is a tutorial here
http://webdesign.tutsplus.com/tutorials/htmlcss-tutorials/stepping-out-with-bootstrap-from-twitter/

Basically some people from twitter and elsewhere have put together a
package that can be used with django or elsewhere to make designing
html and css for webpages.

Since you are new to django, I would recommend you just get the most
basic site going.  You will stumble and learn a lot along the way.
After that you can dress it up
