MAJESTIC SCOTLAND

A poetic, bucolic invitation to the meeting of past and future, celebrating the unique, powerful ties forged from the very beginnings of the Maison, for the autumn-winter 1947 collection. Christian Dior named an emblematic haute couture ensemble Écosse. These affinities were further strengthened at a sumptuous défilé followed by a ball orchestrated at the Gleneagles Hotel, where the founding-couturier presented models from spring-summer 1955.

All odes to the beauty of travel and culture, reinvented in this cruise 2025 line, symbolizing the Franco-Scottish creative dialogue that has spanned eras and fashions.

“The close connection between France and Scotland goes back to the Auld Alliance, the treaty of mutual support made between the two countries in the 13th century. It established a dynamic cultural exchange, which was maintained over the following centuries. Many of the Scottish elite, and the Scottish clergy, were educated in France, and the finesse and flamboyance of French fashion, architectural design and celebratory festivities was introduced to Scotland.” (Clare Hunter, author of Embroidering Her Truth: Mary, Queen of Scots and the Language of Power*, which is at the heart of Maria Grazia Chiuri's inspirations)
