Fashion
Last week noticed Anya Taylor-Joy, Jennifer Lawrence and Rosamund Pike descending on Drummond Castle in Perthshire, Scotland, for a fashion extravaganza the likes of which has not been seen since 1955. Dior’s cruise 2025 show, which nodded to Scotland’s sartorial heritage via tartan, leather-based, kilts and tweeds. Dubbed the “Versailles of Scotland”, the venue was a fitting location to pay homage to France and Scotland’s historic alliance , with a parade of pipers closing proceedings. Outside of the continent, a selection of events are shining a spotlight on African design, craftsmanship and textiles. Italy’s Afro Fashion Week Milano, which takes place alongside Milan Fashion Week, offers an international platform for rising African, Afro-descendent and Afro-inspired designers. In Paris, the African Fashion Up initiative, launched by digital content material platform Share Africa, has launched an incubator programme, backed by the likes of Balenciaga and Galeries Lafayette.
