The Dior Cruise 2025 collection by Maria Grazia Chiuri is a love letter to Scotland’s layered heritage, pulling together influences that blend tradition with a modern edge. Photographed by Brigitte Niedermair, the campaign captures the raw and natural beauty of the Scottish landscape, channeling the rebellious energy of Mary Stuart. Chiuri’s vision stands somewhere between gothic romance and punk defiance, combining light and shadow in a setting that feels both opulent and organic.
Taffeta ball skirts and lavish trains nod to the Renaissance, while intricate embroidery gives the collection its depth. The classic kilt makes its mark, paired with tailored blazers and tartan-heavy jackets and trousers. D-Fight boots give a tough edge to the looks, and cinched leather belts bring definition, while Lady Dior and New Bobby bags add that quintessential touch.
It’s a collection about strength and freedom—an ode to Dior’s timeless rebellious spirit.
