From 7th to 9th November, the Fife Arms in Braemar once again becomes the stage for the Festival of Fashion, a celebration of creativity, craftsmanship, and conversation in the heart of the Scottish Highlands.
Inspired by the legacy of fashion editor Frances Farquharson and couturier Elsa Schiaparelli, the festival brings together international designers, writers, and curators to explore fashion’s past, present, and future. This year’s programme features Clare Waight Keller, Kristina Blahnik, Erdem Moralıoğlu, Lydia Slater, Justine Picardie, and V&A Dundee among its distinguished guests.
An immersive celebration of creativity
Throughout the weekend, guests can enjoy a curated series of talks, performances, and dining experiences that celebrate fashion’s enduring dialogue with art and culture. The festival opens with a special Gala Dinner, curated by Michelin-starred chef Adam Byatt, paired with fine wines and live entertainment. It is a fitting beginning to a weekend dedicated to style and inspiration.
For the most immersive experience, guests can book The Fife Arms Festival of Fashion package, which includes two nights’ accommodation with breakfast, access to all festival events with reserved seating, and exclusive invitations to the opening cocktail reception and gala dinner. Each guest will also receive a festival gift bag on arrival.
