The French fashion house used the array of high quality plants for their Cruise 2025 show at Dunblane Castle Gardens last month.
Community groups across Perth and Kinross have benefited from the recent star-studded Dior fashion show in Crieff after the fashion house donated around £150,000 worth of plants to the local area.
The Cruise 2025 show featuring designs by Maria Grazia Chiuri is the first time the global fashion house has returned to Scotland in 70 years, having previously chosen Perthshire’s Gleneagles as the location for its 1955 show. The plants were picked up by council vehicles and taken to Westbank Nursery in Perth, then offered to local In Bloom groups and charities for planting in communities. In additional to community groups, local organisations to benefit include Rachel House in Kinross, a local women’s refuge in Perth, the Walled Garden at Murray Royal and a few local cemeteries.
