Sustainable Fashion with Gray’s School of Art Aberdeen

We are delighted to be part of the Sustainable Fashion project, created in partnership with Gray’s School of Art Aberdeen. The project produces each year garments designed by Gray’s first-year fashion students who have been inspired by the castle, its history, its landscape, and the influences of its most fashionable occupant, France Farquharson, and her Friend Elsa Schiaparelli. In 2023 we were fortunate to be part of the Fife Arms Festival of Fashion, where the students were able to meet British fashion designer Giles Deacon and talk to him about their creative process.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went during February half term and still had it to ourselves. It’s closed for tours at this time of year but you can still access the grounds. Car park next to the gate. Short walk from car park to castle doors. Some information around the grounds including audio. Being covered in snow just makes it more magical and is the reason we go so Buster can run around and play. Car park was a little slippy but take care and you’ll be fine.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Le château était très beau à voir, il est entièrement rénové et est très propre. Nous ne sommes arrêtés que sur le parking (payant pour 3£) et avons fait le tour du château en extérieur (qui lui est gratuit). Nous n’avons pas fait la visite à cause du prix mais le personnel était très gentil et agréable sur place !

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was a nice surprise. We did not plan to visit it but you cannot miss it from the road. The tour is about 30mn , but you can easily spent 1h. You will find a lot of history details about Scotland, and the clan living here. I loved the room about the clan with all the weapons and rocks.
