DIOR CRUISE 2025 x SORBET

A Dance Through the Highlands


Shot & directed by Shimmy in collaboration with photographer Jemima Marriott, this atmospheric short film traces the poetic inspiration behind the Dior Resort 2025 collection. Set against the wild beauty of heritage sites, the film weaves fashion, history, and nature into a visual ode to the Highlands. Captured with a minimal crew and a spirit of creative flow, this piece reflects the seamless harmony between photographer, director, model and crew - on a truly magical shoot day.
