Picts and pork netting combine in 'unique' dress design
The Glasgow-based firm approached Heriot-Watt to commission a dress made from its meat netting, one of its most popular products sold across the UK and Europe. Also known as 'butcher's netting,' the synthetic material is used to keep the shape of roasts, pork loin, turkey breasts, beef roasts and other cuts of meat while they cook. Verna was one of six students to submit designs for the commission, but it was her incorporation of the culture of ancient Scotland and creativity that earned her the nod. The Picts lived in northern and eastern Scotland and, although they largely disappeared from historical records in the 9th century, their culture and symbolism continues to influence art and language. Verna Lai stitched together more than 60 metres of synthetic material to create her outfit. (Image: Heriot-Watt University) Verna said that working with a brand-new material required her to bring together everything that she has been learning over the course of her degree so far. 'It was a huge challenge but you never really learn if you don't challenge yourself. 'My outfit has a lot of Scottish cultural inspiration. I was looking at Pictish monograms, which are unique to Scotland, and was able to include them in my design using meat netting tubes. 'This impressed the company who wanted the heritage link but also seemed to like the techniques I would need to use in order to deliver the design.' She used roughly 60 metres of meat netting and a combination of hand and machine stitching to create the tank top, skirt, and cape. Verna's creation made an immediate splash internationally, serving as the showcase piece for Scobie and Junor in Frankfurt, Germany at the meat packaging industry's largest global trade fair. It took Verna only three weeks from design to completion, and she said she came away feeling proud of what was a daunting task. 'It was an incredible relief to hand over the ensemble once it was finished. 'After a couple of days, I started to feel really proud of what I had achieved in such a short space of time and to overcome so many challenges. 'I remember, for example, when I realised how difficult it was going to be using meat netting as a material, and for some of the outfit, I would need to hand stitch, taking up so much time when I also had to juggle my studies. 'I just cried. 'But then you see the garments come together and what I created pretty much was what I planned from the start. 'That's always the goal when you start to create something.' The design impressed Scobie and Junor representatives, who made it the centrepiece of their showcase at a global trade fair. (Image: Heriot-Watt University) Dr Daying Yang, Verna's supervisor and Assistant Professor in Fashion and Fashion Technology at the SOTD, said Verna demonstrated 'exceptional creativity, resilience, and technical skill, transforming an unconventional material into a fashion piece that is both cohesive and rich in cultural reference. 'Verna approached every challenge with determination and clarity of vision, applying the techniques she has learned with ingenuity and purpose. 'Her ability to reimagine a functional product like meat netting into meaningful and visually striking garments is a powerful example of what we aim to nurture at the School of Textiles and Design. 'I'm incredibly proud of what she has achieved.' Scobie and Junor marketing executive Simon Moorhouse said that Verna's design was exactly what the company was looking for when they commissioned a piece. 'This collaboration with Heriot-Watt University has been a brilliant opportunity to support emerging talent while reimagining our products in a completely new light. 'Seeing our meat netting transformed into a striking fashion piece has been both inspiring and thought-provoking. It's a testament to the creativity of the next generation of designers and a reminder that innovation often comes from the most unexpected places.' Following its international debut in Germany, Verna's dress will be displayed at the main entrance of Scobie and Junor's headquarters in Kilbride.

Why is Perth 'curiously underrated and overlooked'?
Perth's sheer accessibility has long been both a bane and a boon. Perthshire's capital is brilliantly connected – unlike Aberdeen, Dundee and Inverness, it is woven into Scotland's motorway network, it's a fulcrum for accessing the Highlands, and myriad trains converge here. There is even a Sleeper service to London. Perth is often curiously underrated and overlooked within Scotland, but outwith our borders others are quicker to see the charms of Sir Walter Scott's 'Fair City'. Perth was the first city in the UK awarded Cittaslow status in 2008, a nod to its civic promotion of wellbeing and quality of life, instead of development for development's sake. City status finally returned in 2012. (Image: Wirestock) Given the fantastic produce of the Perthshire hinterland it's no surprise Perth welcomed Scotland's first farmers' market and further foodie acclaim came with Perth being hailed 'Scotland's Food Town of the Year' in 2018. This clean, green city is also a 'Champion of Champions' in the Britain in Bloom competition. Rightmove even named Perth Scotland's happiest place (and the UK's fifth) in 2020. Perth's setting helps. The easily navigable and flat core sits right on the Tay, Scotland's longest river. Perth's original medieval walled plan is pretty much still intact, breaking off west of the river and neatly bookmarking the historic centre are the spacious civic parks of North Inch and South Inch. Local legend insists King James VI became so enraged with his soldiers enjoying the embryonic sport of golf here instead of practising their archery skills he had the sport that Scotland gave the world banned. At the heart of the city's current renaissance is the new Perth Museum, which sits right at the heart of Perth by St John's Kirk, which lends the city its other moniker of 'St John's Toun', a name adopted by its Premiership football team, who won both Scottish cups in 2021. It was here John Knox fired his congregation into such a frenzy in 1559 they trashed the kirk and went on a rampage, sacking the local monasteries, as the flames of the Scottish Reformation ignited. The centrepiece of the £27 million Museum is, of course, that stone. To be fair they turn the potentially prosaic visit to a featureless lump of sandstone into quite a show, and there is real depth beyond the Stone of Destiny too. You sweep from prehistoric Perthshire settlers to worlds when Pictish kings made their power grabs, Viking longships marauded on the Tay and Roman legionnaires were sent hame tae think again. (Image: Robin McKelvie) A current highlight at Perth Museum is a temporary exhibition – which opened on April 25 – that takes a deep dive into Scotland's most notorious monarch, aiming to explore the real stories beyond the myths of Macbeth. You can follow Macbeth's trail around Perthshire, with a yew and oak on the banks of the Tay at Dunkeld the remnants of the ancient Birnham Wood that would have stood when Shakespeare visited in 1599 as he toured with a troop of actors performing their play. You can yomp up Dunsinane Hill too, though you'll be waiting a while on Birnham Wood marching here as it is long gone. At least you have until August 31 to visit the exhibition. More culture beckons at Perth Concert Hall and Perth Art Gallery. The gallery has been beefed up with the arrival of the collection of Scottish colourist John Duncan Fergusson (1874–1961), which moved from its standalone gallery just before the Perth Museum opened. You learn of his links with Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Picasso. Margaret Morris, his accompanied dancer and choreographer wife, is given a welcome stronger voice here too. The museum and gallery are worth visiting Perth for alone, but don't make the mistake of leaving straight after. Instead amble to the Watergate on the Tay, a quayside once alive with traders, clambering with the languages of the Low Countries and various Baltic brogues. French claret and Spanish silk swept in; the same ships leaving again laden with drams and fish. Keep an eye out for our furry friends from the riverside walkway as Perth in 2021 welcomed the UK's first city beavers in centuries. (Image: North Port Perth) On George Street there is evidence of a city bounce that can only have been helped by the museum opening. The Bean Shop is a zeitgeist-pleasing artisan coffee roasters who supply Perth Museum's cafe with a dedicated 'Destiny' blend. The quality artisan vibe continues at the Perth Distillery. The Scottish Gin Awards Gold Medal-winning Perth Pink, which makes the most of Perthshire's famed raspberries, is the star of the show. If you want to savour a real show head out with History and Horror Tours for a ghostly exploration of nocturnal Perth. Staff-carrying storyteller Gary Knight, who has written books on Perth, weaves a rich and colourful narrative that doesn't need jump scares to entertain as you learn about this multifaced city and its engaging history. A highlight is exclusive night access to the Sixteenth- Century Blackfriars Graveyard. Outdoor Explore offers a tour of a totally different nature as they eke you out on to the Tay in a kayak in search of 'Perth's Wildlife Big Five', including those beavers and their dams. Perth makes most sense from the water as you appreciate how it grew as the highest navigable point on the Tay. This is a city deeply connected both to its history and the glorious Perthshire countryside that unfurls all around. And Perth is definitely not a city you should just flash by on the A9. Bed down in Perth Mercure Perth Hotel Not many hotels boast a waterwheel churning its way through reception. The Mercure Perth Hotel does and it's no tacky addition but part of the old lade network that used to power Perth. The hotel has won an award for how skilfully it has preserved its old mill heritage and woven a modern, comfortable hotel around it. Very Perth. It has a handy central location too and is close to the famous Simon Howie butchers so you can nab goodies to take home as you leave. Parklands Hotel Perth's Lord Provost used to preside over the city from this stately old stone dame overlooking South Inch Park. There are only 15 bedrooms in a four star that feels both intimate and relaxed. They have the No1 The Bank Bistro and the beer garden terrace is a great space on a sunny day. Murrayshall Sleep in the shadows of Scottish Royalty close to Scone Palace. The owners have equally lofty ambitions, aiming to rival Gleneagles. A sweep of eating and drinking options, golf and spa facilities echo their Perthshire hotel sibling. It's only a short drive from Perth but has a real countryside vibe with easy access to local walks too.

Perth Museum Macbeth exhibition puts Perthshire front and centre
Perthshire and its people take centre stage in the new Macbeth exhibition at Perth Museum. Shakespeare's flawed hero might get star billing. But much of the display space is given over to the real-life Macbeth, the Alba he reigned over, and the Scotland of Shakespeare's time. Exhibits range from an 11th century sword to a Birnam Oak seedling, which might one day become part of a restored Birnam Wood. And the reality behind Macbeth's famous witches is explored in chilling stories from the Perthshire witch trials. Shakespeare wrote Macbeth to appeal to the nature of his monarch, King James VI of Scotland and I of England, who was obsessed with superstition and witchcraft. And the treatment being meted out to innocent women and men accused of witchcraft at that time is as gory as anything in 'the Scottish play'. The names of dozens of local victims are written on the walls around the exhibition. Exhibitions officer David Freeburn says the story of Macbeth is rooted in this area, and the new home of the Stone of Destiny is the perfect place to tell it. 'We're really keen to tell stories that are worldwide and local,' he said. 'And there is so much about this one that really places it here.' A map on one wall pinpoints local locations with links to Macbeth. They include Dunkeld Cathedral – mentioned in the play as Duncan's seat of power. The nearby Birnam Oak is thought to be the last survivor of the moving forest foretold by the Weird Sisters in Macbeth. And Moot Hill at Scone was the place where kings were made since Pictish times. Dunsinane Hill, Glamis Castle and Loch Leven Priory all share connections with Macbeth too. Perth Museum curators hope visitors to the exhibition will be encouraged to go on and explore the wider area. Other highlights of Macbeth: An Exhibition include tributes to famous Macbeths, such as Orson Welles and Sir Ian McKellen, and costumes from the 2015 Hollywood film starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard. And among the rarest treasures is an original copy of William Shakespeare's First Folio on loan from the National Library of Scotland. Macbeth: An Exhibition opens today, April 25, and runs to August 31. Tickets can be bought at the museum or booked in advance through Perthshire Box Office. The museum is open daily from 10am. Entry to the permanent galleries and the Stone of Destiny exhibit is free.

7 unmissable destinations to explore in Fife
Just north of Edinburgh, across the Firth of Forth, lies Fife — an ancient kingdom known for its royal history, iconic bridges and dramatic coastal scenery. The name 'Kingdom of Fife' comes from the region's past status as a major Pictish kingdom, then called Fib. Today, Fife's historic landscapes are bursting with opportunities for exploration — from picturesque fishing villages with top-notch seafood to a vibrant arts scene that's easy to explore on a public art trail. Fife is also rightly famed for being the 'home of golf', where the sport was first played 600 years ago. Wondering where to start? These seven destinations showcase the variety and vibrancy of Fife. For exploring Scottish historyDunfermline, the 'ancient capital of Scotland', was once the seat of the Scottish Stuart monarchs, who ruled Britain from 1603 to 1714. With its impressive palace ruins and medieval streets, the city makes an ideal break for history buffs. Peel the centuries back at Dunfermline Abbey and Palace, the final resting place of King Robert the Bruce and seven other Scottish kings. Or, discover the legacy of one of the most famous Scots of the 19th century, Andrew Carnegie, who was born in Dunfermline. His childhood home, now open to the public as the Andrew Carnegie Birthplace Museum, offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of this renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist. In 2022, Dunfermline was officially granted city status as part of Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee Civic Honours. King Charles III and Queen Camilla visited Dunfermline to mark the occasion, bringing a renewed energy to the city's history-filled streets. For playing world-class golfLocated on the east coast of Fife, St Andrews is an unmissable pilgrimage for anyone with an interest in golf. Stroll up the 18th on the world-famous Old Course in the shadows of the historic Royal and Ancient Clubhouse and you'll find yourself in the company of the golfing greats who forged their legacies here. Dating back 600 years, the Old Course is the star, but St Andrews Links Trust owns and operates a further six golf courses, all of which are open to the public. To learn more about the history of the region, visit St Andrews Cathedral, home to the 33-metre tall St Rule's Tower, which dates back to the 11th century, or explore the ruins of St Andrews Castle, with its underground mine and bottle dungeon. In the Middle Ages, St Andrews was also a key pilgrimage destination; the town was revered for being home to the relics of St Andrew, one of Jesus' disciples. Today, travellers can follow in the footsteps of medieval pilgrims on the 64-mile Fife Pilgrim Way, starting at Culross or North Queensferry and ending just outside St Andrews Cathedral. For relaxing on sandy beachesTake one look at famed local artist Jack Vettriano's The Singing Butler painting and you'll immediately be yearning to stroll along Leven's beaches, breathing in this laid-back resort's fresh sea air. Sitting on the coast of the Firth of Forth, at the mouth of the River Leven, the town is home to clean, sweeping sands that stretch on for miles, as well as epic views across the Forth. Mix in welcoming cafes, amusement arcades and first-rate fish and chips, and you'll see the romance and nostalgia of the classic British seaside escape is alive and well in Leven. The return of the Levenmouth rail line in 2024 means it is now possible to reach Leven from Edinburgh in just over an hour. For discovering Scotch whiskyFife is enjoying a glorious whisky renaissance — from Kingsbarns Distillery in beautiful East Neuk, which sits in an 18th-century converted farm steading, to Eden Mill on the banks of the Eden Estuary, which is set to open its new distillery in 2025. Distilling in Fife has deep roots: Lindores Abbey Distillery, which opened in 2017 as the 'Spiritual Home of Scotch Whisky', sits next to the ancient Lindores Abbey, whose monks created an early incarnation of whisky, their famed 'aqua vitae', as far back as the 15th century. Whisky production at Lindores remains ultra-local, with Fife barley used to create its excellent malts. Enjoy a tour and a dram here, and don't miss the evocative abbey ruins. Nearby, The Hide is a BBQ cabin sitting on top of Lindores Hill that is available to hire out for a special dining experience. Indulge in a tasting menu with whisky and wine pairings or bring your own food and drinks to enjoy while taking in the panoramic views across the River Tay, Perthshire, Angus and Fife. For marvelling at iconic bridgesIn the small village of North Queensferry, you'll find a rare feat of engineering: three architecturally significant bridges from three successive centuries sitting in close proximity. The UNESCO World Heritage Listed Forth Bridge, one of the world's first major steel structures, opened here in 1890, connecting the historic settlements of North and South Queensferry. The Forth Road Bridge, also spanning the Forth, was the largest suspension bridge in the world outside North America when it opened in 1964. In 2017, these bridges were joined by the Queensferry Crossing, the longest three-tower, cable-stayed bridge in the world. Standing below these mighty structures on the shores of North Queensferry will take your breath away. Alongside these impressive bridges, you'll also find the North Queensferry Harbour Light Tower — the smallest working light tower in the world. Climb the 24 stairs to reach the lamp and discover how the tower's distinct signalling system worked. For sampling local foods and drinksThe scenic villages, towns and farmland of the East Neuk provide some of Scotland's finest produce. Seafood is the star, especially in postcard-perfect fishing communities like Pittenweem and Anstruther. The latter boasts award-winning fish and chip shops, including Anstruther Fish Bar and The Wee Chippy. The local langoustines and lobster are standout, too, and can be enjoyed at waterfront restaurants such as Craig Millar @ 16 West End and East Pier Smokehouse. Away from the coast, the East Neuk hinterland is home to many spots at which to sample delicious beef and lamb, while the St Andrews Farmhouse Cheese Company in Pittenweem is the place to try award-winning Anster cheese. For local drinks, visit Futtle in St Monans, an excellent organic brewery, bar and bottle shop. For spotting public artworksThe Fife Art Trail weaves together a swathe of vibrant outdoor artworks located across Fife. In Cowdenbeath, local artist Kerry Wilson has brought the high street alive with striking painted murals that tie into the town's eclectic stories. Her first mural for the town features a young boy wearing a miner's helmet and a pair of oversized boots — a tribute to the town's mining heritage. Sweeping further east there's a dedicated Glenrothes Town Art trail with over 100 artworks — from prominent sculptures and large-scale murals to small works of art hidden across the town. Fife has long drawn artists to its distinctive landscapes, and the Fife Art Trail is an ideal way to tap into its rich creative culture. This paid content article was created for Welcome to Fife.
