British culture can be as weird as it is wonderful, but arguably, that’s the beauty of it. In the third instalment of our Miss Jason’s Britain series, the Dazed 100 fashion reporter headed up to Edinburgh to do some on-the-ground reporting at the 2024 Crown and Dagger Ball.

If you’re unfamiliar, the fantasy ball draws inspiration from British royal history, with attendees invited to wear period dress which recalls the fashions of centuries gone by. Hosted within the College of Royal Physicians in Edinburgh, the event transported guests back in time to a fantasy world of opulence and grandeur.

Watch the video above to see Miss Jason get to grips with ballroom dancing and meet some of the guests at the 2024 Crown and Dagger Ball.
