In a setting straight out of a storybook, Electra Niarchos, the youngest member of Greece’s renowned Niarchos family, celebrated her 30th birthday with a lavish party at Scotland’s historic Barnbougle Castle—a night where tartan met tiaras, and old-world charm fused with modern glamour.
The evening’s standout guests? None other than the royal trio of Greece’s former royal family—Maria-Olympia, Alexios, and Achileas—who brought an unmistakable sparkle to the already magical celebration.
Electra, known for her effortless elegance, chose the 13th-century castle just outside Edinburgh for her milestone event, embracing a full-on Scottish theme. The result? A highland fête dripping in style, heritage, and aristocratic flair.
Fashion darling and influencer Maria-Olympia brought a playful twist to the evening’s dress code, donning a flirty tartan mini dress layered with soft tulle—bridging tradition with runway-worthy whimsy.
Her brothers, Alexios and Achileas, embraced the theme with classic Scottish kilts and tartan ensembles, channeling a contemporary take on royal tradition with undeniable charm.
Alexios, in particular, drew buzz online after posting a photo of the three siblings in full Highland regalia, sparking a wave of interest and momentarily putting Greece’s former royal family back in the society spotlight.
Set against the atmospheric backdrop of Barnbougle’s stone halls and windswept views of the Firth of Forth, the party was a seamless blend of heritage and haute couture—a regal rendezvous worthy of both history books and headlines.
