'''Drest VII''' ([[Scottish language|Scottish Gaelic]]: ''Drust mac Talorgen'') was king of the [[Pictavia|Picts]] from c. [[780]] until [[781]]. He was of the House of [[House of Moray|Loarn]]. His son, [[Talorcen II of the Picts|Talorcen]], was probably his successor but the [[Pictish Chronicle]] does not list him in the chronology. If Talorcen did not succeed, the reign of Drest probably lasted another four years.
