The Selkie in Irish, Scottish and Scandinavian folklore is a woman of the ocean who lives inside of a seal's skin. If a man were to find her skin after she took it off to sunbathe she would be his wife. But if she were to find her skin again she would go back to the ocean, free. This was the founder, Kimberly Gordon's, favourite folklore tale growing up. To her the story represented a woman, any woman, finding and being comfortable with her own skin and being free in it and the brand has been modelled after these ideals. Selkie was founded in the fall of 2018 as a ready-to-wear brand for women who just wanted something 'fanciful, nostalgic and extremely romantic.'

SELKIE SPRING 2023 was added onto NYFW. The main theme was 'UNICORN.' The runway itself included a wide variety of body sizes and shapes, a multitude of ethnicities and ages and it also included those with disabilities onto the runway. In my opinion, it is a statement saying that anyone can be a model and the models themselves looked like they were actually enjoying themselves with big smiles and theatrics.

I'm glad that this runway and brand is gaining lots of traction because it is a brand which genuinely cares about the inclusivity of everyone.

The lead makeup artist was Danessa Myricks, and their talented friend Linh Nguyen was leading the hair. The show was styled by Alisha Silverstein with Kimberley Gordon and Justine Babb. It was produced by Emily Bungert and cast by Julia Samersova with Kimberley Gordon. 

Handbags, including pastels and original jewellery like effervescent unicorn crowns and butterfly bustiers, were made in collaboration with Stonehart for this specific runway.

That's all. Thank you for letting me rant on about a brand that really like.

See you soon,
