selkie. sel·kie. also sil·kie. noun.
A creature or spirit in Scottish and Irish folklore that has the form of a seal but can also assume human form. Alternative forms[edit] saelkie, selky, seilkie, sejlki, shelky, silkey, silkie, sulky
A typical folk-tale is that of a man who steals a female selkie's skin, finds her naked on the sea shore, and compels her to become his wife. But the wife will spend her time in captivity longing for the sea, her true home, and will often be seen gazing longingly at the ocean. Once she discovers her skin, she will immediately return to the sea.
Filled with color, exuberance and power, this collection is for the Selkie women everywhere, setting themselves free.
The Baby Banana Puff Dress
Selkie
BEFORE YOU BUY; PLEASE MEASURE YOUR BUST AND COMPARE BELOW! This dress is based on BUST ONLY, like a bra. It is essentially a bando. The arms are roomy and there is no waist. Please do not order without taking the time to check it against your current bra size, or for a guaranteed fit- measure! If you are in between sizes, size down.
Banana splits, banana milkshakes, banana sweets... banana everything! Transform into your favourite dessert, float through parties like a fluffy little milkshake.
Everywhere you go people will stop you to compliment this little piece of heaven! Inspired by the color of the inside of a banana peel, the banana fruit, you'll feel truly edible in this deliciously poofy girl. She's one you will hand down forever. Incredibly flattering with a tight bust and forgiving skirt, the puff sleeves give the body a beautiful shape. The Claudia collection comes trimmed with delicate lace on the bust and sleeves.
"How do I wear it if I don't want the shear bust?" We recommend pairing it with a sexy baby yellow bra like this one over a nude top or tube dress.
Or wear it bra less and free the nipple!!
These go fast so snap it up while you can!
PLEASE BUY SIZE BASED ONLY ON YOUR BUST/BRA, under bust and across combined. If you are in between sizes match it as closely to the under bust. Sizing down will give you a tight corset look, sizing up will give you a looser look like below model.
(Sometimes it may feel the dress is too small, please try to zip the dress while around your waist then pull over your chest. If it fits but is still too tight you may need to size up one.)

Memories
I grew up in the UK until I was near 11, and my 80s toys, along with the scent of strawberry plastic, resurface here. Barbie, Cindy and My Little Ponies are scattered through happy memories just as years ago they lay scattered over the living room floor of our family home. When I look at Collection 10, I can feel my young, doll dresser self at the toy shop, tugging at my mother's clothes, quietly begging, Please, Mummy, please pleeeease can we buy it? Woven into the Collection is a trip through memory to the edge of my teens. I looked forward to weekends and the chance to spend all day in costume, and nights curled up on my little bed next to my little brother on his, snuggled under my Monet-inspired pastel twin blanket with a Judy Blume book, then falling asleep to the sound of my dad snoring in the next room.

Love Fool Capsule N° 10
I believe in daring declarations. They display confidence and strength. Culture often teaches that the feminine role and form should be small, should take up less space, be thinner and quieter, follow the rules, and suffer without complaint. Selkie invites everyone to break free of this burden and ignite a feeling of power not just in love, but in everything we go for! This Valentine's Day, do something bold Don't be held back by embarrassment. Challenge yourself. No more holding back. Has there ever been a more appropriate time to blast love songs under a certain someone's window or shout out to other singles and be your own Valentine?

Mile High Club
I was flying before covid and I remember with such distinction watching the blue skies from that familiar thick plastic oval window, relishing that we were speeding through the blue at 38,000 feet. Looking out I wished I could climb into that peaceful scene and lay inside those fluffy white clouds. Ah, to become part of that sky, a luxurious and impossible dream. Maybe not so impossible, maybe a dress instead?
