Our beloved Ritz Gown is now available in the Water Lilies print, which is made from the immersive beauty of light on tranquil water captured in Claude Monet's paintings. This is a true collectors’ item—made from 100% silk, the gauzy texture feels and looks so beautiful, and lined with organdy. Totally biodegradable, this light as a feather gown is something you will treasure in your closet for a lifetime. The words “Selkie” and “Claude Monet” are subtly present in the print.Claude Monet was so taken by the sight of water lilies on the pond in his garden in Giverny, France, that he painted them 250 times. An art critic at the time described Monet’s Lillies with wonder: “their golden discs encased in purple, against the cloudy waters." The original water lily paintings live at some of the greatest museums in the world—particularly The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris. It’s a pleasure to bring their dreamy majesty to Selkie prints. You will feel like an artist's muse as soon as you slip this on. Someone set up the easel!
At Selkie, our prints are one-of-a-kind, just like you. We design each print in-house, so you won't find them anywhere else. Each dress print is unique in its placement and repeat.
We care about the environment, which is why we try to minimize waste by avoiding cutting prints for specific placements. That way, we can use every bit of fabric we have, while still giving you a gorgeous dress.
When it comes to fit, we recommend basing your size selection on your bust and high waist measurements. To ensure the best fit possible, be sure to measure yourself before ordering. And don't forget to steam your Selkie dress to bring out its true beauty!
