Frequently Asked Questions

How do Selkie dresses fit?

When it comes to finding the perfect dress, it can be difficult to know which style will fit you best. Selkie dresses are a popular choice among fashionistas and they offer an array of flattering fits that flatter all body shapes. So, how do Selkie dresses fit?

Selkie dresses are designed with a focus on creating figure-flattering silhouettes. The brand is known for its form-fitting designs that hug curves in all the right places while also providing enough room to move comfortably in. That’s why many women opt for these styles when looking for something more than just a basic shift or sheath dress.

The bodice of Selkie dresses typically includes an empire waistline and spaghetti straps (or other options). This helps create the desired silhouette without being too constricting around the chest area. Meanwhile, skirt lengths vary from midi to maxi depending on your preference and occasion—and often feature pleats or ruffles for added dimension and texture.

How do you get wrinkles out of a Selkie dress?

If you have a Selkie dress that has been in your wardrobe for years, it’s likely to have some wrinkles. While this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, if the wrinkles are causing an unflattering look or getting in the way of comfort and styling with other outfits, then there are several ways to get rid of them. The easiest and most natural method is steaming.

This requires little more than a steam iron or handheld garment steamer—both can be found at numerous online stores as well as local home goods stores. To use either tool, hold the nozzle about two inches from the fabric surface and move it continuously over the area until all of the wrinkles come out. Be careful not to press too hard on any one spot because this could damage your dress's delicate material.

If using a steam iron, also make sure to keep it moving so that you don’t accidentally scorch your fabric! Another option is spraying water onto affected areas before hanging up your dress in direct sunlight for an hour or two; this should allow enough time for gravity and heat from outside light sources to take their course and remove those pesky creases naturally without any additional tools required.

What are Selkie dresses made of?

Selkie dresses are named after the mythical Irish selkie, which is said to be a shape-shifting seal creature. The term “selkie” has come to refer to any dress made of lightweight and airy fabric that can be worn in multiple ways. Selkies are often used as casual beach coverups or loungewear but can also work for more formal occasions like wedding receptions or other events where you want something comfortable yet stylish.

The most common fabrics used for Selkie dresses include rayon, linen, cotton voile, chiffon and gauze. Each of these materials provides a different look and feel depending on how it is cut and styled. Rayon is lightweight and sheer with an elegant drape that makes it perfect for flowy silhouettes; linen gives off a relaxed bohemian vibe with its natural texture; cotton voile offers more coverage than rayon but still allows your skin to breathe; chiffon adds an extra layer of drama with its floating feel while still being light enough to keep you cool; finally, gauze brings out the romance with its dreamy texture through all seasons.

How do you hang a Selkie dress?

Hanging a Selkie dress is actually quite easy and doesn’t require any special tools or skills. A Selkie is an Irish garment, similar to a cape, that was traditionally worn by fisherwomen in Ireland. It usually has long fringes along the bottom and often features intricate patterns or designs.

The traditional way of hanging a Selkie dress involves using two nails placed in opposite corners of the wall. The first step is to measure out where you want your nails to be placed on the wall so they are evenly spaced from each other. This will ensure that your dress hangs straight and looks neat when hung up.

You should also make sure that there are no obstructions behind the wall such as pipes or wires which could interfere with how your dress hangs down once it's been hung up on the nails. Once you have measured out where you want your nails to be placed, use a hammer to carefully drive them into the wall at approximately 8 inches apart from each other depending on how big/long your Selkie dress is (for larger dresses it may require more space). Make sure both nails are secure before continuing onto step 3!
