This Selkie Angel is from the Selkie whimsical fantasy fairytale New York Fashion Week Show for Spring/Summer 2024 at the St. Regis Hotel.  The show was inspired by the Cottingley Sisters, who convinced the world in 1917 that fairies must exist.

Creative Director and Designer Kimberly Gordon (@Selkie), who created a superspectacular show.  asked “Do You Believe?”  She does. And she transported everyone back in time to play dress up – “to embrace your inner child” with her cream puff dresses modernized with magic.

Feminine pretty hair was by Linh Nguyen for Cutler/Redken and the makeup by Lottie for Color Pop featured soft bow lips, a flush-like blush and a mole (not shown here).    To see 27 photos with the designer’s nostalgic fantasy fashions, CLICK HERE

The Selkie New York Fashion Week Show for Spring 2024 which took place in the St Regis rooftop ballroom was something else. It was a whimsical fantasy fairy tale showcasing models of all sizes, ages, one gorgeous girl in a wheelchair, two burlesque performers.  Inspired by the Cottingley Sisters, who convinced the world in 1917 that fairies might exist, Creative Director and Designer, Kimberly Gordon, produced a superspectacular show. She asks “Do You Believe?” She does, and she transported everyone back in time  to play dress up – “to embrace your inner child” with her cream puff dresses modernized with magic.

The feminine pretty hairstyles, many with hair extensions, was by Linh Nguyen for Cutler/Redken, and the make up by Lottie for Colour Pop featured a mole, soft bow lips, a flush-like blush.
