It's been a while since I wrote my
last brand love and I've been really excited to share this particular lookbook with you next. Dreamy, whimsical and more than a little magical,
Selkie's Circe Lookbook is inspired by the book of the same name, written by Madeline Miller (which you can grab
here, by the way). Circe is a powerful goddess in the house of Helios who uses her magic to cast spells that are organic and made from the earth. In Photographer and
Selkie creator
Kimberley Gordon's words:
. . . she is an incredible spirit and a truly fascinating ancient icon for women. Her story has become so modern, speaking against slut shaming and women blaming! Reading the book I drew so much power from Circe, I imagined her living in this modern world. I shot the collection in an abandoned pool house in Bel Air, and I swear I could feel Circe all around us.
The muse in these photos is
Rebekka Sandok, and I think she conveyed the role of enchantress and goddess perfectly. I'm definitely going to keep an eye out for Madeline Miller's book, and hopefully will be able to write a review of it here in the future. But for now, I will leave you with the knowledge that my favourite piece from this collection is the
English Garden Macaron Dress, with the
Petal Gown being a close runner-up.

ReplyDeleteI am too! I so wish my town were more suitable a place to wear poofy dresses. Oh well. Maybe I can find a way to tone them down x Thanks Kailey!
