[Selkie's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-drama-school) Starry Night collection encompasses three of Van Gogh's masterpieces in a wearable fashion.

"Each collection tells a story and presents a dreamy world through its imagery." The Starry Night collection takes inspiration from Van Gogh's 'Starry Night,' 'Sunflowers,' and 'The Skull of a Skeleton with Burning Cigarette.' This collection features 'Puff' dresses, a 'Ritz' dress, a 'Romance Novel' dress, a 'Peony' skirt, and 'Pillow Hoodies.'

Selkie is a female-owned and run business. The brand is committed to [size diversity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hocus-pocus-apparel-collection) offering sizes XXS-5X. Selkie is environmentally conscious, is low waste, and, though not 100% sustainable, is looking for environmental ways to evolve due to the use of polyester.

A dreamlike collection with a fitting name, each piece from the Starry Night collection is a [wearable masterpiece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-days-march-1).
