The History of Cissi och Selma
We made our first collection in 2013. Our vision has always been for people to wear more colour. We draw inspiration from the 50's, 60's and 70's and want you to be happy and comfortable when wearing our clothes.
Cissi och Selma strive to make as sustainable items of clothing as we can. We design our clothes in our office behind the store at Södermalm in Stockholm and our collections are produced in Romania and Turkey. We visit our factories frequently. Our design is timeless and we always try to use organic fabrics when we can.
We started out with dresses, and that is still the main part of our collection, but we also have skirts, tops, trousers and coats as well as our children's line, Cissi och Selma MINI.
We produce in sizes XS-XXL and we strive to be able to provide everyone with a style that will work just for you, regardless of size and shape.
You can find Cissi och Selma, in our shop in Stockholm and in about 20 stores in Sweden and about 70 stores around the world. Click here to find all of our retailers.
"I started the company Cissi och Selma in 2007. Selma was a baby then and I spent my maternity leave walking up and down every street of Södermalm in Stockholm to find the perfect place for my store. My vision has always been for people to dare to wear more colour and my love for dresses is as strong today as it was back then. I have always loved the 50's, 60's and 70's and it is from there I draw my inspiration when making our own collection as well as for the brands I select for the store. This year Selma turned 14 years old and the store has moved several times, but always to a new addess on Bondegatan in SoFo, as of now on Bondegatan 12.
The environment and sustainability is important to me and with all the decision we make we always have this in mind. Both the design and quality has to be good since we want our clothes to live long and happy lives."
