The Vampire’s Wife is loved by the fashion crowd for its bewitchingly beautiful collections which are ethereal, delicate and subtly gothic all at once. Exquisitely feminine dresses made using ethereal fabrics, Susie Cave’s designs are full of jewel colours and made for people like me, who like to wear summer dresses all year round. Most of Susie’s designs whether short or long, are based on a very specific, Victorian-looking silhouette which she believes is “…the shape that I felt most flattered and amplified the essence of a woman—that was unashamed celebration of the feminine form”. Her signature full length dresses will definitely make you feel feminine, Vogue has even awarded Susie’s emerald green Falconetti dress ‘the dress of the decade’.
Many Hollywood A-listers such as Jennifer Aniston, Cate Blanchett, Dakota Johnson and Lilly James are fans of the floor sweeping Vampire’s Wife dresses. Susie’s designs feel as if they have been especially made for you. 'The Unrequited' maxi dress I wear is a perfect example of a garment which feels bespoke, it is tiered from intricate floral lace, which shimmers with pearlescent baby-pink and silver hues. The rounded neckline is framed by pretty puffed sleeves with buttoned cuffs. Ruth Chapman told Vogue back in 2017 that the Vampire’s Wife was “…an old-fashioned English sensibility with something that makes us feel super-sexy and feminine. She’s effected that very difficult thing of making you feel as if they are one-offs, like she has made something just for you”. I could not agree more.
