THE VAMPIRE'S WIFE

Midnight A-line woven maxi dress

Susie Cave kept it in the family when she founded The Vampire's Wife, using husband Nick Cave's discarded book project title to dub her romantic line-up of designs. And as it turns out, she couldn't have picked a better appellation to reflect her gothic and Victorian-inspired silhouettes. A case in point? The Midnight dress. Looking to the Gibson Girl silhouettes of the early 20th century, this metallic style features dainty puff sleeves and falls to a ruffle-trimmed hem.
