The Vampire's Wife
The Falconetti Dress
Editor's Notes
The Vampire’s Wife Falconetti dress is a metallic chiffon gown cut in the frill-hemmed silhouette that has swiftly become an entrance-making, event go-to.
The dress-shape of the season undoubtably comes courtesy of The Vampire’s Wife - the label founded by Susie Cave, model and wife of the prince of gothic rock Nick Cave. Influenced by vintage shapes but always rendering them contemporary through clever, flattering tailoring and tactile, unusual fabrics, the dresses are fought over by celebrity and fashion editor alike. This season, the Falconetti dress, with its renowned ruffle-sleeved silhouette, is reimagined in metallic chiffon. The skirt is flouncy and frilled and the ¾ sleeves are finished with ruffled cuffs. Lined with silk, it is a luxury to wear – add decadent, gold and silver heels.
