Why do we love this dress?

We are in love with the black velvet construction that exudes luxury wherever you go. The dainty crystal flower embellishments are all about levelling up the romantic look with a pinch of glam. The A-line silhouette gives this dress a versatile appearance.

Why should I buy this dress?

This VAMPIRE’S WIFE dress comes with puffed sleeves that add to the drama. It also comes with a silk lining that adds to a smooth fit, along with a concealed hook-and-zipper fastening at the back that allows you to wear it without any hassle.

Where would I wear this dress?

You can wear this dress to your night-time occasions, whether you are headed to a dinner date with your darling or just a family gathering. It can also be worn to black-tie events and galas.

What shoes should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with the BALENCIAGA 110mm Knife Nylon Knot Pumps. These pumps are crafted in Italy from velvet fabric and come with a pointed front and 110mm leg-elongating heel. They are integrated with a rubber sole that allows you a better grip for walk.

What bag should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with the JUDITH LEIBER COUTURE Mini Crystal-embellished Bow-detailed Metallic Leather Tote. This tote has been crafted from silver leather and has sparkling crystals throughout its structure. It is further enhanced with a twinkling embellished bow at the front and features a top handle and detachable chain strap.

What we don't love about this dress?

This dress comes with delicate floral embellishment and is prone to unwanted snags and pulls.
