Vampire fashion
|
Vampire fashion or vampyre fashion is generally a mixture of Victorian fashion with Gothic fashion. Some utilize elements of Cyber fashion, but this is rare. As Vampires, or vampyres, are typically shown as an elegant race their fashion matches that. Lace, black, dresses or gowns, all match the vampire fashion. Try Gothic Lolita or black Lolita and neo-victorianism.
It is also an elegant gothic fashion with torn ends, like a disintegrating funerary clothes, and or having details that are usually associated with ancient time or spider webs.
Vampire fashion, the clothing style Goths sometimes follow, has evolved in the supernatural race as time passed by. From Dracula's tux, amulet, and cap, with the familiar slicked-back hair and white fangs reaching below the lower lip, and long heavy black dresses with red hints and long black nails for the girl-vamps, to the more-modern cut, ripped black skirts, webbed sleeves, fishnets or tights, and long necklaces and bracelets all in black, vampire style is used time and time again and is changed as each imagination handles it. The female vampires have changed the most overtime; the most the male vampire style has changed is it comes in boy sizes now.
It's easy to confuse witch style and vampire styles, especially with the nails and some of the dresses, as the modern witch's nail's are decorated with black webs on a white coating, which could also be passable for the vampire. The major colors for the vampire are red and black. Perhaps these colors mean something; black for the darkness, and red for the blood.
Hollywood influence
In order to create a vampire fashion movement, a studio hired Terry Melville, who teamed up with other designers including Byron Lars and Zang Toi.
