Princess Kate and Princess Beatrice’s wardrobes are set to lose some sparkle. The Vampire’s Wife, a label specializing in darkly glamorous evening gowns both women have worn over the years, announced on May 21 that it is shutting down.
Susie Cave founded The Vampire’s Wife in 2014, pulling the brand’s evocative name from the title of an unpublished novel by her husband, Nick Cave. Over a decade in business, the brand became known for its subversion of Victorian flourishes like high necklines, ruffled sleeves, and floor-grazing hems, by pairing them with glitzy, shimmering lamé fabrics and rich jewel tones. It had also become a favorite of A-listers including Princess Kate (who’s worn several of its gothic-chic gowns) and Princess Beatrice (who’s a fan of both its dresses and going-out tops). Additional famous fans have ranged from Kate Moss and Florence Welch to Rachel Weiss and Sienna Miller.
