THE VAMPIRE’S WIFE X H&M

The cult British fashion brand and the Swedish retailer’s new collaborative collection is progressive in both attitude and fabrication, with garments made from sustainably sourced materials. 

Statement pieces include the lace mystique mini dress with signature shoulders, velvety mini dress with sensual pussy-bow and the romantic silvery lace cape, all comprising recycled nylon and polyester.

 The Vampire’s Wife’s signature focus on silhouette also shines on the street-sweeper length lace dress with retro ruffled hem. 

Accessories encourage whimsy, as charm necklaces, bracelets and ear cuffs feature eye, cloud and vampire teeth iconography. Fingerless lace gloves and white detachable ruffled collars are playful too. 

Classic black dominates the collection for an invitingly mysterious feel, with shimmery silver lace, opulent button cuffs and rich velvet textures adding a luxurious tone. 

The Vampire’s Wife X H&M collection ($16.95 to $94.95) launches on Oct 22 at all H&M stores and hm.com.
