You'll need:

Those final shots captured the "moody and *segsy*, but still super sophisticated" vibes that I get from The Vampire's Wife soooooo perfectly 😍 This dress is just phenomenal! That colour suits you down to the ground and the silhouette is so flattering. What an amazing make 🤯🤩 mind blown as always

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Thank you so much! I‘m glad you liked this one ☺️🙏

[@dan354]

The dress you showed isn’t a copy, it’s still the Vampire’s Wife dress just sold through another shop. The VW dress is named the Falconetti and it’s just stocked by the shop Matches Fashion in that second picture. Can you tell I’ve spent plenty of time googling it and drooling over it?! 😂

[@ThrillsandStitches]

Ohhhhh good catch! Haha I don’t blame you 😄🥹 maybe you can make a dupe for yourself now! 😉

[@dullah_jutt_738]

[@elizabethrobles9934]

Amazing younsef made it your own. 100% don’t think exact cheap copies of a high end dress should be allowed. It’s disrespectful.

[@ThrillsandStitches]

I agree, that is when you sell it, which I don’t.
