Lucy Westphal- Dracula

Key words: "day", "evening", "promenade", and "tea" dresses. Some wedding dresses are perfect too tho. Hopefully will be able to stick to lighter colors.. White, soft blues, mint green, etc... Goes along with the emphasis on purity... And then a mourning dress for the beginning, and maybe a more vivid or darker color when Lucy starts changing. Also taffeta is sometimes the best thing ever, especially when it comes to fashion in this era. Also got a few nightgown ideas.. the more chiffon-y ones are gorgeous ahh
