James Whale’s Bride of Frankenstein turns 90 this year and Los Angeles-based fashion house Vixen by Micheline Pitt is celebrating accordingly.
Universal Products & Experiences and Vixen by Micheline Pitt are have announced a new capsule collection celebrating for Bride of Frankenstein. The release marks the latest addition to Vixen’s official Universal Monsters line, following the success of the Creature from the Black Lagoon collection last summer.
“Few characters in horror history are as visually iconic, or emotionally complex as Frankenstein’s Monster and his Bride,” said Micheline Pitt, CEO and Designer of Vixen by Micheline Pitt. “As a lifelong Universal Monsters fan, it was an absolute dream to reimagine these legends through a modern, feminine lens while honoring the legacy of their unforgettable designs.”
The new capsule collection features inspired fashion pieces and prints that blend cinematic horror with contemporary craftsmanship. Highlights include:
- A fully sculpted Frankenstein™ Monster Crossbody Bag created after the iconic Monster
- Printed vintage movie poster sweatshirts and totes using original historic theatrical release artwork from the Universal archives
- Vintage souvenir-style knit tops featuring both BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN™ and Frankenstein™ Monster drawn by Micheline Pitt
- And the crown jewel of the collection: a replica-inspired BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN™ Bandage Wiggle and Swing Dresses and matching Bolero Jacket, designed as a modern tribute to the Bride’s on screen costume, and silhouette
“This collaboration brings to life the timeless allure of Universal Monsters with fashion that is both nostalgic and wearable,” said Pitt. “From bold graphics to sculptural silhouettes, this collection captures the haunting romance, tragedy, and beauty that defines The Bride of Frankenstein and Frankenstein’s Monster.”
