Sadie Frost as Lucy Westenra

My favourite representation of the character Lucy was played by Sadie Frost. I really love the innocence but obvious naughtiness Frost portrays, and love the makeup transition from a beautiful, vulnerable young lady to a distorted, ruined vampire version of herself. The 1992 production is obviously more advanced than the first few Dracula films, and the makeup is vastly improved by this point.

The makeup and fashion throughout the film is accurately presented to the time the novel was written. I love the curly hair and up dos- however the character of Lucy is portrayed as a wild card in a few scenes, with her long red hair down and free flowing, which represents how secretly she craves a mans attention and has sexual desires.

The makeup for the vampire version of Lucy is quite simple in this film. She has dewy white skin, with red/blue eyes and a bright red messy mouth with long, yellow fangs. I love that she's in her wedding dress and has a headdress. It totally contrasts her new, distorted appearance and personality with her clean, white, innocent wedding dress.
