* BloodSplatteredWeddingDress - After becoming a vampire, she took revenge by killing her rapists including ex-fiance while wearing one of these.

She said she was very careful not to spill any blood, because she knew she wouldn't be able to resist it, and she didn't want any of them to be a part of her. So unless she bloodied it up beforehand with some animal blood, say from a hunt, or a butcher shop...
