vampy
Sultry and bold
Vampy describes a style that's darkly seductive and glamorously predatory—think deep red lipstick, smoky eyes, and an air of dangerous allure.
The word draws on the femme fatale sense of vamp (a woman who uses her sexuality to manipulate), not the bloodsucking creature.
She went for a vampy look with black nails and a plunging neckline.
