.batforlashes’s Natasha Khan’s new Vampire-inspired EP is hauntingly beautiful; her neo-Victorian tour look is too.
account revealed that in choosing the dress she was shopping her own closet. She ordered the dress from an online Halloween shop when she and her boyfriend dressed like Tim Burton’s Lydia and Beetlejuice last year. “When I wore it, I just felt so powerful and so cool,” says Khan. “I think it just kind of unleashes something.”Engraving of Jane Austen’s father introducing one of his children to friends, 1788.
A crafter of what she describes as “happy sad songs,” Khan will often combine her gothic lyrics with the sweet tinkling sound of a music-box-style melody. “If I’m going to talk about a really sad subject matter, I generally like to weave it into a musical place that feels safe and roomlike—or just magically transportative it in some way—because then you weave a spell where you can get into people’s deeper psyches.
It has a really funny story. It’s actually my Halloween costume because my boyfriend and I dressed up as Lydia and Beetlejuice. The dress is based on Winona Ryder’s red wedding dress from [the movie]. It was just super comfortable, and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I was like, This is great, I don’t just want to wear this once. I had some other ideas, but nothing was really grabbing me.
Definitely. I was born six days before Halloween. I kind of love most the ’80s [vampire ideal] because it had a tongue-in-cheek black-comedy aspect to it. I do really love the original Gothic vampire look, but I think my angle on it [for this album] was combining that with Mexican girl gangs that used to be around Echo Park [in Los Angeles].
