Should vampires have traditional weaknesses, or has that gone out of style?

I think it is the part what makes them intriguing. Sure, bloodsucking, charming fellows, but really restricted by their weaknesses.
But you have to remember that severity of those weaknesses tends to fluctuate over time.
In Bram Stoker's Dracula, the count only lost his powers in sunlight and got stabbed dead.
Then you have the other plethora of weaknesses, like getting ill from of sight/smell of garlic, having to count small things like rice ( eastern vampires and some from Carpathians ), not being allowed to enter residence without being invited, not being able to cross running water, having strong distaste for organized religion...

Make vampires how you want to make them.

Why is her dress getting incinerated? Is it a vampire too?

In a Discworld novel it was the vampire with the traditional weakness that ended being the most powerful one. While the noveau vampires that tried to get rid themselves of all weakness ended being wimps.

I like their normal weaknesses to be there with some possible mitigators.
