Vertigo is about castration.
At least spiritually. In that opening scene he loses his Vrill by slipping, which is what causes the Vertigo.
The corset in the very next scene is a symbol of his feminization. Note that his ex is most comfortable with him in this state, and teases his about not recognizing a bra.
Obviously then follows the romance with his friends wife, by cucking his friend he would regrow his spiritual penis. And when she "dies" he goes catatonic from Vrill depletion.
When he finds about she was an imposter the entire time his sexual fixation becomes her "performance" of this symbol of lost Vrill. If he can successfully goad and manipulate her into performing the character of the "wife"which never existed he will have proven she prefers him over his former friend. Right before the climax he finally gets a confession to the murder out of her, but by that point his obsession with regaining his phallus is obsessive.
When she falls to her death she completes the "act" of performing his friends wife, so perfectly she now is dead. The reason he doesn't jump after her is because he
1) never really loved her in the first place
2) has regained his phallus and overcome his vertigo
His dream, which is just a copy of the one invented by the fake wife, represents a spiritual death on his part. Where the obsession with his own mental phallus has killed his soul.
