So, how does one deal with Vayne?
She dealt 59k physical damage, 57k of which was true damage apparently. So how does one counterbuild against her outside of Thornmail to reduce her self sustain after deathdance/BT?

you ban her lol
Ban phase, the only stage in the game where she has meaningful counterplay.
she did 57k true damage not 57k true damage to CHAMPIONS.
I call bs on those numbers 57k true out of 59k total cant be true. Also saying 59k physical of which 57k was true is like, wrong by defaultt. She either did 57k true AND 59k physical OR you missed something else
There is no building to counter Vayne's damage what so ever. None. Building armor is somewhat affective against her just purely physical damage, but as you mentioned her W is very considerable damage, and armor won't give you much of a feeling of reducing her damage.
The counter to vayne is with assassins that are fed. Just get on her and blow her up before she can Q too much... which can be tricky late game with how slippery she is.
kill the source, slow the source, stop the source, displace the source or finally regen harder than the damage itself.
You deal with Vayne by building armor and health so her physical damage goes down and she relies on getting consistent W hits. She's also pretty heavily affected by CC and burst, given that she doesn't build much defense (the one in your match didn't even build QSS). True damage was barely more than a third of her total champ damage, and that was with two tanks and a tanky bruiser (your Kayn) in the game. And she got fed, and the game went on for 35 minutes. I'm sorry your metagolems weren't immortal after the enemy team counterpicked with a tank buster.
After a certain point, no one regens faster than vayne's damage lol. Not even mundo
1shot her or uninstall until she sells enough of the new skin and balance team decides to actually do their job. It is always possible to win, if the Vayne tumbles in a Sion Q or similar. For some reason I often get such players on my team - or the type that go all alone or with their duo Lulu/Janna on one lane all the time to split and always feed 1(2) v 4-5 (the classic 0/15/0 vayne top)... That's how you win.
Easy answer play Skarner 
.
I have been supporting with skarner the last couple of days now and I must say he is perfect for the current meta. Someone oneshotting everyone? stick with the team and ult their ass when they get close. your team can kill the suppressed person or you can drag the threat away from your team.

57k True Damage?
Yeah.... right...
I’ll tell you what everyone says, “just cc her”
Literally only way I can think of quite honestly
