Itās more than just learning how to dress sharp, you also have to be able to afford it. Older vampires have had time to amass some real wealth and a serious wardrobe.
Compounding interest must feel like a cheat code for them.
Nope, itās all learning what looks good on you and whatās comfortable enough that you feel and act naturally. Clothes in the first world are so cheap as to be laughable. Iāve had to ask my wife to stop bringing home kick ass clothes for me. āIt was only $1!ā
Only items Iāll spend $10 on are maybe shoes and maybe pants. OK, I have two tuxedos, $110 on Amazon. One for my wedding and another for I forget what, but Iāll have those forever.
Posted this before, in response to people saying fashion costs money or is uncomfortable. Top, $2. Vest, $2. Pants, $4. Watch, $2. Necklace, homemade from scraps. You get the idea. (And BTW, the top and vest were from the womenās section of the thrift.)
Ew Amazon
Your wife is a lucky woman, sir
Dracula dressed like that because he was a count, not because he was a vampire
Itās this sensitivity training because I said ābloodsucker during lunch? I was complaining about some mosquitosā
so only counts can have immaculate drip?
Anyone *can*. Counts *must*. Itās in the rules.

Fashion is cyclical and vampires have the good fortune of being around long enough that some fit will eventually be couture.
Or maybe real vampires (duh, not the TV kind, obvs) only turn people who already have a certain style?
So toreador are the only real vampires, and all the other clans are TV vamps?
I suppose when you live hundreds of years, youāll probably pick up fashion as a hobby out of nothing more than boredom at some point. Itās also something thatās just been around for a long, looong time, even if itās always changing. So, like, yeah, Iām sure when some bargain bin office floozy gets his middle-class jugular slurped like a straw, heāll still have all the style of a corpo puppet. But like, just give him some time to marinade in eternity. His fashionāll shine through eventually.
Have we reached the point in time where the Twilight series isnāt commonly known about?
Known but actively ignored.
I know that it exists, but I have no basis for using it in this context.

Well⦠I mean⦠this pic is pretty much their descriptionā¦
Hot Topic was invented to capture this market.
As a very powerful vampire, I intentionally dress down to make the point that my own vanity is not in any way part of what commands your respect.
This question was answered authoritatively by famed Vampirologist Stephenie Meyer in her seminal, though short, biography- The Short Life of Bree Tanner.
Bree was a young vampire of only a few days in the story, and she was a shit dresser.
