MODERN VAMPIRE AESTHETICS
Punk Vampires: red and black wardrobe, messy apartments, knows everyone in the city, tons of piercings, goofy nicknames, fishnets and vodka, massive collections of vinyl, always namedropping dead rockstars, doesn’t try to hide their fangs and just tells people they’re accessories, bloodstains on club bathroom floors, spiked chokers, scaring/drinking people who assault girls at venues.
High Achieving Vampires: dark bespoke suits in high quality fabric, gold watches, short no nonsense haircuts held in place with lots of hairspray and bobby pins, stone spiral staircases in ancient universities, wine snobbery, knows all the dead languages, plays the violin and haggles at antique stores, well-traveled, has been dating the same person since like the 18th century, can be arrogant.
Theater Vampires: so much velvet, deep burgundies and plums, really into Les Mis, falls in unrequited love with humans, hangs out with the punk vampires, intensely gay, gets into heated debates about interpretations of Shakespeare because they were there for the original production, French tips, dramatic hair flips, cheap merlot and masqurade balls, will never give up wearing capes.
Soft Vampires: oversized sweaters and skinny jeans, only ever wears black or grey, sad lo-fi playlists and crumpled up poetry, dark under-eye circles and black and white family portraits, sleeps in a lot even by vampire standards, baristas at an all-night coffee shop, nearly as gay as the theater vampires, wishes they were human again, has a lot of trouble being honest with their therapist.
Hermit Vampires: lives in a rural area and is the topic of a lot of local gossip, likes painting landscapes and eastern european folklore, very few friends, bisexual, was a medieval peasant in their human life, grows roses, wild unkempt hair, shirtless whenever possible, lots of black and white tattoos, layers of crystal necklaces, black and purple wardrobe, wishes they could be vegan but… well, you know.
