People have mentioned it her at least 3x on her page (1, 2, 3), and she hasn’t responded at all so… given her stance on things she doesn’t like (she ignores them) I would guess that she doesn’t like Kamijo 😛 otherwise she would have responded.
[X] Kamijo is a huge IWTV fan and an A+ cosplayer, tho! We can enjoy him ourselves without her blessing. ^_____^
Yah sure! First of all: @chrissydeath and @amadeo-child-of-the-renaissance are fab Armand cosplayers/artists and also @sheepskeleton, who has drawn Armand in modern outfits, they’d probably have better suggestions than mine but I WILL TRY.
I’d suggest looking at fanart of Armand, and unfortunately, I don’t have my #fanart collection divided into different characters so I pulled a few memorable ones out for ya here ;D Go ahead and jump in that tag for more, if u dare.
The crucial part of any Armand cosplay is his hair, of course, but everything else is p. much up to you. What would you headcanon he wears? Sometimes he likes to be all decked out in pricey fitted clothes, but he also has a sense of humor, he probably went for all kinds of silliness in the ‘70′s (and he still goes to 70′s themed parties bc of course he does), but I think he’s most comfortable in tight black pants or skinny jeans, a loose t-shirt (Daniel’s probably), and a well-worn light-weather jacket. He looks great in fur for winter, too.
In no special order, some fanart w/ Armand in modern fashion.
[X by @remarried, ~art gallery chic~ turtleneck and mid-thigh coat w/ what looks like trimmed black fur lining. Leather gloves would be good, too.]
[X by @sheepskeleton, keepin’ it casual with a plain collared cotton shirt and denim jacket]
[X Look it’s @chrissydeath as one of @garama‘s versions of Armand! ❤ such attention to detail right down to the belt! I really like Armand in a v-neck.]
[X by @superhiki, Diso inferno indeeeeed! AVIATOR SHADES YES]
[X by @garama,I am diggin’ Armand’s fringe top w/ V neck, tight magenta leather (or pleather!) pants, & classic converse kicks combo but Lestat looks wayyy hotter.]
…but there aren’t many shots of his shoes or boots, really 😛 Not just to conceal the added heel height! There’s just more action going on in the face area ;]
Here’s a pic of one whole costume, w/ I think, the shoes that went w/ it (thumbnail below, check out the link for larger image).
^Blurry combo gif is blurry but you can see his pants are generally just dark blue or black, to let the top half of his outfit be big and flashy. Tight pants would probably be best. Middle gif shows tight velvet leggings and knee high boots w/ what looks like a 2 inch heel:
Similar boots below, but they have a cuff, and different pants, these have button detailing (not sure how high those buttons go):
The little shoot has taken place at the AniMuc ‘16, Germany. This fanshirt is truely a MUST HAVE for all Vampire Chronicles fans Praise @jealizing for the great design, guys!
“How can so much beauty hide such a bruised and steely heart, and why must I love him, why must I lean in my weariness upon his irresistible yet indomitable strength? Is he not the wizend funeral spirit of a dead man in a child’s clothes?” ― Anne Rice, The Vampire Armand
