Dear Anon – I don’t think you quite understand how this lot operates.
If I were to go ahead and spank one of them, I wouldn’t get respect so much as I’d likely get a line of them out the door waiting for a turn. Quite the group of masochists in this nighttime world of immortality. Never considered that when I was writing reports on them for the Talamasca.
Confirmed. It’ll likely stay in storage too because none of us are flamboyant enough to pull off trying to wear it.
Who Wore It Best? The Vampire Lestat or this Disturbing Lady Mannequin?

You and I both are well aware that is not my cloak. No one dyed the wolf fur red. Don’t show me classics from Liberace’s closet (who, by the way–was he actually mortal and is he actually still alive?).
But I assume the statement is true. Has it dry-rotted by now, or has it been preserved?
Everything is preserved. Our Archives are fitted similarly to many museums, with temperature controls and limited exposure to handling for items that time has rendered fragile. Fabric is infamously weak to mishandling. Your cloak, however, has managed to endure well within its containment.
With the advancement of technologies, we have updated our facilities to a superior level of Preservation Storage. So your cloak might very well exist for another century or two.

Louis: LESTAT SUCKS!
Lestat, from a distance: WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!
Louis: There he is
