Alucard costume update...

[nadriel]

Now I have a deadline for the costume to be ready by (24th July, the From Hell party for the London Vamps), I've kicked up my searching for costume a bit.

I now have:

The boots.
The trousers.
An adequate shirt.
A waistcoat I can use in lieu of whatever it is he actually wears.
The gloves.
Some guns.

I'm just about to obtain the hat and glasses (thankyou Ebay!), and a friend of mine can sort out the ribbon.

Now all I need to do is get some proper fangs (I have a suitable contact for that as well, so that's okay), red contacts, a suitable style wig, and the red frock coat, which is proving to be the most difficult item.

Here we go....

Re: Jermyn street

[lokean.livejournal.com]

there's this place that basically consists of nothing but gentlemen's clothiers, posh cheese shops, gentlemans clubs, expensive hotels and assorted other gentlmanly things. For reference I got my two silk waistcoats from a shop along there.

If you're interested, it's the first turning on your right if you walk south along regent street from picadilly circus.

Even if you don't get anything alucard related from any of the shops no self respecting gentleman living in london should be unaware of the street's existence
