Our reading

An editorial interpretation.

The speaker announces a monstrous identity and immediately directs attention to their clothing. The abrupt pairing makes appearance part of the claim to menace, as though an outfit should say something about being a bloodsucking fiend. The jump from horror to wardrobe gives the declaration its comic contrast.
