I wanted Avraham's style to exemplify the intense camp and cheese that came with the 1970s, particularly in men's fashion. Inspired by popular artists and performers such as Tom Jones and Bruce Lee, Avraham wears the stereotypical wide ties, open shirts, and large collars over a lapel jacket. He tends to keep to a color scheme of warm colors and browns, but does venture out into cooler colors and patterns occasionally. Compared to Cleo, Avraham's clothing is less experimental and more standard for the time, however he is not afraid to stand out, especially when he's on the dance floor, as you can see from her formal wear.
In terms of appearance, Avraham also takes inspiration from Peter Falk and Al Pacino. I modeled his hair and facial structure after Al Pacino, but also used Peter Falk to give him a softer and more paternal feel. Avraham is the "father figure" of the vampires, and I tried to show this through his preference towards sweaters, dress shoes and loafers, and very high waisted pants. In short, Avraham is a goofy, but surprisingly stylish dad.
