Robert Pattinson in Twilight and Daniel Radcliffe in Harry Potter

I have been trying very hard not to do this, but I can’t help it—who, between the wizards in “Harry Potter” and the vampires in “Twilight” would win in a fight? With super powers galore on both sides, how could the blood suckers or the wand bearers ever possibly gain an advantage? Well, I decided this supernatural bonanza will never be satisfactorily determined since there are far too many variables and since all the characters are, um, fictional. Therefore, my only recourse is to make this battle a fashion battle. We will never know how a set of fangs would fare against a wand, but right here, right now, we are going to settle who wins the style smack down.

First of all, a round of applause to Harry Potter for even stepping into the ring at all. It’s tough to face down Edward Cullen, the most lusted after person to never exist, and yet Harry is up for the fight. Let’s see, their styles are somewhat similar. Both favor a neutral color palette, jackets over tee shirts and ruffled hair. Considering the lack of substantial fashion distinction, I think this round goes to Harry. Edward does look awfully fine, but he has had about 100 years to nail his style and Harry, a mere 16. Harry has put together his look with admirable speed, even though he has to sleep.

“Ron looks best in his quiditch uniform, but puhleeze, arm pads are so ‘90s.”

I hate to be a nerd, but, to be fair, the Harry Potter boks are technically set in the nineties.

@Ginger: Correct-o-mundo. I actually share Ginny’s birthday, just not the year, 8/11/81.

@Ginger: fair point. If only the costume designers were as aware of the timing!

I’m glad you picked Dumbledore…he used to wear a purple suit, for crying out loud! Definitely a trend setter.

I agree with Lea322. Of course, Dumbledore would have the best fashion sense and understand the full power of accessorizing. If he had chosen FIT over Hogwarts, he would have blown away Tim Gunn.
