Gaston

Costume Worn: May 2010

Costume Reprised: April 2018

One of Irvin's friends had a costumed birthday party themed around hunters and animals, so Irvin dressed as Gaston from Beauty and the Beast - the douchiest hunter of all!

A whopping eight years later, Irvin revisited the costume when attending an Alan Menken benefit concert at Carnegie Hall - the costume was subtle and comfortable enough for such a fancy occasion. Unfortunately, Irvin's muscles were no closer to being "the size of a barge" at 26 than they had been at 18. But still, no one attends concerts like Gaston!
