strutter
One who preens
A strutter is someone who struts—walks with an exaggerated, self-important gait suggesting pride or vanity.
The word carries a mildly mocking tone, implying the person's confidence may be unearned: Look at that strutter in his new suit.
In some contexts, strutter refers to a performer or showoff more generally.
