My wife and I where looking for the most original costume for our daughter and we bumped into the peacock bird. Since that moment we decided to look for feathers and a fabric that matched the color of the bird.
Finally we found everything we neede and the hard and complicated part was to put the feathers together, so I came out with the idea of using a piece of foam and insert one by one and glue them and the same time add straps on the back and a belt.
A family member made the blouse and skirt, in the end we like the result. It looks very original and this is a 100% Homemade Peacock Bird Costume. Hope you like it.

Where did you buy those long tail feathers? I can only find ones that are 12″ max.
My niece wants me to make her one. I have not been able to find the long feathers. Help please….
For those of you looking for feathers I found them online at Hobby Lobby up to 40″ long. They start at $1.99 each!
You can find the long feathers @
The Feather Store.com, they sell them in bulk for rather inexpensively.
YES, ALL varieties of peacock feathers are on sale now at HOBBY LOBBY….50% off!!! Those huge peacock feathers I just bought for $1.00 each & they’re beautiful!
I am not clear on how you put the feathers into the foam? Could you elaborate on that?
