Coolest Homemade Provocative Peacock Costume

Peacocks are nature’s showoffs so why not be a provocative one when you’re trying to be the center of attention!

I have a love of peacock feathers but could not find a single one online that showed off the true beauty of a peacock. I searched online for ideas and decided that I needed to have real feathers to make my Homemade Provocative Peacock Costume.

I ordered 30 full-sized and 4 of the short skinny ones without the eyes. I already had a turquoise and black corset and bought a black petticoat and turquoise leggings that happened to match almost perfectly.

I started by making a headband with three feathers then, instead of having an almost unmanageable fan of feathers on my back, I opted for a smaller spray of 8 that would lean to one side. I hot-glued 6 shortened feathers to the front of the corset and tucked the spray into the back. I did up my eyes by using liquid glitter instead of eye-liner, and put a lot of blue and green shadow.

  1. You did such a great job putting that costume together that it actually looks store-bought! And I am getting such great ideas here. Good call on opting out on the huge fan of feathers, even though it is stunning when someone manages it. I just know that I would spend all night obsessing about my feathers getting messed up and I wouldn’t let anyone near enough to talk to me! And forget about ever sitting down!

    I’m brainstorming (and idea-shopping here) on how to manage to keep it all as flashy as it should be. You really nailed it! Love the bodice!
