Wearing feathers for fashion is almost always to show the wearer is trying to show some measure of style, sophistication, and wealth.[[note]]Plumes from certain birds can be pricey.[[/note]] There aren't any ceremonial reasons for trying to look/be like a bird, the feathers are being worn just to look glamorous. Whether wearing large plumes, or trimmings of down feathers, it's all fashionable, in both fiction or in RealLife.

Common forms are feathers on hand fans, feather boas, plumes on hats, trimming a [[{{Socialite}} rich lady's]] nightgown, trimming {{Pimped Out Dress}}es, trimming {{Sexy Santa Dress}}es, and decorating headdresses and {{showgirl skirt}}s on dancers and showgirls in nightclubs.

Any examples of PeacockGirl, where the feathers are worn instead of [[LittleBitBeastly a character having a peacock tail]], would be examples of this.

Common in CostumePorn.

A SisterTrope to PrettyInMink (often feathers are worn in a similar way as fur[[note]]such as a stole covered in swansdown would be just as prized as mink stole[[/note]]).

* Music/BrianEno wore these with Music/RoxyMusic and in his early solo career.
* Brazilian Carnival dancers often wear massive, exuberant feathers in their costumes, usually in headdresses or attached to their backs. Although they typically come from geese, peacocks, pheasants and other birds, the practice is slowly losing way to synthetic feathers to avoid animal cruelty.
