​Cosplaying With Feathers

Jun 7th 2017

With Comic Con coming up soon, choosing and creating the perfect cosplay costume can be a lot of work and we wanted to make it easier for you! Adding feathers can be an amazing touch and bring your cosplay to the next level, so here are some examples of cosplayers who have also used them and what kinds they used, to inspire you and help get your costume ready to go!



Hawkgirl (DC Comics)

Hawkgirl's wings are stunning! Layer lots of grey goose satinettes to create some of your own.

Yzma (Emperor's New Groove)

This Yzma cosplay from Emperor's New Groove uses some wispy purple ostrich drabs and a small cluster of black rooster hackle feathers. Pictured here are 8-10" ostrich drabs, but you can go larger for a more dramatic look or smaller for a more subtle feel!

Xayah (League Of Legends)

Xayah's large ears call for some soft texture! Even though she is not a bird, feathers are an easy way to get that wispy, layered look that resembles fur! Use some silky rooster saddle feathers to create the look.
