Pretty as a peacock

I have had a hankering for a peacock outfit since I first started treading the boards. So you can imagine my delight (think squeeing and dancing around) at finding one that is not only absolutely beautiful, but that comes with layer options and is -free!-.
The lovely four Yip is sharing this little masterpiece absolutely gratis - pop round the corner from her shop and look for a little black curtained shack… I won’t tell you what delights await inside, but frankly I could have stayed there for hours. But then, I -am- a burlesque dancer.
The outfit itself is beautiful, with the most gorgeous texturing that really captures the soft, downy feel of feathers. It features a bra and panties that look to have been made out of feathers, accented with tiny little beads - and beneath those layers there is the option for the briefest pair of briefs imaginable and some peacock feather pasties. I’m usually a bit uncertain about textured pasties rather than prim ones, as they can tend to look a bit like a splodge, but these ones really work! Plus it means I don’t have to perform some impressive sleight of hand when performing, always a bonus!
The prim feathers are equally gorgeous, accenting the panties and bra as well as providing a headdress and, of course, the peacock tail. The alpha work here is wonderfully clean.
I adore the delicate play of colours on this piece - from the striking blues to the murky greens. And of course, I couldn’t resist vamping it up just a little more. Added to the mix are the yummy long length turquoise gloves from Fleur (formerly Tete a Pied), the dark green sheer lace stockings from *PERSONA*, the brown (yes, brown!) Mary Geos from Shiny Things and Eolande’s Peacock Headdress for ETD’s Sophia hair. The skin is Aurora 2, also from Fleur.
I sincerely and desperately hope that four makes some more outfits like this, because if she does, I’ll be right at the front of the queue.
