How to make a Peacock Tail (Tutorial) | DIY Cosplay/ Costume

[@cass_p]

I love the way the rocks move; its so fluid and dynamic. You've really inspired me - now I want to try making something like this to attach to the back of my wheelchair.

[@KirileeCosplay]

That’s an awesome idea!

[@leftoutlatte4511]

Omg im so glad i came across this! I’ve been crocheting peacock feathers for a tail but didn’t know hot to make it itself, thank you!!!!

[@KirileeCosplay]

I’m glad it can come in handy!

[@elizabethledet1346]

I'm using for a peacock tail as well!

[@BeMoreShonen]

Love it. Toph is my favorite on the show

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thanks!

[@katrinepedersen9660]

Oh wow, that is actually genius. So simple principle, and yet so cool effect :D A very well made tutorial too. Clear instructions and easy to follow along

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thank you very much! Glad you liked it

[@elleaich334]

This is genius! And exactly what I needed for my Kyouka/Demon Snow cosplay.

[@KirileeCosplay]

I’m glad!

[@BrentPerrotti]

I have been looking for a tutorial for one of these skirts forever thank you

[@KirileeCosplay]

My pleasure! Glad I could help!

[@beheroot]

Thats amazing Toph cosplay :D

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thank you!

[@annerogers6895]

Such a cool idea.

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thank you!

[@undertowlil]

I’m doing Shen from kung fu panda this summer, thank you so much for sharing your process, you are so cool and looked badass onstage

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thanks so much!

[@rhodaecosplay]

Where did you get the rods? Im having trouble finding the correct size. And what diameter?

[@KirileeCosplay]

I got them from a local curtaining store. They are about 1cm thick

[@sarahlu3548]

Could you explain how the hook and bar works in this case? I didn't really understand what the purpose of the hook and bar was for in this design

[@KirileeCosplay]

It was to keep the belt on around the waist

[@rkid99]

Hello, how many yards of fabric did you use for this tail?

[@KirileeCosplay]

About 2

[@DaniiLuma]

Thank you VERY much for doing this

[@KirileeCosplay]

No problem

[@alaskacosplay]

I might do this for my Barbie Island Princess cosplay but probably make it static but removable so it stays up behind my 18th century gown bodice, since I will be using that for the base, and have it be removable and collapsible for storage. The original plan was to make a massive fan base that rigs with wire to my stays and the bodice goes over it. Does it make sense? I hope it does.

[@KirileeCosplay]

That would work!

[@SuperNova-y5o]

What is the fabric used for the mock up?

[@KirileeCosplay]

That was just some spare lining fabric I had laying around

[@MadamRose_]

I saw this some time ago and I was wondering whether there was any costume I'd use for it and lo and behold, new Helluva Boss trailer dropped and a peacock demon actually has this as well so I'm dropping it to a friend who's cosplaying him!

[@KirileeCosplay]

Sounds awesome! Good luck!

[@ArcaneTempestCosplay]

Just thought of something. Would you think putting stretch fabric on top of the channels cause any issues with it?

[@KirileeCosplay]

It would make it very clear where the channels were/ and I wanted to keep mine as clear as possible. However, there is nothing to stop you doing that if your design is different

[@ArcaneTempestCosplay]

@KirileeCosplay ty ma'am!! I'm trying to replicate the Broadway ursula tentacles that are combo of a hoop skirt and a peacock tail so they were gonna stand out either way lol

[@ArcaneTempestCosplay]

This is gonna be so helpful for my broadway style Ursula tentacles

[@KirileeCosplay]

I am glad!

[@KuroSenpie]

Blessed💚✨️

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thanks!

[@Blanca-hg4rx]

How long are the rods

[@KirileeCosplay]

1m and 1.25m

[@timah9091]

Hi...what would happen if I use a cotton fabrics?...I only have it

[@KirileeCosplay]

You wouldn’t be able to see through it but it would still work

[@timah9091]

Thanks for the reply

[@lorelaimorace-kk1xz]

this shall be sick

[@KirileeCosplay]

Thank you! The audience liked it when she came up on stage!

[@elisaemerald]

Girl, you rock 😀 Haha, earthbending reference 😅

[@KirileeCosplay]

Nice

[@Frogz12920]

I don’t understand how you sew the waistband on, the instructions aren’t clear. Can you please? elaborate

[@KirileeCosplay]

You sew the Center down on from the correct side. Then sew both sides with seam allowance. Turn those out to the correct side through towards the middle. Iron and then stitch by hand the Center on the inside. I hope that hells

[@Frogz12920]

@@KirileeCosplay thank you! I did something similar but ended up making my own twist on it. I’d love to share it with you once it’s complete!

[@finieja]

Now I want to make a peacock costume

[@KirileeCosplay]

Do it :)
