A fashionista can learn a lot from the peacock. A peacock's bright plumage just screams out for attention, while its springtime strut (and innate ability to shake those tailfeathers) is nearly inimitable.

It's no wonder, then, that designers have created a number of designs inspired by the peacock. Whether they're brightly-patterned tights or [flashy underwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feather-lace) that feature a peacock pattern or earrings and fascinators that use actual feathers, there are plenty of beautiful peacock-inspired fashions in the gallery above.
