Peacock Prom And Evening Dresses

I have been fascinated by peacock feathers since I was a small child, my mother used to have a huge vase of the beautiful feathers in our lounge, and I would spend ages just staring at the green and blue colors in the 'eyes' of the feathers.

Showy and colorful, they literally scream 'look at me!' so for a prom or evening event a peacock pattern, embellishment, or print, is perfect.

I've spotlighted some gorgeous peacock dresses here that I think would be great for a prom or evening do'.
