Basic black is always ready to party! With this black fluffy feather boa you will be ready to dress to impress at the newest Downton Abbey movie that is due to be released in 2025. Or even before that you can add a touch of vintage pizzazz to your Dance recital, Roaring 20's party or Halloween costume with this lush black feather boa. It is 6 feet in length, and approximately 8 full and fluffy inches wide. The size is a perfect fit for virtually all women and teenagers too. The fluffy feathers give you a romantic, sassy or even a vintage look, while keeping your accessory lightweight. There are many ways to wear a boa or simply hang it over your shoulder or arms. A boa is ideal for those who love to make a statement. Whether you're dressing up for a costume party or a theatrical performance, having a feather boa around your arms is sure to turn heads. When you unpack your boa it will be slightly crushed due to being shipped. Simply either hang it or gently shake it a few times to fluff up the feathers and give it that full glam look. Some feathers may fly off, which is to be expected. Watch any old Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movie where she dances in dresses trimmed with feathers. You will see lightweight feathers floating in the air around them as the couple twirls on the dance floor. I purchased all of the remaining items including lace, fabric, notions, feathers and a few boas, from a Seamstress who made dance and recital costumes. This boa has never been used.
