Feather Headbands

Feather headbands are the most recognizable 1920s accessory, with a plume rising on one side of a band worn low across the forehead. Choose from many colors, or browse jeweled styles in our flapper headbands.

1920s Feather Headband Colors

Black and gold are the classic Gatsby picks and match almost any dress. White feathers suit brides and all-white parties. Red, orange, yellow, pink, purple, blue and green bring color to a simple black dress or match a jewel-toned outfit. Multicolor plumes give a playful, burlesque-inspired effect. For a coordinated look, repeat the feather color in your gloves, clutch or lipstick.

Peacock Feather Headband and White Feather Headband

Peacock feathers recall one of the favorite Art Deco motifs and pair beautifully with peacock-pattern sequin dresses. White feathers are soft and bridal, lovely with faux pearls and satin gloves. Store feather headbands in a box so the plumes keep their shape, and refresh flattened feathers with a gentle steam from a distance.
