No other dance fashion accessory embodies the glamour and opulence of Ballroom Dancing as feathers. Think Hollywood, Charleston, the 20s Rio, Venice, think of the time when Ballroom Dance started: the most luxurious of all being the ostrich feather boa. Our luxury 5ply feather boas consist of 5 layers of fringe feathers twisted around a Marabo covered string core. Dyed to match any DSI colour in 4 metres units.  Our most popular colours, Black and White are avaialble from stock at a minimum purchase unit of 1 metre, while for all other colours the minimum purchase unit is 4metres, so you will have to puchase multiples of 4 metres.
For a complete feathered Ballroom skirt we offer 2ply ostrich feather fringes, which can be individually attached to visually stunning effect. Identical to the luxury ostrich boas, these are dyed to match our DSI colours, the most popular dance colours being avaialble from stock. To set a fashion statement for any performance and dance costume we offer feeler feathers, also known as antennas, in units of 10cm.
To complement our stunning range of shaded fabrics we offer identically shaded coque feathers, another variation of our dance trimmings.

Fringes are a timeless favourite in dance fashion, especially for Latin dresses, where their fluid motion enhances every step and turn, creating a striking visual effect. Today, fringes have transcended their Latin dreses roots, becoming a popular choice for Ballroom dresses, practice wear, and even high fashion.
