Basic Trope: Character wears, or has, feathers arranged in a fantail, like a peacock's flared tail.
- Straight: Alice's showgirl outfit includes a large fantail of large, brightly colored feathers.
- Exaggerated: Alice's tail has several layers of feathers, which spread out, layer by layer, at the push of a hidden button, until the tail is half as large as the stage wall.
- Downplayed: Alice's showgirl outfit has some feathers around the waist, but just a few in a fantail formation.
- Justified: Alice is a humanoid avian creature, and a bunch of large feathers grow from her waist, which hang like a Showgirl Skirt normally and fan upward for mating.
- Inverted:
- Alice is an anthropomorphic peacock, but even though she has the blue feathers of males, she lacks the tail feathers.
- Bob is a Peacock Man, with a full tail fan.
- Subverted:
- Alice is a Drag Queen dressed as a Vegas showgirl for a performance.
- Bob appears to be an anthropomorphic Peacock Girl to the humans he meets, but is actually a male of his species.
- Double Subverted: ???
- Parodied: ???
- Zig Zagged: ???
- Averted: ???
- Enforced: The movie is being filmed in Arizona, but a few scenes are supposed to take place in Vegas, so they need some showgirls on a stage to sell this.
- Lampshaded: ???
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: Bob is one of those guys oblivious to girls coming on to him, so Alice holds a large peacock feather fan behind her back when she asks him out, so that the symbolism will make it clear.
- Defied: ???
- Discussed: ???
- Conversed: ???
