Today i received one call from one senior temple devotee. I smiled receiving his call thinking about service opportunity to my beloved Krishna-Balaram. He asked me to share one photograph of Shri Rasbihariji which i had shown him earlier for dressing our Krishna-Balaram in similar peacock outfits, he appreciated the idea. He is in Vrindavan market today purchasing for their lordships and i am also thinking about getting some more facts related to peacock outfits as Chandan-Yatra is going on and in these summer days, devotees love to dress their lordships in different opulent and natural attire.Let us wait in meditation until their lordship gets new outfits made up of peacock feathers.
Here is one quote from SB 10.21.10
In Vrndavana, the peacocks request Krsna, 'Govinda, please make us dance.' Thus Krsna plays His flute, and they surround Him in a circle and dance in time with the rhythm of His melody. And while standing in the midst of their dancing, He also sings and dances. Then those peacocks, who are fully satisfied with His musical performance, out of gratitude offer for His pleasure their own divine feathers. In the usual manner of musical performers, Krsna gladly accepts these presentations and places a feather upon the turban atop His head. Gentle animals such as deer and doves greatly relish the transcendental entertainment presented by Krsna, and to get a good view they flock to the peaks of hills. Then, as they watch the breathtaking program, they become stunned in ecstasy.

Here are some darshan from ISKCON Vrindavana when their lordships dressed up in peacock feather dress.

Srila Gopâl Bhatta Goswâmi says –The peacock feather signifies the all-attractiveness of the extravagant beauty of Sri Krishna – Although He has many ornaments of gold and gemstones, Sri Krishna prefers to don peacock-feathers, natural colours and ornaments of tender petals, leaves etc. This shows His adolescent dalliance.
When the peacocks see Sri Krishna locked in embrace with the Braja-beauties, they get the impression of a cloud bedecked with lightning. Hence, they start dancing robustly displaying their colourful plumage. Sri Krishna too lovingly picks up the feathers shed by them, and puts them in His crown. Whenever He sees these peacock-feathers, He is reminded of the passionately loosened tresses (of the Gopis) and how they gaze at Him without blinking.
