Outerwear made from feathers

The upper part can be divided into three sections: In the upper two there are steps that end in meanders. They are made of red, blue and yellow feathers. The motifs complement each other upside down or the right way round. The third band features blue spiral meanders on an alternating red and yellow background. Below this are blue, red and yellow stripes and a border of white and pink feathers.
