Wicked Peacock is LIVE!

It is with excitement and gratitude that we go live with our beta site Wicked Peacock, an on-line marketplace featuring the work of emerging accessory designers from across the United States.

Who we are & what we do: At Wicked Peacock, we LOVE accessories, and value style and quality. We seek to connect emerging designers with people who look for distinctive, hand-made, high-quality accessories. We pride ourselves on our  CURATORIAL EDGE and HIGH STANDARDS of excellence, hand-selecting all of the pieces and designers on the site. We are committed to fostering and celebrating artisan entrepreneurship, and do as much as we can to promote our selection of designers.



Wicked Peacock’s is an evolution story. What was originally Wicked Peacock Designs, an independent jewelry label, the company grew when founder, Silvana Costa, had an epiphany.
“I was in my studio visioning Wicked Peacock, watching it become something bigger than myself designing jewelry. It came to focus as a style, a way of being and expression. From that moment, I knew Wicked Peacock wasn’t just about me or my jewelry anymore. The vision was to create a e-commerce platform showcasing and promoting the work of amazingly talented designers.”



Wicked Peacock luvvs and thanks all of the Peacocks out there–and everyone who’s been involved to bring this vision to life! We hope you enjoy our selection of designers and accessories!

We are so grateful especially to our friends and family for their encouragement, support and luv along the way!

Collar Necklaces: Bold & Layered


Sumptuous kaleidoscopic prints are de rigueur for spring. Bold and soft feminine patterns mix well with solid-colored accessories to add a pop.  For a layered effect, wear two as seen here on Sydney.
Necklaces from Boston-based designer, Magdalena Stokalska. Rings from Silvana Costa, also of Boston.

Look Book: Friendship Bracelets


Silvana Costa of the Wicked Peacock team and Fashion Blogger Nicolle Saylor got together for a friendship kind of neon shoot. "We pulled into this abandon lot, saw the motorcycle, and I said to Nicolle, 'Um, yeah!' The location was super sketchy. I really think we were spray painting the door to a some kind of secret clubhouse. There were people inside that didn't come out. They had to have known we were there."








The photo shoot, which was as vibrant as it was spontaneous, features fun and flirty friendship and string bracelets from Boston-based designer, Silvana Costa. This fun, summer bracelet is the perfect touch of neon!

Vintage pewter anchor attached to a self-adjusting nylon string bracelet. Worn as a single strand or layered with bangles, watches and friendship bands.

We say, "Ahoy" or "Brrrrrrrroooommmmm, Brrrrrooommm!"
