You may not be a fairy living in the woodland, jungle, or even deserts. But if you are reading this post, it is either because you believe in these fascinating little creatures, because you feel like a fairy yourself, or because you would love to know how it feels like to look like one and wear fairy wings.
Although we all wish we could drink a Polyjuice potion from Harry Potter and transfigure into a fairy for a few hours, we can’t. Thus, the most accessible way to feel like a fairy in the real world is by wearing a fairy costume, and its iconic fairy wings.
There are other ways to feel like a fairy, and you can read them here in our fairy aesthetic guide
All the wings I chose for this post – and all the other posts in this site – are set in a magical and aesthetically pleasing scenario. That’s because we believe aesthetics tell a visual story and makes the products so much more relatable than just the image of them on a white background.

Some to the sun their insect-wings
unfold,
Walft on the breeze, or sink in clouds of gold.
Transparent forms, to fine for
mortal sight,
Their fluid bodies half dissolv’d in light,
Loose to the wind their airy
garments flew
Thing glitt’ring textures of the filmy dew;
Dipp’d in he richest tincture of
the skies,
Where light disports in every-mingling
dyes,
While ev’ry beam new transient
colour flings,
Colours that change when’r they wave
their wings
