disco chicken

Alternative to the common name for the male Indian peafowl or peacock (Pavo cristatus). Takes into account the peacocks’ impressive array of smart, iridescent plumage donned during the breeding season, which echoes the both the dress code and psychedelic strobe-induced trances experienced by revellers in 1980’s nightclubs.

When meeting up in town and admiring a friend’s bold choice of Saturday night threads… “whoah, love the suit bro; you’ve gone full-on disco chicken”.
