Help me with my raven costume

I need to tap into all the great creativity here on my very talented friend's list!

After finding a beautiful raven mask at Pottery Barn (of all places), I decided to be a raven for Halloween. OK, so I have the mask, which is very elegant with a mass of dyed black coque feathers, black glitter and a little sequins. I also have a black coque feather collar, and I'll probably wear the corset in that photo, too. So...give me some more ideas under $50!! I could get wings, but the event is really crowded, and I fear I'll get sick of spilling everyone's drink/knocking people in the face with them. Alternatives? I did a google search and saw this, so wanted to let you know I've seen this link already, but it didn't show me anything new.

I also found this coque feather trim: http://cgi.ebay.com/Coque-feather-fringe-72-inches-black-irridescent-trim_W0QQitemZ170385100169QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item27abbe4d89&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 What can I do with it? Sew it up the length of my gloves? Something around my shoulders somehow?

Other ideas?

Thanks, everyone!!
