The Flower - Willow farm
Britannia - Dancing with the Moonlit Knight
Fox head/Red Dress - Not sure what song, something off Foxtrot I'd imagine..
The Slipperman - Slipperman
Old Man - Musical Box
Alien with glowing eyes - Watcher of the Skies
Stocking over face - Battle of Epping Forest
Leather jacket & jeans - Rael

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

The fox head was used in the early days of The Musical Box and was replaced with the old man mask. During I Know What I Like, besides the face paint, Peter wore a strange hat that looks like a Bobby's hat. He also wore a crown of thorns during a section of Supper's Ready. Are there any more that we missed?

     I have a video with Gabriel singing "The Musical Box" in the fox head
with red dress outfit. The great story is that he didn't tell the rest of the
band he'd had the costume made, it was his first, and he just shocked
them by appeared onstage suddenly singing in it, and they were thinking,
"Oh my god, what's this loony doing now?". Then they realized it made for
good press, got on the cover of Melody Maker, but the costumes kept
getting bigger and more bizarre (if that's possible). Listening to the other
Genesis members to this day, if they talk about Gabriel they'll just start
bitching about that goddam Slipperman costume..."He couldn't even get
the goddam mike to his mouth for chrissake!!!"
