When making this vogue dress, Jessica had in mind a vintage 1950's Marilyn Monroe style type of dress.  She wanted a color that complimented her skin and hair color and picked this beautiful deep aqua blue satin fabric.

After watching "Pride and Prejudice", Jessica wanted to make an outfit similar to the gowns the girls wore in the movie.  However, she didn't want it to be gown length, so that she could wear it out to dinner, or to a show. She wanted the top bodice, neckline, and sleeves to be of the style they wore. She trimmed part of the neckline, and bottom of the sleeves in a string of beautiful matching ribbon and gems.

One of the first historical things Jessica  made was this antebellum skirt.  She was inspired to make this after watching "Gone with the Wind."

If ever there was a contest on Harry Potter, Jessica would win by far.  She made this entire outfit, including the books and wand, to be "Hermione" for Halloween.

Jessica bought a long sleeve sage green sweater at a vintage shop for $5.00.  She cut it up, sewed it back together, and designed it into this perfect cute little halter top to go with jeans on a summers day.

One of Jessica's biggest accomplishments was making her senior prom gown. Inspired by Natalie Portman in Star Wars II, she made a replica of the "Picnic Dress" Natalie wore in the fields when falling in love with Anakin Sky Walker. The actual color of the gown she made was true to the color shown on Natalie Portman, however the bright sunlight faded the photos.

We certainly can't leave out Princess Leia.  Here is Jessica (left) in her Princess Leia costume from Star Wars that she made for Halloween. (Also in photo some friends from school as a "1920's Flapper" and one of the "Ghost Busters.")
