Description
So, an unphotomanipulated shot of the Jessica Rabbit cosplay. You can see the physical impossibility of the dress.Auntie Taro says: cartoons aren't real!

Physically impossible though that dress may be, it looks fantastic!

Thanks! It was a bitch to get it to function! It took a lot of steel banding and duct tape, and even so, it only stays put for about an hour before it starts to slide...

Yeah, I use steel banding to achieve a lot of my anti-gravity costumes!

Well, that steel banding does and incredible job and you should be proud! I know I'm thrilled just to see it!

Yes! I had a steel-banding frame literally taped to my stomach! It only stayed put for about an hour before the tape began to soften and it started to slide, though.

Hahaha! it was indeed a show-stopper at the con where I wore it, but having to lose my eyebrows for it, dying and cutting my hair for a single day was a bit much!

Thanks very much! Yeah, it was a pretty in-depth make-up job. Had to lose my natural eyebrows entirely to manage hers.

it was one of the hardest ones to do, simply because cartoon physics don't work outside toontown!

That top half looks like it doesn't fit, but I know it does. XD It's a great image.

It fits, but the tape had warmed up by this point and the frame had slid down my torso an inch or so, causeing it to gape a bit. A very frustrating costume to wear, i tell you.

Oooh, okay! XD That makes sense.
Good lord, I can't imagine me wearing anything remotely similar, but you definitely got the bod to wear it.

Thanks very much~ It was the most painful costume I've done to date, which surprised me because it was so supposedly simple. ;

I have to say, I adore you.
Your figure is absolutely beautiful, and your breasts are immaculate.
One of the best Jessica Rabbit cosplays I have seen, you look just like her!

Thank you very much! It was an excersize in physics to make the thing stay on without cheater straps or changing the shape of the dress. I really appreciate your approval! Thank you~

You have a nice figure, but...I don't think you are wearing that dress right....
Those cups are suppose to hold the breasts not be in front of them...
You will need to increase the cup side on the dress, but It will make you look more like Mrs.Rabbit.
Constructive...critisism.
Overall it was a good job!

tarorae In reply to gamma-lunas [2009-09-19 16:53:17 +0000 UTC]
Actually, the problem is the dress had no back (as I was wanting to make the shape proper, and that's the biggest mistake I've seen in other attempted Jessica cosplays), so it had to be rigged to a steel frame in order to hold its shape. Then the steel frame had to be duck-taped to my stomach and spirit gummed to my breasts. Unfortunately, the spirit gum didn't stick to the materials the dress was made of at all, and the heat of my body in combination with the weight of my breasts caused the tape to melt and slide just enough, pushing the frame away from me slightly so as to get that effect.
If you've looked at the animation you'll see the cups don't hold the breasts at all, they actually just "stick" to the front of her breasts, which is not physically possible for a non-animated girl with breasts not made out of silicone.
The day after I figured out a better method of taking that required two people instead of just me taping myself. However, by then the photoshoot was over.
