Jessica Rabbit - Who framed Roger Rabbit
Costume made & modeled by me
photo by Anna Fisher [link]
Jessica Rabbit has always been one of the most mesmerizing cartoon characters to me - as a kid she made me watch the movie over and over again, and as a cosplayer, she was always a huge challenge for me to portrait. I've been collecting materials for her for almost 2 years, and wanted to make this costume to the best to my abilities.
The shape is not photoshopped, just clever cosplay engineering.
I drafted & made a custom corset to create the extreme shape and then made the dress to fit over it. I engineered 2 Victoria's Secret Miraculous bras into the corset, which is steel boned coutil. The extreme illusion is created by pulling in the waist, padding the top and wearing a booty bump hahaha.
The dress itself is made from a spandex sequin fabric, and 1000+ S20 Swarovski crystals are glued on the fabric for
extra bling, tedious time consuming handywork with help from Mary Cahela. I specifically chose pink instead of red for the dress because in the movie her famous singing scene features a pink dress. I also like the color combo: orange hair/pink dress/purple gloves more than the red dress which can sometimes come across as "lady of the night" in certain lighting. Pink makes the entire outfit look more cartoon-y!
Here is a reference image of Jessica in the pink dress.
Here is a youtube video of Jessica in the pink dress doing her famous stage performance from the movie.
Here is a work in progress collage of my Jessica Rabbit dress.
I adore my wig which is a Matilda from Arda Wigs ! Styled with help from Ara Fernando!
I also went with the route of cartoon makeup, covering up my eyebrows and painting over them. It was a risky choice for makeup, and since Dragoncon I got my share of comments about going drag lol, but when I decided to portray such an iconic character as Jessica Rabbit, I didn't want to fall short of the makeup when everything else was so exaggerated.

HELLOOOOOO NURSE!!!
THat's absolutely amazing and flawless. You made an almost (if not exact) perfect real life version of Jessica Rabit, the best one (even including photoshops) I've ever seen and it's "natural". (Meaning not photshopped) Well done. (I can't imagine how difficult it would be to wear that outfit)

I'm sure there is a corset involved in order to get that waistline, but [please don't take this the wrong way] is everything else real....?

Read the description. Corset and several heavily padded bras.

If you read the description she explains it there; both the corset and the boobs.
It's there for a reason, y'know -.-

Holy shit, settle the fuck down lady, I must have missed it. Jesus christ.

Why are you flipping your shit at me? I didn't even get angry or use any kind of wording to seem upset. I was just saying to read the description more carefully, since she wrote it to answer questions like this.
I think I should be asking you to 'settle the fuck down', really.

Look, I'm sorry. Yesterday was a very rough day for me, so I snapped because you weren't the only one who posted a responce like that to me, and I read it in a way that came off as hostile.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Still doesn't give you the right to say those kinds of things to a complete stranger. And there was only one other response so.
But whatever, I suppose. I hope today went better for you then if yesterday was so rough.

Oh man this is so amazing!!! Excellent cosplay and clever techniques used to get the right contour without the use of having to photoshop the picture either! This is so superb and brings back such fond memories of the movie too. I also enjoyed it as a kid and still do today~ Awesome work!! Keep up the epic cosplay!

are you kidding me?!?! o-o how did she get her waist like that... that... that isn't HUMANLY possible
👍: 0 ⏩: 4
It's proper physical manipulation, she used a corset so her waist was thin, but made it look even more thin by wearing booty padding and working in that humongous breast amplifier with the two victoria's secret bras into the dress.

corsets are a very clever thing.

Um, while this is amazing and it blows my mind how much effort you put into it and how perfect it looks, I can't help but think that this just had to be the single most uncomfortable dress ever worn lol

Congrats so much for this amazing job.
You look just like jessica. Is incredible.
And thats not easy, because she have a very particular shape.
I cant stop thinking in the way you made this production.
Have you used some efects in photoshop?
Its very inspiring...now I want to start to draw more and more...and improve in my drawing skills (if I have one hehe)

Um, Did you butcher yourself in photoshop? and make your breasts look fake? or did you get implants?

Reading the author comment would save you a lot of embarrassment.

It's called pushup bras, corsets, dress shaping, and lighting.

You really don't need to be rude if you don't bother to read the /long/ explanation. Or even bother to see if she looks like this in other cosplays.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Um, did you bother to read the artist comments? She's put two different bras into a handmade corset. No need to be an ass about something if you won't take the time to read about it.

I know, her breast look fake, and and she has a only a mother can love

Just another ugly person who can't draw. Is that why you're here? lol

How about you stop making rude comments about her and read about her amazing creativity with how she acquired this look? It took a lot of clever engineering for her to achieve this, you should respect that.

Amazing! At first I thought this was drastically photoshopped. I am here at my monitor in awe after reading about the cosplay engineering!

You look quite lovely, Yaya, though I can only imagine how much pain you were in with the corset.
