My best friend actually convinced me of this Jessica from Roger Rabbit Costume or I would have never had the nerve to actually do this. He purchased partials of the Roger and Jessica Rabbit costume and when I learned that he had done it, I couldn’t back out. He had the red dress. I had to … Read more
