Jessica Designs (skirts and shirts) (Patreon)

Alrighty then, next up is Jessica! There's a few things to go over with her design. As with the Elena outfit poll, the images are included to provide visual examples and are not representative of the final sprites.

TLDR:Between Jessica and Sophia, who wears a Pleated Skirt and who wears a Plain Skirt?What color and type of shirt for Jessica's initial workout clothes?

Jessica's main color is red (despite how good she looks in black), so her design should incorporate reds as a primary (with blacks as a secondary). With her running background, she'd probably want to wear things that are comfortable and cute, but not revealing (at least at the start). Her underwear, dress, and bikini outfits will remain primarily black (with red accents when appropriate).

Because her charm point is her legs and hips, it makes sense for her outfit to showcase those assets. So, a skirt makes the most sense for her casual outfit. This brings us to the first question : Plain Skirt or Pleated Skirt? 

Jessica and Sophia both wear skirts, so I want to make sure they wear different types of skirts.  One of them will wear a pleated skirt, and the other a plain skirt. Personally, I think a pleated skirt works better for Jessica, since it is looser and doesn't restrict her movement, which is perfect for someone who is a runner. You do lose out on it hugging her legs as tightly, but I think that's an acceptable compromise since a she'd probably destroy a tighter skirt. This also lets Sophia wear the more business like plain skirt (which is fitting for her character).

As for Jessica's gym outfit, we have quite a few options. Her size 1 and size 2 gym outfits will remain the same, since the sports bra and shorts combo look amazing on her. The question is what to do for her size 0 starting gym outfit. Her original outfit was the result of NAI v1's RNG generation for a red workout outfit, so I want to take this opportunity to deliberately design her gym outfit. She's a runner, so her workout attire should be something comfortable for both the gym and running, so loose and light gym shorts make the most sense. The question then is her top and the colors. Her full red outfit was nice, but I think it's too much red (not to mention she switches to a black sports bra and shorts combo later). I also can't use a white shirt and red shorts combo, because those are Mia's outfit colors. So, there are a few questions here :Gym Shirt or Plain T-shirt?White Shirt or Red Shirt?Black Shorts or Red Shorts?

Jessica will eventually lose the shirt for a sports bra later, but I still want her to look as good as possible (especially since she can stay small for quite a while). No one else wears a red shirt except Jessica (when she's size 2), but personally I think the white gym shirt with red stripes looks best. This would also follow the trend of outfits becoming more vibrant and revealing as the girls grow. I also personally prefer the black shorts, that way Mia can have the monopoly on red shorts.

So, what do all you wonderful supporters think? Who should get what kind of skirt? What colors should Jessica's initial gym outfit be? What kind of shirt should she wear when she's at the gym or out running? Once again you can select multiple options, so let me know what you think!
