It's slowly coming up to being a full year since Jessica Nigri debuted her Umbreon gijinka at Blizzcon that year. Shortly after the positive reception that cosplay received, Jess decided to go crazy and unleash her creative mind by making more. To be more specific, gijinkas of every single other Eeveelution including Eevee! You may have noticed that it says Part 1 in the title. This is because Jessica still has Vaporeon and Jolteon to finish/shoot. What this showcase will have is basically every other outfit she's done without the ones I mentioned. If anything, a teaser for Jolteon since there's only 1 picture I have of her wearing it. I could have waited until those were finished but I wanted to just full on gush about every other outfit that Jessica has done. These if anything are the ones that really show me Jessica's creative side on how she does cosplay. I couldn't be more inspired by these cosplays <3.
Be warned, there's lots of photos here so I do hope you enjoy them. With that little update why don't we jump on in with Eevee? For the Normal type, Jess went with a medieval type of theme from the poofy shoulder pieces and her pants. The color scheme is brown and an almost golden like tan. The ears are stood straight up and she even added in a little crown inserted between them. White fluff is seen on the ends of her sleeves and pants as well. The neckpiece is done in a similar fashion. Black stockings and flat shoes with fur added round out the rest of this cosplay. The brown vest looks super soft in terms of texture.

As I looked at the other cosplays, I noticed that some certain sets are similar design wise. You can see that here with Glaceon and Flareon. Both of which have a kimono like main suit. Glaceon as you can see on the right has that icy blue color as part of her sash, lining the edges near her chest as well as the sleeves. Speaking of which, the sleeves are incredibly large and long with them both practically covering her arms and hands. The designs of the stripes are absolutely gorgeous and fitting for Glaceon. Fur is also seen on the edges of her sleeves and boots. Yep those look like the kind of boots you'd possibly wear in the winter? Light blue and laced up a bunch!
The centerpiece of Jessica's ears is the diamond seen on Glaceon. The ears were done with the same materials as the diamond. I also love the super icy blue wig Jess is wearing here. The close up I have of it farther down really shows her beautiful eyes and smile <3. Moving to Flareon, you can see what I meant by similar design choices. Mainly in the kimono concept. Varying shades of red and orange are seen in the stripe patterns on her sash and sleeves. The little line of makeup coming down from Jess' bottom lip is a cute touch. Ears are done with an intricate pattern on the outside with black on the inside. The headband itself where they're located on is covered in white fur.

If you can also see in the above photo, Jess has her hair adorned with autumn flowers plus a cute little red sun umbrella. Definitely can see the firey passion this cosplay brings. Both Flareon and Glaceon seem to show off her legs more here. Umbreon and Espeon I feel like I can group together since they're even more similar in design and concept. In a way it's almost fitting considering they both debuted in Pokemon Gold/Silver. Both of these have the mystic/belly dancer look to them. Don't believe me? Check out the photos. Umbreon and Espeon both have giant hoods over Jess' head as well as scarves. The ears also look super fluffy and full of volume in comparison to the other ears which look flat.

Both include gem adornments in the center of her bras along with arm bands. They do differ in some areas however, Espeon has more focus on the ears with multiple coming out of the hood as well as a drape covering the lower areas. There's also the beads hanging over Jessica's stomach. Umbreon has very loose/see-through pants held up by a belt that's covered in his signature coloring. The center piece on her bra here is much more larger and more extravagant. Beads are also draping over much like Espeon.
The makeup design is the exact same with a red line coming underneath her eyes. These definitely are some of my favorites with my eye on getting an Espeon print eventually when I see Jessica again :). Leafeon was debuted over in the spring of this year and I find it very fitting since this gijinka has that spring look/feel to it. Mixtures of light brown, green and gold decorate it this time. Similar to the previous 2 Eeveelutions, a hood is involved and full covering pants as well. Brown boots are seen down at the bottom. The differing parts include the top stretching farther instead of just ending at the bra. Plus the hood has a very long cape coming off at the end of it.

Coming off at the end of the cape are pointy spots which are probably a callback to Leafeon's design. Jess also applied makeup with green covering her eyes. Lastly for this feature, is her Sylveon which is just pure cotton candy/bubble gum cuteness. Almost gives off a Playboy bunny/Rave outfit kinda vibe and Jess makes it work. Her bra here is probably the most crowded one out of the others that involve one. Varying selections of white, light blue, pink, purple, seriously it's so adorable! Sylveon's signature bow can be seen hanging down at the bottom of one of the ears. Jessica's bottom piece here is exploding with frills and soft material coming off the sides. I love the stockings here as they have a lace design to them. Beads are also hanging down near her stomach here as well.

For each of her Eeveelutions, Jessica was on point with wig choices and poses. Sylveon has a cream like wig with pink inserts (now I want to eat some cake 0-0), Umbreon is a short black wig with a very attractive cut, Espeon is the right shade of purple, Leafeon is almost like a yellow-green shade, and Flareon is just fire red through and through. There's also an abundance of pink plastic hearts on Sylveon as you can see in the picture on the left.
I covered I think as much as I could so apologies if I missed other parts of the Eeveelutions. Here comes the fun part with an explosion of photos! Just take a look at some of Jess' creativity and I bet you can see the love she has for them and Pokemon in general! Enjoy everyone :).
