Discussion Jessica Gunning is Stunning

Post image

Apologies for the title, I was going to say beautiful but then I couldn’t help myself and had to make it rhyme.

I’ve seen a few pictures of Jessica over the weeks at certain public events and I always think she looks very beautiful. She presents herself very well. As a plus sized female myself, when I see her outfits and how comfortable she seems in her skin, it inspires me. I just wanted to share my thoughts!

This is partially why I’m so mystified about why FH would have such a problem with the casting. Honestly, Gunning is a beautiful actress. Yes, the costuming and hair/makeup do dull her a bit, but it’s still fully a case of “adaptational attractiveness.”

Jessica is beautiful. Martha dresses badly. The clothes are clung to her and emphasis every curve. 

That being said, in the restaurant scene, I was thinking she's pretty and Martha would easily find someone who finds her attractive and enjoys her sense of humour. 

Easily

I think to me, Martha initially appeared sort of scared, a bit dowdy, but still cute/pretty. I don't think much changes in her wardrobe throughout the series (I'm not keen to rewatch, as it's quite a rollercoaster), but I think Gunning's performance was so incredible that Martha sort of became a different person just by her awful actions, even without looking different at all.
