Congrats, looks like you had a grand time meeting Jewel! I had the good fortune of getting to meet her last year in Orlando. She was very gracious and funny. It was a terrific experience, and even though I've been going to sci-fi cons for many years, meeting any of the BDHs is a very special thrill.

Jewel is awesome. In fact all of the big damn heroes are awesome. Because of them I'm still a fan.

Happy for ya. Wish there was an appropriate emoticon...but

And while I'm no expert on fancy party dresses, your "girls " did an amazing job. ( And don't let that harpy Banning Miller try to say otherwise.

Polly Gausewitz recreated Kaylee's Cake Dress with real cake frosting. She wrote: "It was only a matter of time until I made it out of cake. I don't have an obsession with this dress! What are you talking about?? Yes I know the doll is creepy, but when you're shopping for Barbies at the dollar store you don't have a lot of options."

Polly Gausewitz is now a costumer who makes Kaylee's party dress and much more. Her motto is: “If it can be sewn, I will make it for you. I've started booking costume commissions for the rest of the year.” - May 24, 2011 Journal Entry

This is her latest creation, done on commission, and to be shipped today to the proud owner.

The Technical Stuff
Hoopskirt is the 6-bone cotton hoop skirt from Angel's Bridal on Ebay. The top hoop had to be taken out to get the right length.
Petticoat is poly-cotton broadcloth, 5 layers of ruffles.
Skirt is nylon organza. Both sides of each ruffle have a rolled hem on them, and then were ruffled with a combination of machine ruffling and hand ruffling, and then were sewn onto a white gored skirt.
The bodice is made of off-white poly satin charmeuse and pink slipper satin, both covered with an embroidered organza. I was super lucky and found a very close match to the fabric used in the episode. It even has gold threading embroidered in it.
There is more pictures of the dress here:
