I painted a Jeff Goldblum Skirt *and i regret absolutely nothing* 

HI FRENS! So sorry for the late upload, but it was stuck in "review limbo" and I don't think it would've gotten approval until Monday. Ain't nobody got time for that so I just went ahead and removed the ad so I could post 😂😂 I had to re-order the captions so those should be up soon! Okay that's it I LOVE YOU BYE!!!!

I’m glad I exist in a world where this also exists. I hope Spice Daddy Jeff sees this and appreciates your ART.

Put a petticoat underneath! Or another skirt; that will fluff it out and feature Mr. Goldblum more prominently. 👌

To avoid the crumpling: DONT FORGET THE PETTICOAT! THAT'S THE POODLE SKIRT STAPLE!

Someone going through Rachel's closet: Why do you have a skirt with Jeff Goldblum on it? Rachel: What else would I wear to a new Jurassic Park movie? Normal clothing?

This skirt has the same potential as a skirt with pockets.. "i love your skirt" " OH THANKS! IT HAS JEFF GOLDBLUM ON IT" Love it :D

This video has the exact same vibe as when Rachel turned herself into Gandalf. I mean that in the best way possible.

Rachel: We’ll see how this turns out, I’m real nervous. Also Rachel: *creates a masterpiece *

Now I've never met Jeff Goldblum but I feel in my soul that he would LOVE THIS. Someone needs to show this to him, seriously.

"Silly"? Jeff Goldblum's glistening torso on a pleather circle skirt is exactly what the world needs right now!!

She is so hard on herself lol. That is a damn near perfect Jeff Goldblum. Anyone who has ever seen that movie will recognize it. I also think Jeff would be pleased as punch to see this video.

When I saw that clip of the lady getting judged for wearing her outfits it genuinely made me kinda sad, like she’s just doing her thang and honestly themed outfits are super fun

Essence of Goldblum. That is definitely something that I would pay $ for. I think Jeff would be very honoured (and amused) at your wearable portrayal of him. I also adore the fact that the dinosaur prints remind me of hearts. We all love Jeff Goldblum. Looks great! Thanks again, Rachel

Rachel would 100% be that person that gets chased by a dinosaur in Jurassic Park and while full-on sprinting she screams "That's the best day of my life!"

It was really cool seeing how the face started off looking nothing like Jeff Goldblum, and I was for sure thinking you were going to give up and do the more cartoony version of the face instead, but then you kept adding colours and it got closer and closer until it really looked like him. It's a fun reminder that just because it doesn't work out straight away doesn't mean it's a failure

A poodle skirt is not the weirdest thing Jeff Goldblum has been added to, and that's why I love his fanbase. This turned out absolutely epic and amazing!

"Yuh, step on me dad-dee" I lost it.

MY. GOD. THIS IS WHAT QUEENS DO. THIS. DRAW JEFF GOLDBLUM ON A VINTAGE SKIRT. I pray for you girl

For the leather debacle: (edit: here change "leather" for "skin" or "resource") Leather is usually a side product regardless if it's going to be used or not. The problem with the sustentability movement would fall into the meat industry, not the leather industry. A lot of leather brands (at least in my country) are family owned and have been working for years, they're mostly small businesses (compared to a corporate like Inditex that would produce PU Leather aka plastic) hence the higher price, however leather (if taken care properly) LAST FOREVER. Which is also an extra point for having pieces that are both timeless and aren't going to breakdown fast (like said PU Leather). For me, buying Brand New leather is alright, but if you are worried about the environment impact, leather fairs with local expositors and thrifting are the best options. Leather is also an incredibly versatile material, it's used for clothes, shoes, harnesses (both for people and animals), accessories, furniture, etc. And again, as long as you take proper care of it, it may outlive you which is more than we can say about a lot of clothes. Tl; dr Leather is a side product from the meat industry, it's going to be there regardless it's used or not, if it's used, it's going to be one of the steadiest and lasting materials, buying leather support local business

There are moments in this life, in the midst of everything, that just bring you a pure, overwhelming feeling of joy. This video did that for me. WHAT a project.

Rachel: *paints an incredible portrait of Jeff Goldblum* “I don’t know, it’s not an exact portrait I guess” My dumbass who can’t paint near as well despite taking college classes in painting: GIRL.

Themed outfit? No. This is everyday wear. This is what I'd be wearing to my step grandpa's funeral. This is formalwear. Beachwear. Everywhere. This is a wardrobe essential, rachel, and i want one.

I've got it. Rachel is the heir of Jenna Marbles' energy. Just watching 01 video from her makes you feel 10000% better

Rachel is like the arty carefree mom none of us ever had.

Please, crafting gods, let Jeff Goldblum see this skirt in all its glory!

Please for all that is wholesome in this world, let Jeff Goldblum not only watch this video, but film even just a 5 second reaction

If you add lots of fluffy petticoats to hold the skirt out a bit, you might see more of that fabulous painting.

This WAS silly. Thank God for silliness! As always, I am super impressed with your skill as an artist, cuz that is totally Jeff Goldblum right there on your skirt!

You literally captured his energy in his facial details. Girl, you are genuinely a fabulous *Artist* !! I cannot wait for the day when *Jeff* comes across this. I think he's going to love it^_^

Based in the way he's reacted to folk getting tattoos of him- I feel like Jeff would be ALLLLLL for this! A petticoat may help with him getting hidden in the folds annnnnd if you go for cotton/linen should make the pleather more swampy weather friendly since a more breathable fabric will be between you and it! 😊

that jennifer coolidge impression was spot on omg

The intensity with which I hope Jeff sees this.... is immeasurable.....

As a Floridian, can confirm that “pleather” and “Florida” should never be used in the same sentence unless it’s “Do not wear pleather in Florida” 😂

I feel like a petticoat or two would help the circle stand out enough to show off aaaall your glorious artwork maybe?? This was a trip, thank you. XDD

I think a linen or cotton petticoat would not only help reveal the picture more but also be a great way to make a pleather skirt more viable in unpleasant weather. The natural fibers will help the air flow and wick away moisture.

My favorite video I’ve watched this week 🥰 I’ve been soul-crushingly depressed and I laughed so much during this video my face hurts.😍Gorgeous art! You’re incredibly talented as alway, thank you for the content!🙏💕

I seriously hope Jeff finds this video and reacts… I can imagine at the red lips part him saying, ‘nope, not too much.’ 😂

As Stoick the Vast would say to Hiccup- "Turns out all we needed was a little more of this" (gestures to all of Rachel Maksy)

This was so much fun! And you nailed him! The “Essence of Jeff”! You’ve already heard wear a petticoat… I have to send this to my daughter. She has her collection of Dino’s on the shelf and the Funko Pop of Jeff in this exact pose lying in front of them. She is going to love this video.

your Jennifer Coolidge impression is * chef's kiss *

Jeff is a wonderful human. The cousin of my HS best friend had terminal cancer and her wedding was Jurassic Park themed and Jeff made a video for her to play at the wedding. ❤️ She passed a short while later but he made her wedding even more special and memorable.

My parents do not watch any youtube, ever. I showed them this and they were genuinely extremely impressed because they're big jurassic park fans. I watch all your videos and love whatever you do, especially these kind of whimsical creations :)

💖 you have the best vibe. I still have your "good enough" stored away in my head to be played like a sound effect in a radio show for when I need to cut my perfectionism short... and "let's f*ck around and see what happens" is about to make it into that sound effect collection as well.

Im having a super bad day, i feel so unloved and attacked by everyone (i know its just in my mind) but tje only things today that make me feel comfy, loved and safe are Jungkooks song and your video Rachel. Tysm for your incredible content, i know its hard.

Legendary content from the queen once again

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH The idea of putting various meme-y type images on a skirt instead of a poodle is bringing me so much serotonin.

There’s nothing more relatable to me than Rachel going “I’m gonna paint a portrait of Jeff Goldblum today” and killing the shit out of it

I actually love it when there’s just a slither of Goldblum on show and it just happens to be his chest. That’s the part we all want to see.

ADDENDUM: This may be my favourite thing you've ever done. My BFF has a Jeff Goldblum prayer candle, and I think it's just been overthrown.

They were pretty judgey on anything unique on What Not to Wear. If they remade the show today the “shopping spree” money should be spent on tailoring their current wardrobe. Part of the reason that celebs look so well dressed is that everything is tailored, from their jeans to their T-shirt’s (not including: $$$, genetics, expensive skincare, professional makeup, chefs, personal trainer, disordered eating, cosmetic procedures, photoshop, etc)

This is iconic. For a person who watched the first Jurassic Park movie in a drive-in theater with three small children (we screamed A LOT), this is pure GOLD. I love it! ❤ I knew from the beginning you would be one of my all time favorite RU-vidrs. Forever RACHEL.

This video gives off the Gandalf video vibes. Rachel, stop apologizing, WE ARE HERE FOR THE SILLY PROJECTS! GIVE THEM TO US, GODMOTHER OF CHAOTIC CRAFTING!

“I need to stop making such hefty cosplays” that’s a mood, seeing as I made Jaskiers leather jacket from season 2 of the Witcher using Upholstery leather 😅

This is a bit random, but I wonder if a really cool project for you mightn’t be a “But Make It Vintage” for Pippi Longstocking! I feel like the layering of her costume would be an interesting challenge.

It makes me sad that I will never embody this level of genius. Art and fashion design peaked with this

OMG that Jennifer Coolidge impression was spot on and made me LMAO! 🤣😂🤣😂

Rachel flashing us with Jeff Goldblum is exactly the energy I need today

We would like to give Rachel Maksy the award for ‘Best Skirt’ for her ‘Ode to Jeff Goldblum’ skirt.

Your jennifer coolidge impression was spot on

This is my favortie kind of video: knowledgable and charismatic person breaking down and showing a quirky project step by step with interesting editing and good beats of entertainment along the way. It's the best.

The "muppet hand" made me laugh a bit too hard, because you handing Lady Catherine a drawing of a middle finger and telling her that hands are hard lives rent-free in my brain

The way Rachel loving crafts Jeff Goldblum’s torso, frizzy hair and chiseled features = chef kiss!

I really hope Jeff Goldblum sees this video! Spectacular, Rachel!😊👍

Love a themed outfit! I theme my outfits even just subtlety most days I leave the house, makes me sad if I can't find stuff in my wardrobe to theme myself for a movie! This is why I have so many earrings that I've made! For the jurassic world movie I already have dinosaur dungarees and earrings, going to see top gun this eve - I have earrings and t-shirt with planes on!

So basically the reason you can't make an environmentally friendly faux leather is down to the fact that it doesn't last and the fact that it doesnt last is down to the way it's made. Faux leather is basically flexible plastic on a fabric backing. In order to produce faux leather (yes even the self proclaimed 'fruit leather' made from plant fibers) you must add plasticizers to make it flexible. Plasticizers are notoriously unstable and tend to with dry out (I'm sure you've handled crunchy peeling pleather before) or leak out (think of that awefull sticky layer vintage toys and electronics often have). There are different "recipes" for faux leather and some is more stable then others but eventually it will suffer either reversion (getting sticky) or dry rotting (disentigration). We just do not have the tech to mimic real leather without this happening. Real leather holds up because it's an organic material. It can still be bad for the environment but it wins in the long run because it lasts so much longer than faux leather. It can be reconditioned and is pourus enough to absorb oils and regain it's flexibility. People use saddles that are over 100 years old today if they were well maintained. Even with the best of care faux leather comes off the manufacturer line with a built in expiration date. The chemicals that let it flex and bend like a real animal hide are it's destruction in the long run.

A decent size petticoat may help his visibility when just standing! 🥰 I absolutely love the finished product and it's making me want to make a leather circle skirt 👀😂

Maybe if you put a petticoat or two on under it the skirt would become fuller and allow you to fully see Jeff in all his glory. That being said this is absolutely amazing as is!!!

I personally would be honoured to have Jeff-Nips on forever visible that skirt - the whole project is so cool! It really does look like him as well!

There's something so anachronistic about shirtless Goldblum while classical music plays in the background. I love it

I totally get you on the "I would go to jurassic park and if I die I die" front. watching prehistoric planet brought me from being 100% to 200% convinced that I want a pet velociraptor, and if they gut me and have me for breakfast then I hope I don't spoil their digestion

This brings me such joy and I am so glad I am here to witness the greatest offering to the Jeff Goldblum gods

"Rachel's done so many amazing things. How could she possibly top those?" Rachel: Hold my iced coffee... This might be my favorite thing in existence...and I have kids...

Inside you there are two wolves: A magical hobbitcore fairy of the woods vs A lover of sometimes obscure 90s/00s references and vintage memes when they come together at the right time you get ART!

Your sense of humour hits every time. "Pour one out for Toys R Us" made me laugh aggressively

A starched linen petty coat opens up the skirt folds nicely 🍒💕 I really love how you make clothing into artwork. Awesomeness 😀

Rachel is like all the fun and quirky parts of me became a fully fledged person, and I absolutely love that your content speaks to my nerdish soul.

Rachel was so preoccupied with whether or not she *could* make a Goldblum circle skirt, she didn't stop to think if she *should*.

I would absolutely love to see a Haunted Jurassic Park spin-off, where the ghosts of people who died in the park just alternate between geeking out over the place they get to haunt and argue about who had the most badass Dino death.

I just found this video, but I had to tell you how exponentially happy this makes me. I, too, love Jeff Goldblum and this skirt reminds me of the 80s does 50s fashion era. I know Jerassic Park was 90s, but Jeff transcended both decades so well, it's a great mash up pulled together beautifully by that one man. So cute, and a bit naughty. Haha!

Girl, I love everything you do. Honestly you could narrate your house plants or just react to your favorite TikToks we would all still enjoy it.

The most entertaining videos are when you are doing a project purely because you WANT to and for no one else. The joy I see in you making it inspires me to continue doing silly projects, too!!

“Character themed outfits are my favorite thing” SAME I always think of that “every time you get dressed remember that could be your ghost outfit” and try to be the best ghost character I can be

It looks just like him. If you go to Universal Studios, should wear it with a white blouse, suspenders and an explorer’s hat. Love it.

Please, somebody tell Mr.Goldblum about this stunning skirt!! He's GOT to see this! What a gorgeous tribute to a gorgeous man!

The only bad thing about watching Rachel Maksy videos is the sudden brazen confidence and interest in doing a complex DIY project, knowing it will be horrible. Never fails.

I cannot explain the joy this brought me. Thank you!

"Silly" Girl - I've been following for years! You NEVER cease to amaze me. I love watching your videos and creativity. I admit this is one video I didn't ask for... BUT I'm so happy it exists. Super entertaining. 10/10

Not so much 'Nature finds a way", more 'Rachel finds a way'!! :D The portrait was brilliant!!!! Totally love it!!! :D

This was GREAT! The shot of Frodo resting his head on the Goldblum picture made my heart explode. Also, maybe a petticoat or two would help make the art more visible?

Those meanies who are criticizing you for sharing your whole human self and sharing a bit about how you run your channel, they can eat sticks! I'm happy to hear whatever you want to share, and those folks have no idea how hard it is to create and share content with others.

I LOVE THIS! Who WOULDN'T want a circle skirt with Jeff Goldblum on it?!

Rachel, I need you to know that THIS was the video that made me finally unpack all of my sewing supplies from boxes after my cross-country move a few months ago. It turned out so fun!! The reveal literally made me laugh out loud it made me so happy XD

Friday, Saturday, doesn’t matter to me. Rachel videos make my whole day!

This is probably one of my favorite projects you've ever done. Thank you for bringing that skirt into the world.

This entire vid and concept and all the things is pure gold.

20 minutes of serotonin. I always get excited when RU-vid tells me a new Rachel video has come out. Certainly did not disappoint lol

Clicked for the memery on clothing, stayed for the very palpable joy Rachel experienced while making this. We love to see creators love what they're making!~

This whole video is both a mood and a treasure! Thank you for this joy!💚

OMG you nailed it! Maybe a petticoat or crinoline underneath will help to give Jeff some volume (and keep the pleather off your legs for Florida time)

When you said “dinosaur footprints “ I think we collectively sucked in our breath!!! Love ❤️ the whole video! Your painting…chef’s 😘 This was NOT dumb! Stunningly beautiful outfit. Keep doing you 🔥🔥🔥
