Carbon Costume

Jenny is a character from the classic 1994 film Forrest Gump, and is played by Robin Wright. In this film, Jenny is the love interest of Forrest and we get to see her at many different stages throughout her life, starting at childhood when she first met him. Her costumes change along with her, and how she wants to show her personality at different stages.

In the phase covered here, these costumes are often called her “hippie” outfits. To dress like Jenny in this era, wear a fur lined faux suede coat. Another way is you could go all out with a white frock maxi dress and layer a long fringe brown vest over it and a brown wide belt at the waist. Add some buttons to one side of the vest and you have the perfect Jenny outfit for every day life or as a costume, maybe even with your significant other as Forrest Gump.

In the 1994 film Forrest Gump, the titular Forrest Gump embarks on a lengthy run across America with his trusty Nikes. This guide is for when his iconic running look featured in one of the most memorable scenes of American cinema.
