Jackie is an experienced seamstress who started sewing when she was only 14. She, like many women, had the challenge of buying off the rack apparel that fit her frame well. Out of necessity, she learned to alter clothing and soon realized that she could make pieces that were more to her liking and better flattered her body.
Throughout the years, people commented on her designs and requested custom pieces. Jackie has spent many years honing her craft and in 2007, she and her partner, Rebecca MacMillan launched their line, R.J. Luna. The initial offering included a single versatile silhouette that flatters all women, the Cecielia. Originally, the concept was creating beautiful sleepwear and by popular demand, quickly progressed into day/evening, as well. Jackie describes her design aesthetic as "casual elegance".
Since the inception of R.J. Luna, Jackie has expanded her repertoire to include numerous silhouettes. Her focus is on creating looks that flatter all body types.
Jackie and R.J. Luna are committed to offering designs that are one of a kind, hand sewn originals in a couture style. Each piece is meticulously created by one of the "house" seamstresses and proudly made in the USA.
