In the same interview with Starlog magazine, Henson said that Connelly "was right at that moment between child and woman. During filming, she was 14-and-a-half, and some of the time when you talked to her, she was like a child, and at other times, she was very much like a young woman." This made Connelly ideal for the part, as according to Henson "We basically wanted to make Labyrinth about the growing-up process of maturity, working with the idea of a young girl right at that point between girl and woman, shedding her childhood thoughts for adult thoughts."Step 4: The Makeup Jareth's ethereal makeup is essential to complete the look.

An interesting thing I noticed is that on the far sides, additional stripes are added at the very bottom, about 3″ at most, and tapering down. At first I saw it only on the right side, but upon closer looking for quire a while, I was able to make out the extension on the other side. I speculate that the reason for this is that the fabric, which was used lengthwise around the gown instead of in panels, wasn’t wide enough to go from the waist, over the panniers, and to the floor, or wherever they decided to hem it (could have been ankle length, I don’t know since I don’t know Jennifer Connolly’s height). Had those sides been left shorter, it would have been noticed, and shortening the entire gown 3″ would have been noticed. The extensions are sewn on with zigzag stitching. In photo 4, you can see a darker line from the right side that angles down. This is one of the extensions. In my first video, at 44 seconds in, I point it our clearer, and for the one on the right, it’s at 2:19 on my second video.

David Bowie was 5’10, so I’d guess she was 5’5 perhaps from your photos, maybe a little less. Actresses are usually tiny.

I’d say the same about this gown. I’m sure you all remember that Jareth used his magic crystals to do a lot of his bidding. It would seem very appropriate that Sarah’s dress have crystal beadwork in her gown. Look at this bodice and the draped, off-the-shoulder crystal beadwork. This defines modern Labyrinth-esque glamour. Craft, Dan (12 July 1986). "Trapped in an endless maze of special effects". The Pantagraph. Bloomington, Illinois. pp.4, 19.

Connelly's role as Sarah brought her international fame [167] and made her a teen icon.

[158] [170] In 1997, Connelly said, "I still get recognized for Labyrinth by little girls in the weirdest places. I can't believe they still recognize me from that movie. It's on TV all the time and I guess I pretty much look the same." [171] In 2008, Connelly said she found it amusing that many people continued to recognise her as Sarah two decades after she worked on the film. [172]Trainer, Adam (October 2003).
