Jorjett Strumme started her career as a costume designer and fashion consultant 30 years ago when she left her home in Oregon and moved to Los Angeles.
Jorjett’s initial move to L.A. was to work on Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign. After the election, Jorjett moved to Washington D.C. and worked on the Reagan Inaugural Gala. Deciding not to stay in Washington D.C., she moved back to Los Angeles to pursue her dreams in Hollywood.
Jorjett's career in Hollywood includes working with Oscar winning costume designer, Helen Rose; Emmy winning movie and television costume designer, Nolan Miller; and work with such notable actresses as Elizabeth Taylor, Barbara Stanwyck, Lana Turner, Bette Davis, Ginger Rogers, and Ann Miller. Jorjett assisted Nolan Miller on work for the hit T.V. shows: DYNASTY, HOTEL, LOVE BOAT, and 15 films. She also served as Mr. Miller's in-house model. For ten years, she worked with Elizabeth Taylor as her Personal Assistant, photographic stylist and wardrobe coordinator. Jorjett designed her own line of sleepwear, loungewear and caftans and was a featured designer in the book, CALIFORNIA DESIGN. Several of her loungewear designs were featured in ads for ELIZABETH TAYLOR'S PASSION perfume bath products. In 1992 and 1993, Jorjett was a Contributing Editor for HARPER'S BAZAAR MAGAZINE.
After over 20 years in Los Angeles, Jorjett returned to Seaside, Oregon where she has lived for the past 10 years. In September 2009, Jorjett was inducted into the Seaside High School Hall of Fame for both her student and career accomplishments.
Jorjett continues to design clothing, masks and wearable art pieces. Jorjett was the featured artist at Yummy wine bar & bistro, beginning October 6, 2011 through January 4, 2012, with a sold out show.
