Vergura favors simplicity and a neutral palette. Revisiting iconic architecture and grandiose scenes with a "less is more" approach, she distills the essence of ornamentation and passersby in silhouette.

The artist is influenced by her great-grandmother's 1920s fashion illustrations and draws regularly on such imagery in sketches and when planning her figures. She also pulls inspiration from city dwellers in her home of Chicago and elsewhere, as well as her family's ancestral home of Italy. Vergura intimately captures the nostalgia of a single moment, along with each space's tremendous history.
