You did a fantastic job on this. She looks a little like Cheryl Ladd.
I hope she liked the photos. What was your light source? |

Greetings from the Critique Club!
Technical:This is a great capture. Maybe a little bit of tweeking with metering mode might have helped avoiding the "burning" of details on clothes. I like it personally, but I dont think it might be of everyones taste.
Aesthetic:Great! Takes me to past. B/W is ideal choice and the sharp focus on eyes is just right. The "average housewife friend" of yours should not be feeling average anymore...she looks stunning.
Challenge:Offcourse, anything would fit into theme for this challenge :)
Conclusion:Definately a great capture. Maybe a little bit of postprocessing might have improved the overall composition. I think this challenge had many great photos and this one suffered from "relative" syndrome. I'd have given is 7 had I voted for this challenge.
I'm by no means expert in area of photography. My comments are purely based on my limited understanding of technology and art behind digital photography. Apart from doing detailed evaluation of your submission, my intent is to learn different styles of photography by critically evaluating selective submissions. If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via email or PM.
Wish you a great day!

Beautiful image. Second one in this challenge that reminds me of a 40's pin-up girl. I love it. Tonal range is spot on. Model is beautiful and pleasing to look at. Her gaze pulls the viewer into the shot. 10 from me. |

Great composition. Such a beautiful model, but somehow my eyes can't escape hers. They make such a strong focal point that you can't help but be drawn in. I love it! |

The exposure levels need balancing - the garments are too blown out. The soft focus is nice and works well her. As for the composition - might have been better if she were more angled than horizontal. |

The hair is wonderfully lit and it is this that sets the whole thing off. Great soft focus in the rest of the shot, but eyes still sharp. I like the facial expression as well. |

I like the soft look of the face with the great detail on the hair. The clothing is a bit clown out - but maybe you didn't have control over that due to it's color...7 |

Slightly overdone with the soft focus in my opinion, but still a great portrait with really good B&W contrast and a nice angle and composition. |
