Greetings from the critique club.
I see you've asked for a critique, but I note in your response to critiques during the challenge, you've marked only those that said they liked it, with no critical comments, as helpful. So I am guessing you don't really want a critique. It would be a good idea if you want to improve, to treat critiques as the valuable feedback they are.
Aesthetics. The tones are interesting here, but it's not enough to carry the package. The crop is unbalanced, and the photo is quite unlike what I would expect to see advertising or displaying fashion. Sure the clothes look fashionable, but they are not presented in such a way that I would say, "wow, that looks like a really nice..."
I'm not even sure whether there are two sets of clothes being shown here or one. I can't really tell if the left side of the photo is a second person or set of clothes. Kind of looks like it, but I honestly can't tell for sure.
Technical: Focus looks good; tones are interesting; composition and setup/subject are off, IMHO.
Keep on shooting, and remember, you learn from critical comments, not from the atta-boys. Yes, they can be motivating, but you are already motivated, or you wouldn't be here! |

| I'm missing something here. I just don't see this as a fashion shot or something that would grace the pages of GQ. |

| Intriguing crop, but perhaps a bit too subdued to highlight the "fashion". |

| The main detractors for me on this photo are the washed out color and the extremely awkward crop. |
