1. Bianca

Bianca soared right to the top of the pack this week! Her pose is so exhilarating and almost superhero-esque. I also love how her tattoos look in this shot. Her chiseled bone structure is gorgeous in profile, and the power and determination in her eyes is spectacular. The only problem is the styling; she had one of the worst dresses and it appears ill-fitting. Just slap some sportswear on her instead and you have an athletic ad campaign ready to go! Bianca blew me away this week!

2. Olivia

Olivia has my favorite fashion shot of the week. She was given some of the best styling and she worked it excellently. Her body looks amazing in that dress and I love how elegant and flow-y her body language is. Her face is stunning and her dreamy expression is great as well, but I wish she had given more of a hint of a smile. Besides that nitpick Olivia did an amazing job yet again!

3. Simone

Simone’s pose is killer and she made it look so easy and effortless! Her legs are to die for, and I love the airiness and relaxed nature of her arm position. She lost me slightly with her face though. She didn’t lose her beauty, but the expression is cheesy and a little overdone. It’s still a fantastic shot of Simone overall!

4. Chloe

Chloe’s picture is on the cusp of being great and there are certain aspects of it that I love. It’s neat how she’s almost floating through the air, and her pointed feet and the daintiness of her visible hand are both fantastic. However, this would be stronger if she had been looking back over her shoulder; she lost her neck by tilting her head down like that (she sort of lost an arm too), and her smile is somewhat tentative. The positives outweigh the negatives for me though.

5. Talulah-Eve

I actually think this might be Talulah-Eve’s best photo to date. She looks a little short and her arms are bit too muscular (though she couldn’t do much about that), but her pose is so free and full of life. She found the light well, and other than a bit of tension around her mouth her face is beautiful and her emotion is genuine. Based solely on this shot Talulah-Eve could’ve stayed, but I agreed wholeheartedly with her elimination since she was probably the weakest overall model remaining and also seemed unable/unwilling to grow and improve.

6. Alannah

This is miles better than my bottom 2, but I’m left underwhelmed by Alannah’s photo. Despite being one of the tallest girls left she just looks somewhat short, mostly due to her arms appearing way longer than her legs. She has a nice smile, but she directed her eye line much too high which gives her face a sort of manic quality that doesn’t work. It’s not one of Alannah’s best.

7. Jennifer

I love the length of Jennifer’s limbs in this shot, but that’s about all I can praise. Having both of her arms thrust forward makes the whole pose very clumsy, and she needed to position one to point behind her. There’s so much fear and discomfort in her eyes, and that grimacing mouth is unfortunate. I’m glad Jennifer survived the bottom 3, but she needed to step it up big time.

8. Tallulah

This is one sloppy photo. It seems like Tallulah was caught coming down from the peak of her bounce, and she wasn’t aware of her body, the dress, or her face. She completely lost her neck and her face is slack and lacks the proper energy required for this brief. Tallulah was losing ground fast at this point.
