JUDGING
Liya: Hello lovely ladies! This week you worked again with the Lemlem line, but on a deeper level because you modeled the collections of the previous winners, or in one pair's case, my own. What you didn't know during the challenge is that each pair was actually working against each other, and the better model of each pair will get the ads as well as be called in the top half. Each of us wanted something different out of you, so let's take a look, starting with Sasha's group!
AgynessRunway: You did a pretty good job on the runway, you got the look Sasha was going for down, but your walk could've used a bit more liveliness.
Photo: Your film was just okay for the most part, but this photo caught my eye. You are the shortest girl here, but I would never know from this photo, you elongated yourself amazingly and those legs go on for days. The expression is also very strong and captivating. I do wish you had some neck though, you literally have no neck here. Also, I feel like this could fit the theme a tiny bit better, it's almost like you combined Sasha's and Joan's lines. Overall great photo though.
EgleRunway: Your walk was pretty good. Not much else to say, nothing really stood out about it.
Photo: This is a very interesting photo. I can't really think of much else to describe it. You have a unique pose with lots of angles and your expression is pretty strong, though you look a little crosseyed. Also, I wish I could see more of the outfit.
DariaRunway: This is thoroughly mediocre. You look pretty, though a bit aged and unhappy, there's just nothing really interesting about this photo.
Photo: This, on the other hand, is phenomenal. Absolute perfection, nothing else to say really.
AnneRunway: With a little retouching, I could see this appearing in an editorial or ad campaign. You look beautiful and those eyes are so piercing. Great job.
Photo: Where'd those piercing eyes go? Your expression is so blank, which is disappointing after seeing such a strong expression in your backstage shot. You do look gorgeous though, your skin looks great and you are selling the lipstick and eyeshadow, I just wish there was some life to this.
BiancaRunway: Fabulous! You really channeled Gisele on that runway and made her proud.
Photo: Going through your film, I was very disappointed and frustrated. You had stunning shot after stunning shot, but I think you confused Gisele's and Caroline's lines because you were only selling accessories to me, this is the only photo where the outfit was visible. It's a stunning photo, but you need to remember the product you are selling.
CandiceRunway: You looked great on the runway and did a good job, though Bianca stood out more.
Photo: You only had about 3 usable photos in your film, partially because you ran into the same problem as Bianca of modeling Caroline's line, and partially because you posed with a cigarette in some of your photos, which can work for editorials but never an ad. This is a pretty good photo, your face is simply enchanting and you nailed the glamorous aspect, though I wish I saw more of the dress and less of the perfume.
KarlieRunway: *claps* Bravo! You gave exactly what Fatima was looking for.
Photo: This is a good photo, though it doesn't have the same wow factor as your runway. You do look very regal and luxurious like Fatima wanted, there could just be a little more spark and you also look a little short which is weird considering you are the tallest girl here.
DioniRunway: Well...Karlie absolutely destroyed you on the runway, this is kinda mediocre. Not bad, but not great either.
Photo: Your photo, however, blows Karlie out of the water. If you had positioned your body a little better, perhaps with a slight booty tooch, then this would be absolutely perfect, though as is it is pretty darn close. Fantastic job!
GertrudRunway: If you put a little more life in this then it would be amazing, though it's still pretty good as is. You do sell the bag quite well.
Photo: This shot is so effortlessly beautiful. You're not doing much, but you didn't really need to. You are selling those sunglasses really well and you look beautiful. Great job.
CarolaRunway: You do nerdy chic quite well, I want those glasses and that bag. I would've liked a little more strut perhaps, but overall well done.
Photo: This was originally my least favorite shot in your film, but after going back through your film I fell in love with it. You have a gorgeous profile; your jawline, cheekbones, and lips look great. Your skin also looks absolutely flawless, and your neck extension really helps to sell the jewelry. I also love the sensuality and slight racial ambiguity to this. Amazing job.
NadineRunway: You looked a little scraggly on the runway, not gonna lie, almost like you had been crying. Otherwise you had a nice strut though.
Photo: Your film was a bit too edgy and dark, but this shot still works. Your body looks beyond amazing, you look so long and lean and toned. I also like the overall sensuality and you do sell the lingerie quite well. You actually could've upped the sexuality a little bit, but overall great job.
FabianaRunway: A little more life in the face and a little more umph in the strut would've brought this to the next level, but it's still pretty good as is.
Photo: Where is that other arm? That's the major flaw holding this photo back, otherwise it's really good. Your body looks great and I like the pose other than the missing arm, and your face looks beautiful. More sensuality would have also been nice though.
SuiRunway: I had high expectations since you had one of the best walks in casting, but I'm not blown away by this. You could've used more edge and power. It's not bad though.
Photo: The expression and pose are so Joan, you almost even look like her, though the styling could be a bit more chic. Anyway, you do a great job, the post is quirky yet strong and the face is very powerful.
AshleyRunway: You look a little bored, had there been more life in your face and power in the walk then this would be perfect, though it's still pretty good.
Photo: You had a pretty good film, but I feel like you didn't really hit the nail on the head until you got to this shot. I like the pose, it's angular and quirky but strong, very Joan-ish. There is also a nice edge to the face that is reminiscent of Joan. Some neck would be nice, and a little more power in the expression, but overall good job.
MelodieRunway I feel like you held back a little bit. A slightly bigger smile and a little more energy to the walk would have been perfect, though this is still really good.
Photo (center): I absolutely adore your smile, it is so warm, friendly, and approachable. You look so approachable, and it just lights up the room. Your skin also looks amazing. I only have two problems with this shot: one, that your eyes are slightly uneven; and two, what are you selling me?! You are not selling an outfit here, I just see a smiley girl.
AnaisRunway: Fantastic! You were very playful and commercial without going over the top, great job.
Photo: You and Melodie are just inseparable, aren't you? Anyway, this is fantastic. You show just the right amount of commercial appeal, you look beautiful, and you are actually selling the outfit. Great job!
