PiscesI feel like this photo shows both the positive and negative sides of Pisces. I think it's very imaginative due to the pose. The look in the eyes give me a sense of intrigue. Also, you could argue it's artistic as well because the gaze is very seductive in a way along with the beautiful dress and shoes. Which I believe, could also be quite deceptive. To me this picture could be like "Hey I'm here to comfort you and listen to your many problems because they interest me. Or am I? " I dunno I just get this really deceiving feel. The fact that the picture can be interpreted in many ways also makes it artistic which all tie in to what Pisces stands for.

Adele: So for Pisces, you were supposed to be imaginative, compassionate and also deceptive/too vague. You look great but my problem is I don't really convinced with the emotion that you try to portray here. I think your hand gesture could be more graceful, and soften up your body language a little bit. It would be more better. But your styling here is great.

Natalie: Hmm. I voted to save you last week, and now I am not so sure about that decision. While your eyes look better, I fail to see much of a connection to the theme here. Sorry! Also, just as a shot in general, it really doesn't hold my interest.

Amanda: Modelesquity? High. Styling? Great. Pose? Wonderful. Relation to the theme? Absolutely none. Let's go over what Adele posted in the shoot description, along with Amanda's elaborations on each point: IntuitiveYou clearly seem to be thinking about something here, so this definitely is present in some form.PsychicThis one is hard to pull off. Unless you're Gemma Arterton.Most spiritualI don't see any sort of "spirit" here. Again, hard to pull off, but YOU HAVE NO SETTING, so...Sympathetic, Empathetic, CompassionateYou look extremely apathetic here. I don't see this in the slightest, and that's a pretty major problem.Positive energyAnother problem. You have NO energy. You're this lifeless statue lost in thinking...Right. ImaginativeThis is my biggest problem. When I think "imaginative," I think something artistic, something memorable, something flamboyant, something portruding the cliches of the current, something that goes above and beyond the norm. Again, I must take note that you lack a setting and that's a pretty catastrophic problem for this.I think I've made my point. The relation to the theme is extremely weak to the point that ANY redeeming qualities of this photo go up in smoke. The styling may be great, but it doesn't do justice to you or the theme. You look like a model, but the lack of a setting takes away what the modeling could be. I'm sorry, Emilia, but based on this, I don't regret wanting to keep Penelope, and it looks like you may be sleeping with the fishes this round :/

Hayley: Ok Emilia, you've struck me as a seemingly nice person, so I don't want to rub salt in the wounds and talk about whether or not the decision that kept you here was right or wrong. You had enough support from a couple of the judges and a higher average callout that kept you in. I'd rather talk about this round. The only part of your description that clicks for me is the look of intrigue in your face. Like Amanda, if you were going to bring up the Imaginative aspect of the sign, I would have preferred something more than just a studio shot. I would have liked to have seen a more artistic vision represented in the photo. The color of your dress and the fact that it's a bit reminiscent of waves probably helps you this round since it does reference your sign.
