One day a part of you that you never knew existed before, may reach out to touch you... I think this photo has some extreme artistic value: coming to peace with a part of you that you had abandoned, or embracing a part of you who you were not aware of before hand. It's all about embracing and being comfortable with yourself. My long wavy hair brings a fashion element to this photo as well as my soft gown.

Amanda: I really, really like this as a standalone photo. The idea is excellently done and somewhat creepy, and the black and white effect of the reflection is incredible - and very artistic. The art value in the photo is very high, but the fashion value is not - you're not taking the fashion and turning it into art, you're just being artistic with photography. There's a separation between those two worlds, as little as it may be. I love the look in your eyes and your hair is great, and although it's a plain studio shot with a mirror... I really like it. It's just not as strongly "fashion as art" as it could be, and that's your biggest downfall. Is it enough to eliminate you? I don't believe so.

Hayley: An interesting idea for the photo. I don't know how strongly this fits the theme, but you look good in it and like Amanda said, I really like this as a standalone photo. I also like that your reflection is in black and white. I just wish that this photo had a bigger overall impact given what the theme is this week.

Natalie: Again, I agree with Amanda. This is an amazing photograph, and it's very artistic; however, the fashion isn't as artsy. I love the story here, and that definitely helps. Overall, I see where you were going with this, but I think the execution just fell short. Still a good job though.

Adele: Agreed with the girls. I also wish the photo would give more impact than this. But you look very beautiful this week. I love the look but in term of overall execution, it wasn't exciting enough for me
