                    Challenge #1: Compliments & Complements
                    Designers, for this first challenge we want to get to know you all
                    better. Design a look where your model is doing one of your favorite activities,
                    and to add an extra challenge, you're going to be dressing her up in a duotone
                    look. Your two colors must be complementary. Complementary colors are across
                    from one another on the color wheel and really make one another pop when
                    side by side. You may choose to go off the traditional color wheel or the RGB
                    wheel
                    . You must use color though, you can not use black and white. And word
                    to the wise? If you see other designers using a color scheme, pick a different
                    one. The judges will not be happy people if there are thirteen purple and yellow
                    looks submitted. Make your looks stand out!
                    Due Date: Jan 19th

                    Comments:
                    This is an a great first entry! I hate purple and gold since they were my high school
                    colors, but this was good enough to overcome those sensations haha. I think there is a good
                    balance between the colors, not too much yellow or purple, and I think good shades were chosen.
                    Love how clearly the art and painting comes across, and getting to know more about Dame. The
                    description was also a good one. Just solid all around start! Only concern is there is a lot going on.
                    It works here, but doesn't always work and is just something to keep an eye on.

                    Ananemain — Cressida 66.25%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:5 • Description:6.5
                    Comments:
                    I don't love the filter that is making everything a little dark, and I don't think it really
                    fits with the vibe Ananemain was describing aiming for in the description? But this is good. I
                    wanted more detail in the description. Why festive, there are tons of other color schemes, it
                    would just be nice to hear why this one. That said it was nice to get to know more about them,
                    and I like the fact it is a festive color scheme and thus has a Christmas vibe, but the look isn't
                    over the top Christmas or anything. Love the book item. I'm not sure it reads as idyllic hillside,
                    almost looks more like a photo studio backdrop. Which isn't a bad thing! Just don't see what
                    was described.

                    Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 63.75%
                    Style:7 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:6 • Description:5
                    Comments:
                    This is a very simple look, but it's cute! I appreciate the color scheme and how well
                    it compliments Kimber, but also appreciate how items were used (like the watercolor in the air)
                    but I would have changed some of them. The jeans are a great color - love the jeans and skirt
                    combo, takes me back - but I think things would have looked a little neater and more polished if
                    they had been skinny jeans. Leggings or something that still read as jeans/that vibe but would be
                    less bulky. Also feel like there would have to be a better jacket option? The background is also so
                    lifeless compared to the rest of the look, and I think something lively should have been chosen. I
                    need more why from the description.

                    Kr-E — Priya 65%
                    Style:7 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:6.5 • Description:5
                    Comments:
                    This is a beautiful color scheme for Priya, and I would love to know if that was why the
                    scheme was chosen, or if it was chosen out of some interest in the color scheme independently.
                    Regardless, this is a good look. Maybe leans a little bit too much on items that were designed to
                    go together? But I'm not mad at it. Description was decent, I like the formatting. Would have liked
                    a little bit more personal details? And I also hope that Priya isn't dressed in something Asian or
                    Indian for every single entry. It feels a little more caricature esque, would like it to feel more real.

                    actualdeerooze — Zanna 93.75%
                    Style:8.5 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:9
                    Comments:
                    I am BLOWN away by the creativity of this entry. Two entries is a risky move, double
                    the chances for something to go wrong or be scored poorly, BUT this paid off. V-tubing is one of
                    those things that I've never fully understood, but it is interesting and this has helped me see it in
                    a different view. Looooove that Zanna and her avatar have some of the same accessories. What's
                    more, the few details like extra lashes on the avatar might have been too much normally, it works
                    here, especially since they aren't on the "real" side. I'm not sure either back view added anything?
                    But this has set the bar very high for other challenges.

                    Picaru — Pearl 86.25%
                    Style:8 • Motif:9 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    A very cute color scheme for Pearl. Maybe a little too cute? But there's nothing bad
                    about being cute. Very demure, very mindful. ;D But reading the description? I'm much more on
                    board with it. I like that Picaru shared about themselves and explained why the chose the colors
                    they did. I looooove the little mouse vibes from the bow. This is just beautiful and well composed,
                    every layer is complete and connected. There are a couple details that are rendered just a little to
                    crisply compared to some of the other soft details? Like the front coffee table with tea pot keeps
                    drawing my eye cause it is just a little crisper. Not a bad thing, but it is something to consider.

                    wishflower — Maeve 75%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:7
                    Comments:
                    If there is one thing everyone will learn about me by the end of this cycle, it is that
                    I HATE filters that make it harder to see looks. ESPECIALLY when this one is all about color, and
                    the description says they were opting for a "fresh, bright, and tangy style" but then it is dark and we
                    lose all that great color! I love choosing chartreuse and magenta, but I want to see them embraced.
                    Don't hide or dim them to make them more palatable. The K-Pop influence is fun, like learning this
                    side of wish, and I think these colors are very flattering for Maeve. Also need some more description
                    on the background and things like that.

                    Crimson-Miz13 — Lourdes 42.5%

                    Comments:
                    My next announcement advising things is gonna be about description, because
                    this is just...terrible. There is nothing there. I'm sure Crimson can improve, but at this point...yikes.
                    Anyway..this is fine? Too many shadow and make up additions that I'm not sure were needed. A
                    few too many shades of amber, kind of makes it hard to tell which is which/what goal/etc. Having
                    such a lack luster description only ads to it. I also think things blend into the background too much
                    with the same dark violet on the look as the background. Like it's fine. But it just..makes me shrug.

                    supersunshine506 — Marina 75%
                    Style:7 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:8 • Description:7.5
                    Comments:
                    The eyes were changed to a different color, and this loses points as a result. Ok,
                    the general aesthetic of this look perfectly screams hula hoop. I love it. However, the description
                    almost went a touch over board with things? But not in a..idk how to explain this. I saw the vision
                    more just looking at the look, when the description talked about things like the hoop Marina has in
                    hand, it started to lose me. It just isn't visible enough. I also think the look could use more orange,
                    it is very blue at present. But this is a beautiful look! I think there is potential.

                    lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 50%
                    Style:4 • Motif:5.5 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:3
                    Comments:
                    I don't love the bang mod, I'm not sure it requires docking points but there will be a
                    warning against using such a mod in the future. I think this is cute and has a good balance to the
                    colors, and as cute as the cat is it kind of eats up a lot of space. I like the details that are in the
                    description, but we need more. Over all I like it? But it would be nice if it was a little clearer to see
                    all the details in the actual outfit. Also would be nice to see more description. Idk. The more I look
                    at it, the more I am bothered by the bangs.

                    torimani — Harper 42.5%
                    Style:4 • Motif:5 • Creativity:6 • Description:2
                    Comments:
                    There is....way too much changed here. I'll take some responsibility for the lips, but
                    only because the features list just said Golden Lips. I've edited it now to specify the base look, not
                    any of the extra options. Whatever. Also way too many hair edits, especially hideous to see from the
                    back view. Really hard to judge the motif because there isn't much to guide on what it is. What the
                    goal was. I'm really gonna have to give advice on descriptions. Why these colors? Why all the edits?
                    There are just a whole lot of things that need improving.

                    Eziara — Imani 70%
                    Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:5
                    Comments:
                    I loooove this color scheme on Imani! Idk why Ez keeps calling her Irina though. It is
                    Imani everywhere. Like does it really matter? Probably not. But it isn't great haha. THAT BEING SAID,
                    Imani looks great. This color scheme really suits her. I even kind of like the super heavy blush, which
                    is not something I usually do. Really love the background used. This is a good example of a good and
                    pretty filter that adds to the look and doesn't distract. I want to know how this connects to Eziara.

                    NaturallyPragmaticChimera — Arden 71.25%
                    Style:8 • Motif:9 • Creativity:5 • Description:6.5
                    Comments:
                    This will not be an opinion well received by NPC, but I don't get any mint in this look.
                    Like at all. There is some great pale blue? Maybe it is named as a minty blue, but there is no green
                    like there should be. Especially with the mint chosen when declaring the color scheme? It just isn't
                    there. The raspberry is a great choice for Arden, and she looks great though. I would have enjoyed
                    some more of why this inspiration and theme connects to NPC and their interests. The dress blends
                    in a little bit with the background circle, but that's okay. I really like this look. Just falls short on some
                    challenge elements.

**•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*Challenge #1: Compliments & Complements **•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*
Designers, for this first challenge we want to get to know you all
better. Design a look where your model is doing one of your favorite activities,
and to add an extra challenge, you're going to be dressing her up in a duotone
look. Your two colors must be complementary. Complementary colors are across
from one another on the color wheel and really make one another pop when
side by side. You may choose to go off the traditional color wheel or the RGB
wheel. You must use color though, you can not use black and white. And word
to the wise? If you see other designers using a color scheme, pick a different
one. The judges will not be happy people if there are thirteen purple and yellow
looks submitted. Make your looks stand out!


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 75%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:7
Comments: I think Naomi looks cute in yellow, and I love the Ghastly purple shade Dame picked. It feels fitting and it's not as boring as just regular warm-toned purple.
Their vision for a cute art-themed avatar is great, and I can see a lot of potential in their outfit.
Personally, I am not too fond of the addition of art cases and the paintbrush belt, I think they kind of mess with the colour scheme, but I also understand that Gaia is severely lacking in certain items in specific colours.
I also think that the mesh top was a great idea, as it kept the outfit well-balanced. Dame's description is also amazing, so that's a plus!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Ananemain — Cressida 65%
Style:6 • Motif:7 • Creativity:7 • Description:6
Comments: Cressida rocks in green and red, that colour scheme looks perfect on her! I do wish we had a little peek at how her outfit looks under the book.
I like the ethereal reader idea, though I feel like it could've been pulled off better, perhaps going even harder in the fantasy directory?
Also, I think the background doesn't match the model the best, at least the foreground with the pink flowers and the filter is messing up the whole vibe.
The description also feels a bit lacking, but I understand the stylist was struggling with some irl stuff and needed an extension.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 57.5%
Style:6 • Motif:6 • Creativity:5 • Description:6
Comments: Red and teal is a great match for Kimber, I think teal looks amazingly on her. However, I do think that the outfit is... quite boring and unmatched?
I understand what Sleepy was going for, but I feel like it could've been improved (maybe a different top or pants?). And the artist theme was already executed better by Dame, so that puts this entry at a disadvantage.
The background was rather unneeded (also not vibrant enough!) and the easel doesn't fit much. I wish Sleepy leaned more into red and teal!
Their description could use a bit of work, I think it lacks more information on why they chose what. But they did mention being a bit rusty, so I am hoping their future entries will get better!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Kr-E — Priya 73.5%
Style:8 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:6.5
Comments: Wow, Priya is rocking the goshiki scheme! She looks just adorable like that. I love how she looks like she's having lots of fun at a festival.
I do wish that Kr-E didn't rely too much on established Gaia colour schemes or at least put a bit more of a personal twist to their outfit.
Honestly, my biggest gripe is that I feel like the description is slightly lacking. There's not enough information about what inspired the designer and why specifically they chose this theme.
(The fact this is another Asian-themed outfit for Priya is slightly worrying, but I mean, that's just the first entry, so I will give it a pass for now.)

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ actualdeerooze — Zanna 95%
Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:9
Comments: Oh, wow, that's a beautiful entry and it is surprisingly creative. I love the idea of using two different avatars as a way of depicting the same model.
I do hope in the future we won't get too many double avatar entries because I think the judging will get way too hard this way.
actualdeerooze's usage of the Goshiki scheme is better than Kr-E's, as they didn't rely on it as much in the "normal" Zanna version.
I love that both Zannas share certain accessories, while other things parallel between the two avatars.
The description is also oozing with love for vtuber content and community. It's easily noticeable they know what they're talking about!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Picaru — Pearl 87.5%
Style:8 • Motif:9 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: Peachy pink and minty green is one of my favourite colour schemes, and I adore cute lolita fashion, so I might be a bit biased, but I think this is such an adorably perfect outfit.
I loooove all the little details, flowers, and bows. My only gripe would be that some background elements feel a bit too intensely coloured. Perhaps a pastel filter would fix that issue?
I like that Picaru clearly describes their adventure while trying to dress up Pearl, their reasoning and personal feelings.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ wishflower — Maeve 72.5%
Style:6 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
Comments: I really like the bright outfit and you can clearly see the K-Pop inspiration.
But I don't like how I can barely see the outfit, why use the dark filter? She's not wearing any dark and moody outfits, she's clearly meant to be bright and sparkling.
Other than that issue, the colours used by wishflower are great, the highlighter green really makes the outfit stand out from the rest.
The description is great, perhaps just a tad short, but I enjoy seeing the designer's love for something.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Crimson-Miz13 — Lourdes 40%
Style:5 • Motif:4 • Creativity:5 • Description:2
Comments: I think Lourdes looks great and particularly devious in purple and gold, though I don't get the Queen of Hearts vibes from her outfit (except the speech bubble, I guess).
At first, I thought she was meant to be dressed in a more of a Halloween-themed outfit.
I also don't understand certain choices, such as the orange flower petals in the foreground, they're too bright and don't make too much sense to me. The description is barely there, so there's not much to judge here.
That's a quite weak entry, but I can see some potential in Crimson-Miz13's entry, let's hope their next ones will be better!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ supersunshine506 — Marina 70%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:6
Comments: I really like the soft colours and the creative idea, I do think there's not enough orange, perhaps instead of the blue earbuds, supersunshine506 could've used some orange belt or a choker.
Honestly, the hoop is also barely visible, for a while I was convinced the hoop was something I was meant to just imagine in the picture. The description is also very flowery, which makes it slightly hard to read for myself.
I love the part where sunshine gave us a bit more insight into hula hooping as a hobby and the community surrounding it. (Also, supersunshine506 changed the eyes, which is not allowed!)

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 52.5%
Style:5 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:3
Comments: Jolene's looking quite adorable and comfortable in her gamer chair, and I do like the inclusion of the little kitty.
However, I wish lucifer gave us a version without the background and the cat because, for an outfit-based contest, I cannot really see the outfit.
Also, I would love a longer description, I think there's a solid idea here!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Torimani — Harper 42.5%
Style:5 • Motif:5 • Creativity:6 • Description:1
Comments: I do like the colour scheme and the background, I feel like there's a cute idea here.
But the hair edit is messing up the whole vibe. I can barely see Harper from under all these illegal twin tails and side hair.
Also the changed lips... And the description is just... well, there's none?

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Eziara — Imani 75%
Style:8 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:7
Comments: Imani looks great in such vibrant colours and her beachwear. I think she looks so pretty in the Suika colour scheme, her makeup is truly beautiful.
I love how the filter adds little rays of sunshine over her, it makes me feel so warm... I am slightly missing summer now, haha!
I do think the description could be a bit longer, perhaps by adding a bit more of yourself or why you chose specifically volleyball for Imani?
Overall, I think that's a great, solid entry.

✩ NaturallyPragmaticChimera — Arden 77.5%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:7
Comments: Another one of my favourite colour schemes, and Arden is looking gorgeous in her clothes!
I do wish NaturallyPragmaticChimera leaned more into mint colours, there's a bit too much white for me to truly call it a raspberry and mint colour scheme.
Also, based on the colour of the text I assumed it would be much more green-hued than it is right now.
Still, I like the look and the idea, though I would've liked it more if NPC took a bit more of a personal approach and told us more about why were they inspired by the Chinese Lunar New Year.

                    Challenge Title
                    Challenge Description:
                    Designers, for this first challenge we want to get to know you all
                    better. Design a look where your model is doing one of your favorite activities,
                    and to add an extra challenge, you're going to be dressing her up in a duotone
                    look. Your two colors must be complementary. Complementary colors are across
                    from one another on the color wheel and really make one another pop when
                    side by side. You may choose to go off the traditional color wheel or the RGB
                    wheel. You must use color though, you can not use black and white. And word
                    to the wise? If you see other designers using a color scheme, pick a different
                    one. The judges will not be happy people if there are thirteen purple and yellow
                    looks submitted. Make your looks stand out!
                    Due Date: Jan 19th

                    I really like how the colors balance where your eye is drawn to -- the composition comes off as very organic! I like how the description mentions making the look 'less severe'; the whole thing really flows! I'd just love to see a little more filling out the background, but this is a very strong entry!

                    Comments:
                    I felt like this entry would’ve looked better without the filters, but the description and personal stories charmed me! The filters actually grew on me a little bit more after reading the thought process. Seeing this side of entries helps me understand what I may have missed when I was a contestant, so I appreciate this learning opportunity!

                    Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 47.5%
                    Style:5 • Motif:6 • Creativity: 3 • Description:5
                    Comments:
                    I feel like there's things missing; I like the color choices, but there's not enough of them. Also, there's plenty of other entries involving paints/painting scenes, etc., and that's not me saying you shouldn't embrace the artist persona, but find a fun new way to channel that same sentiment! Art is everywhere, so I think with a bit more confidence, this entry could have stood out much more.

                    Comments:
                    I LOOOOVE a narrative description! This one certainly tells a story. I think the Coy color scheme works for this challenge, and this is honestly a 'textbook' example of a great entry imo! I think maybe a little extra detail wouldn't have hurt, but I'm not complaining.

                    Okay, not just ONE, but TWO looks??? I barely have time to eat when I get home from work, but this sort of creative energy right out of the gate is awesome! The description was very detailed as well, and it ticked every box (for me, personally) on the criteria for this challenge! I love this energy; I'm here for it.

                    Comments:
                    Another wonderfully detailed description! I love the fruity and floral colors, and how soft and gentle everything looks! I'm definitely down for afternoon tea if this is where we're having it!

                    Style:8 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    I actually quite like the vignette centering in on the main subject, Maeve. I love these colors quite a lot! And I loved the personal touch about being forced to wear lots of magenta growing up. I'm a karaoke fiend, so I love the addition of the karaoke machine in the bg!

                    The filter washes out the contrast between the colors :c
                    A great description, though!

                    lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 60%
                    Style:8 • Motif:6 • Creativity:6 • Description:4
                    Comments:
                    Description is just a little bit short, but I like the balance of the colors and the mention of Karlach. BG3, babyyyyyyyyyyy~
                    Needs more of the contrasting colors though!

                    torimani — Harper 45%
                    Style:5 • Motif:6 • Creativity:5 • Description:2
                    Comments:
                    Hardly any description, but I love the color balance/contrast between the background and the warmth of her hair.

                    Style:10 • Motif:9 • Creativity:9 • Description:7
                    Comments:
                    I loooooove this entry! The background, the colors, the warmth! Maybe a little heavy on the blush, but I love how the tones from the rest of the look compliment her skin!

                    Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    I love these colors individually, but I think I'm just a little too used to seeing the Winterberry color scheme. I like the use of the background shape cutter, and the mention of the Chinese New Year (plus the extra info about what the colors represent) was really nice!

**•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*Challenge #2: The Higher The Hair... **•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*
Designers, now that you have dipped your toes in the water of
competition, we know you're ready for this challenge. It's a famous one at
Project Catwalk, both feared and eagerly awaited. You have to use the below
wig and build a look around it for your models! This is a challenge to really let
your creativity shine to make your look stand out from the others. We judges
want to be surprised! And to be clear, this wig will replace your model's set
hair for this challenge, but only this challenge. And only the hair is changing.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 75%
Style:8 • Motif:7 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
Comments: I really like the colours Dame used, the pinks, greens and reds look great together.
The filter also helps to keep the soft vibes and a cohesive look. Dame's description is well-written, per usual.
There's really nothing to complain about, it's overall a good, solid entry.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Ananemain — Cressida 85%
Style:9 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:9
Comments: A great improvement over Ananemain's last entry, every part of the outfit and description has been refined!
Cressida's outfit is really pretty, I like how Ananemain made the green bustle match the wig. The flower crown was also a great choice.
The background and foreground are stunning, I especially love the halo-like effect behind Cressida.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 70%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:6
Comments: Another improvement from the last entry! I think Kimber looks beautiful, and the seductive vibes match her well.
The colours are well-balanced, and the outfit is pretty. My biggest complaint would be the description, which still feels quite lacking.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Kr-E — Priya 71.25%
Style:7.5 • Motif:7 • Creativity:7 • Description:7
Comments: I like the idea for the outfit and the little critters, though I am not too fond of the colours. It feels a bit too mismatched for me.
The background also feels a bit darker than other shades of green used on Priya. Maybe some filter would've helped with the colour balance?
The description is nice and I like the inclusion of the inspiration images.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ actualdeerooze — Zanna 85%
Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:9 • Description:7
Comments: Another beautiful entry from deerooze, bravo! I adore how the sun rays shine on the wig, making it a real highlight of the outfit.
Zanna's outfit makes me think of a Greek statue lost deep in the woods and overgrown with plants.
My only real complaint this time would be that the description feels a little too short compared to the last time. I would've liked a bit more information!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Picaru — Pearl 92.5%
Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:10 • Description:9
Comments: A breathtaking, soft outfit. The gown looks amazing on Pearl and all the little accessories and flowers work wonders for her.
The marble statue theme and makeup based on them are gorgeous as well. Honestly, I think this is a great entry and I like it a lot.
The description is also great and very expressive.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ wishflower — Maeve 82.5%
Style:6 • Motif:8 • Creativity:10 • Description:9
Comments: A lovely and unique theme compared to other entries. I love all the historical references and tidbits included by wishflower.
The outfit is solid, I like how the flowers in Maeve's wig match the colour of her shirt.
However, as much as I like the idea, the background is not really working well. Not because it's not matching theme-wise, but because there's just... a lot going on.
There are so many different colours and shades it feels too busy and mismatched.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Crimson-Miz13 — Lourdes 62.5%
Style:6 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:6
Comments: This outfit is actually quite nice, but the filter is really messing it up.
I think it was honestly unneeded, it is way too dark and makes it hard to see the entry. And from what I can see, I think there are too many shades of green going on.
The description has greatly improved since last time, so that's a plus! And I like the inclusion of inspirational images.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ supersunshine506 — Marina 70%
Style:5 • Motif:5 • Creativity:10 • Description:8
Comments: Oh, that's such a unique idea, I love it! Now onto negatives...
What's with the dark filter? I understand she's in the vault, but it makes it really hard to see the entry.
And from what I can see, I think the outfit is slightly boring. Not a big fan of it. Maybe I would like it more if I could see it in whole.
The description is interesting and skillfully written.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 57.5%
Style:3 • Motif:5 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
Comments: lucifer wrote a very fun and interesting description, which is a plus! I like the Dolly Parton inspiration.
Now, onto the outfit... I think nothing in the entry matches the hair, and then the background has a different shade of green to Jolene's teal underwear.
Personally, I think it's quite ugly. : (

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Torimani — Harper 67.5%
Style:7 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:7
Comments: Torimani worked hard on making a description this time, I always love to see when people take criticism to heart.
The outfit is really cute, and I like the water theme. I think that adding coral was a good idea, but I wish there was at least one more coral-coloured piece.
Maybe in Harper's hair?

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Eziara — Imani 87.5%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:10 • Description:9
Comments: Imani looks beautiful, and I adore the colours used for her. She looks breathtaking and ethereal in this outfit.
The only part I don't like that much is the makeup, I feel like the red on the cheeks is not matching the rest of the entry at all.
The description is great, and this time, Eziara didn't mess up Imani's name. :'D

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ NaturallyPragmaticChimera — Arden 90%
Style:9 • Motif:8 • Creativity:10 • Description:9
Comments: Beautiful entry from Chimera! I love the colours used for Arden, it's a refreshing look when you compare it to the others. There's barely any green in it!
I like the inclusion of the choker to add a matching green, though I think one more green item would've made the look even prettier.
The description is well-written, it's a very solid and pretty entry.

                    Comments:
                    This is lovely, I think the white of the dress is a bit too much white,
                    but I do like this. Excellent!! use of filter. Naomi is beautiful and ethereal, I like the idea of
                    this. The white is just what kills me.

                    Ananemain — Cressida 85%

                    Comments:
                    I'M SO PROUD OF THE IMPROVEMENT! And so fast. This is a
                    stunning entry. I love it more and more as I look at it and read the description. The make up
                    choices are particularly stunning. The ONLY real issue the draws away is the pink is soooo
                    concentrated, but it feels like there should be something pink at the bottom.

                    Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 75%
                    Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:7
                    Comments:
                    I'm so happy with this look! It's beautiful, the wig is embraced, and
                    it is just really solid! But I would love some more in the description, more of the why and even
                    just referencing more lore of nymphs. But I do like this.

                    Kr-E — Priya 66.25%
                    Style:5 • Motif:6.5 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    One of my first thoughts when I found the wig was 'Mother Earth' so I
                    really love seeing this look. Very creative formatting. There is too much though. Too many
                    colors, too many layers of things, too much. Removing the big red flower would help too, it
                    feels oddly cheap and out of place compared to other things.

                    actualdeerooze — Zanna 85%
                    Style:8 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    A beautiful look! The dark tree framing is a little weird, and I wish it was
                    just a little bit clearer to see the actual outfit. And I'd love more details in the description, this
                    feels like an over correction. Also I wonder if deer meant to link the guide they gave a shoutout to.

                    Picaru — Pearl 93.75%
                    Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:10 • Description:9.5
                    Comments:
                    This is stunning. Pearl looks amazing, and Picaru did such a good job of
                    matching textures and bringing everything together! I'm not sure we needed the lillies of the valley
                    at the very front, they're a little large for everything? And while I agree there should be some white
                    added to the wig for this look, I'm not sure I like the white that was added.

                    wishflower — Maeve 82.5%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    When I first saw this entry, I really wasn't feeling it all that much
                    but as I started reading through the description it all started to click. I love the different
                    references and inside view of who wish is as a person, and it really added something
                    special to the look. I really liked adding flowers to the wig, and the more I looked at the
                    outfit the more I liked it. And wanted it. The Wither color scheme was well implemented.
                    Also impressed by the background items found! I think there are one too many elements
                    though. And as much as I like the theory of the bulldozer, I think it wasn't needed.

                    Comments:
                    Description is vastly improved! But I don't...see a lot of what was
                    described actually reflected in the look. HATE the filter. I would LOVE to see what was sold
                    to us in the description, derelict buildings and outfit with growth creeping through. But I see
                    none of that really. Why the glasses? Why the filter? There's too much white that is too clean
                    to be derelict and not enough green growing through. Maybe without the filter I could see a
                    few more of those details. But as it is? No.

                    If I never see this damn filter again, it'll be too soon. I can't see s**t.
                    The idea is interesting, certainly creative, but I don't really see it? What I can see of the outfit
                    is underwhelming. Also don't really understand how the wig plays in? Ugh..

                    Comments:
                    I...am conflicted. I love the description and the idea behind it, love the
                    general aesthetic. I like the color scheme - but not for this challenge. Nothing about this has a
                    damn thing to do with the wig and the differently colored underwear is distracting. But it just...
                    I don't get it for this challenge.

                    Comments:
                    Really strong description. Love the creativity and the idea of it, there is
                    something about the skirt and water combined with the pose that just doesn't really work for me.
                    I agree that there needs to be more coral. But I like this!

                    Comments:
                    I don't love the blocked face, and there's something weird in the
                    background, like something feels layered weird or a weird perspective, I'm not sure. But
                    this is a good look, loooove the greens and golds together, and the description was great.

                    I hate the bag, it is so dark and stands out which just completely
                    defeats the point of making a look that blends in. I love the idea of blending in to the bushes,
                    but I wish they had been green and not purple. Putting that and the bag aside, this is a good
                    look. The first front view is the best one, wish she'd just submit the one view.

                    I love the lighting effects in this look. The background looks great, too! Very whimsical.

                    Pretty, but a little lackluster imo. I would've done something different with the color scheme, or added more elements to it. It's not BAD - I just feel like it's missing something. The foundation is certainly there though!

                    Ok, this is super cute! I just didn't think the background blended in color-wise, but that didn't necessarily diminish the look so much. I like her overalls. I'm not a fan of the use of the mood bubble, but it wasn't a major infraction for me lol.

                    This one made me say "meh". Like, respectfully!!! But the narrative saved it. I'm not a big fan of the outfit itself, it's a bit plain, and the shadow obscures a good portion of the frame.

                    Challenge #3: ♥ XO Baby ♥
                    Description: Designers, love is in the air this week. Your models are all excited
                    for Valentine's Day, but they need a little help getting all dressed up to impress their
                    partners. They're working with a boudoir photographer to get just the right look to gift
                    for their date night. What their final photograph looks like it up to you! But it should be
                    seductive, hearts, and romance and bedroom eyes. Maybe throw on some Sabrina
                    Carpenter in the background this week as you work on the looks and bring out your
                    model's sexy side!


                    ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 88.75%

                    Comments:
                    THAT'S MY GIRL! I looove seeing someone take this challenge in a
                    different direction as far as colors and style. Naomi looks AMAZING, she is bold and just
                    oozes confidence. The gothic vibe is LOVELY. Love the added flips to the hair? I want to
                    give her a hug after the description and just tell her how amazing she is. And she was
                    right that the bangs were the right choice. All the items work together so well. Really like
                    only color being on her eyes and lips. I might have added some more definition to the skin?
                    But that is a minor thing.

                    Ananemain — Cressida 92.5%
                    Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    I love this. The more and more I look at it, the more and more I love it.
                    Items are blended together so well, it sells what Ananemain was aiming to sell. All the draped
                    fabric also has a vibe of a robe/sheet - perfect for the challenge - and builds anticipation. It's
                    like we're at the beginning of the shoot and things have fallen open to reveal just a touch of
                    the bra/and things underneath to hint at what is to come. At this point I really don't have a
                    distinct constructive criticism.

                    Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 67.5%
                    Style:6.5 • Motif:7 • Creativity:6.5 • Description:7
                    Comments:
                    Love that a different kind of background and pose was chosen, I really
                    like it that aspect of this entry. I also understand the darker pink blanket, but I think different
                    colors would have benefitted the look. Kimber's red hair stands out a bit jarringly, almost like
                    it wants to blend with the pink shades? If there were greens or blues used instead of pinks, I
                    think it would make her hair stand out in the right way. Kimber wanting to do this picture where
                    she stood out from everything. Don't love the tone of the chosen fishnets either. Good make up
                    but I think Kimber needed darker clothes than the innocent whites. Just disconnected.

                    This look is too dark. I understand the idea behind it and all the vibes
                    totally make sense, but it is just too hard to see. What I can see of the lingerie is very smartly
                    assembled though, and this color scheme is flattering on Priya. I don't think I like the piece
                    on the forehead? The front black candles also kind of float.

                    Comments:
                    There are a lot of roses! I'm not sure we needed the front and back
                    views. Looove that she gave Zanna and her partner a history and story. Happy Anniversary!
                    I think there is too much rose. Needed more green, or just...more space to breathe? This is
                    cute and I like it, but I think something needed to be left off.

                    Picaru — Pearl 100%

                    Comments:
                    This is - dare I say - perfect. It might feel a little too outdoorsy and not
                    entirely explained? But this is just amazing and I don't have the heart to actually knock points
                    for that or anything.

                    wishflower — Maeve 83.75%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    This is an amazing entry. I couldn't imagine a better description, there
                    is information on what is in the look and why, personal tidbits and just general knowledge.
                    I love it so much, haha. And it is a good outfit! Room is fully designed. Only issues are it
                    feels a little dark, and I don't love the make up/nose combination.

                    supersunshine506 — Marina 62.5%

                    Comments:
                    This is...difficult. Regardless of the message I am perplexed by the choice
                    to hide the outfit and make everything small font aside from the disclaimer. Then showing us all
                    of the views of the outfit reveals the rock disappears in the back views, hate that. Marina looks
                    beautiful though, these colors are very flattering. I like the frame. Description doesn't actually
                    talk enough about the process or construction.

                    lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 72.5%
                    Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:6
                    Comments:
                    This is very simple and straight forward...and I love it! I wish that there
                    was something on Jolene's outfit that drew in the dark flowers, though they are nice framing.
                    Just might have needed more if they were just framing/a bed of flowers to pose on? Or maybe
                    more pink flowers around? Idk, this is almost the opposite of actualdeer where there were too
                    many flowers. Love the pose. Need more from the description.

                    torimani — Harper 75%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:7.5
                    Comments:
                    Something looks weird in the face. Something between the eyeshadow
                    and the nose? I'm not sure what, but it changes the shape. I like the Marilyn Monroe energy
                    and the background set is flattering. Fun take on things for this to be a full outfit. The front
                    view is pretty busy though, and the back view is very simple, not sure I like that. Just kind
                    of feel very...meh over all at the end of the day.

                    Eziara — Imani 77.5%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    I love this look! The filter distorts things a bit more than I would like,
                    and the lingerie falls weird around the hip? Idk, I'm aware of it. BUT I like the frame, and
                    generally I really like the vibe.

                    NaturallyPragmaticChimera — Arden 57.5%
                    Style:5 • Motif:6.5 • Creativity:6.5 • Description:5
                    Comments:
                    I...don't know if this actually meets the challenge. And I don't like it.
                    I can't imagine a worst bow for the idea, the arrow is in the wrong spot, just too much. I don't
                    feel the romance or cupid or any of it. It's like an angel costume I guess? But just wrong for
                    the challenge. And I don't even think the look quite agrees with the description? I may be
                    biased and just harsh on Chimera, but this is just rough.

**•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*Challenge #3: ♥ XO Baby ♥ **•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*
Designers, love is in the air this week. Your models are all excited
for Valentine's Day, but they need a little help getting all dressed up to impress their
partners. They're working with a boudoir photographer to get just the right look to gift
for their date night. What their final photograph looks like it up to you! But it should be
seductive, hearts, and romance and bedroom eyes. Maybe throw on some Sabrina
Carpenter in the background this week as you work on the looks and bring out your
model's sexy side!


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 87.5%
Style:9 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: Naomi looks gorgeous in the dark and moody lingerie. She definitely stands out as the only one not wearing any pinks or reds in her outfit!
I especially love the bustle and Naomi's bangs. Girl looks like a queen. 8')))
The description is perfect and it hit me, as a woman with lots of body insecurities. I am sure I am not the only one who felt the description.
It is annoying how if a woman does not conform to specific runway model standards she is deemed as an "ugly"...

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Ananemain — Cressida 95%
Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:9
Comments: Oh, baby, what a banger! Cressida is looking breathtaking, lounging so comfortably as if waiting for an artist to come and paint her on their canvas.
I adore the colours, the soft background and overall the set items. Her look is elegant but sensual at the same time.
Art Nouveau and Mucha's art might easily sway me, so I think this is definitely one of my favourite entries from this round... ;33


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 63.7%
Style:6 • Motif:6.5 • Creativity:6 • Description:7
Comments: I think Kimber looks really cute in whites, and I like her pose a lot. I feel like this time it's the background that is coming a bit short of the whole entry.
The idea is nice, but the colours and shades are all so mismatched. Because of Kimber's fiery red hair, you need to lean into more whites, blacks, reds or complementary colours.
The description is good and I like your explanations, still, I think next time you need to go for darker stuff for Kimber! Go full Scorpio!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Kr-E — Priya 70%
Style:7 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
Comments: The dark colours look nice on Priya, but I am not too fond of the shadows and the fog. I feel like the fog is the biggest offender since it makes the candles look weird and changes the colours of the whole entry.
It's especially hard for me to decipher what's going on since my monitor hates shades of black and makes them merge into one dark unidentifiable mess. The circlet looks a bit weird and the rose bushes make me think of Christmas trees!
I do really like the description and the formatting you did. Overall, I would say, this is probably my least favourite out of Kr-E's entries.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ actualdeerooze — Zanna 71.25%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:9
Comments: I think the colours work for Zanna, but I think there's a biiiiiiit too much going on. The sparkly effects, and the huge sleeves I am not fond of... And honestly, I am not sure how her outfit looks.
It's just hidden behind all the things, so it ends up looking like a red blob. I do love the flower makeup and flowers in her hair!
The description is adorable and I love how much personality and backstory was included for Zanna.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Picaru — Pearl 100%
Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
Comments: And here I was sure Ananemain would be the winner this time... God, is this beautiful. I just love, love, love the colours, the clothes, the effects... everything is just so perfectly matched, it's kind of scary, haha!
And then there's a pun in the description-

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ wishflower — Maeve 85%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: Oh, what a lovely, well-thought-out entry. It's great that every choice has an explanation and your reasoning for it!
I love the mix of mythology, history and personal information. Just a chef's kiss!
I really like the outfit and the set, my only issue would be that I feel like Maeve's outfit is a little too dark compared to the background.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ supersunshine506 — Marina 60%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:6 • Description:4
Comments: I really like the colour scheme and the look itself is quite pretty. The makeup works wonders on Marina! I wish we only saw the front since other angles show some... wonkyness.
Cough, cough, disappearing rocks. The description is quite... short and lacking. The flavour text is nice, but we don't really get a lot of reasons for why you chose these items.
The disclaimer explains a bit, but I don't count it towards the description. Still, you could've explained why you went for a Venus look, there are many other non-sexual "sexy" designs you could've done. Why this one?
Also, what's this? A text for ants?

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 65%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:6 • Description:6
Comments: I like how simple and sweet it is, but I am not too fond of the colours. They're clashing a bit with Jolene's orange hair, maybe it's the pink crown(?) that's the issue.
And there's really nothing eye-catching here, especially when you compare it to the other entries. It's not bad, it's just... boring.
The description really doesn't... describe much. I feel like we could've gotten more and I believe you can make a better one next time!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Torimani — Harper 70%
Style:7 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
Comments: Oh, the background is lovely, it really gives Valentine's vibes! But, I am going to be honest... I didn't get any Marilyn Monroe/Hollywood vibes from it?
I thought it was just meant to be something... classical Greek, like a nymph or a take on Aphrodite.
The outfit is interesting and quite busy, which I honestly don't hate, especially since you didn't give Harper any hair accessories.
I think the makeup is a bit... too dark? Or too low? Maybe it's the blush that's weird. It looks a bit like she got beat up and has black eyes.
Also I wish the bushes on the sides were softer coloured, perhaps more pinkish with red than green with red. They feel a bit too dark!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Eziara — Imani 75%
Style:8 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:7
Comments: What a cute, pink look. She looks like the embodiment of Valentine's Day! I think the light ray filters on Imani might be too much, but I do like the big heart frame!
The outfit weirdly pools around Imani, which, I think might be because she has some silks on her arms + the filter alters it? It looks a bit off and makes her look very wide.
The colours are great and the description is fun, even with the flaws, it is a gorgeous look nonetheless!

Comments: Ahhh, I had such high hopes for you, but that's just not it! The description and the outfit are so mismatched I am confused. Okay, maybe the first sentence kinda matches the cupid look, but later?
I feel like it would suit her better to be sitting in a tee and underwear, and munching on chocolates or wearing some very intricate lingerie instead of doing a cupid cosplay. It's not even that cupid-y, more like a cupid-adjacent angel!

                    Designers, we've been doing a lot of challenges embracing color
                    this cycle. But this challenge we want to take things in another direction. Black is

                    haute goth. Black is required. Think couture, hundreds of hours put into bringing these
                    looks to life if they were in the real world, high fashion. Learn more about different styles

                    + Title is Avant Goth, and this look lives up to it in spades! Great job separating this look
                    from the look last week, obsessed with the dress.
                    - Gloves are a little shiny compared to other things (though I kind of like it), this look could
                    be a little bit more creative.

                    Comments:

                    + This is an amazing entry. There was so much thought put into it and amazing things in the
                    description. Love how it is built. Effects on the face were a risk, but it pays off.
                    - I wish the arm mod wasn't bare arms, though I appreciate it was a challenge to find ones
                    that didn't ruin the top. Sleeves, gloves, even a mod holding a black rose would have helped.

                    + Great look, well built and clearly came from the inspiration images. The passion and
                    excitement was evident at every level.
                    - I know black make up is difficult on Gaia, but I don't think this was the way to do it.
                    Maybe just adding one of the black eye lash sets would have worked better.

                    + Love this look, so much going on (in a good way!) and well balanced. Great description!
                    - The chains at the waist/crotch are a little distracting, this also feels a little expected? But
                    good look.

                    Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
                    Comments:

                    + I have made it clear how I feel about filters, but DAMN this one is amazing, used in a
                    perfect way. Love the face. Dancing with the skeleton! Embracing so much black! I also
                    really like the pink petals and the brightness they add.
                    - It is a little hard to see some of the details in the look, I still think the filter is worth it, but
                    it is still a little hard.

                    Comments:

                    +I'm obsessed with the face shadow and how the eyes are damn near fluorescent. Over
                    all very good look, meets the challenge and the personal goals wish was aiming for.
                    - I'm kind of distracted by the striped pillow/pile on the left, it is almost too light compared
                    to the rest of the look. The skin on torso is also weird, like scarred vs definition or anything.

                    supersunshine506 — Marina 72.5%
                    Style:6 • Motif:7 • Creativity:9 • Description:7
                    Comments:

                    + The color scheme is a good one - though not necessarily on Marina - and it was
                    very creative to do a winter tundra look, especially with so many garden looks.
                    - Stop. Showing. Every. Angle. The back views are awful, show very bad bit of layering.
                    Over all I just don't think this flatters Marina, especially when it comes to her hair. Just
                    don't like this.

                    lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 75%
                    Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:8
                    Comments:

                    + Cute look! Meets the challenge, smart to add off black elements and details to keep
                    things from looking too produced/automatic/whatever.
                    - While I like this, kind of meh. It feels more lolita than victorian.

                    torimani — Harper 73.75%
                    Style:6 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:8
                    Comments:

                    + Big props on the make up! Tori worked on it and it worked well. Really like the shape
                    of the outfit/the items used, very nice.
                    - I don't like the colors, particularly where they are used. It chops Harper up. Black top
                    is chopped by the purple belt and she's chopped again by the teal skirt. Very disjointed,
                    if the pieces were all the same colors it would be much more cohesive.

                    Eziara — Imani 85%
                    Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
                    Comments:

                    + Love the blues used and all the inspo, the veil was an amazing touch. Great background.
                    Really like that this one stand out a bit from the other entries.
                    - The make up looks like black eyes, just distracting, and there is something about this that
                    just feels...like it is too dainty to really be goth.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 90%
Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: This is a stunning look; it truly screams goth. Naomi looks just like a runway model.
I love the combination of a mermaid-style skirt with a corset. The addition of purple was a great idea to sell the look.
I think something shinier, like the gloves, could be added to finish off the look. Perhaps boots?

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Ananemain — Cressida 97.5%
Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
Comments: Oh, that's truly breathtaking, wow! I am amazed by how fitting goth fashion is for Cressida.
I just plainly adore the colour scheme used for Cress and the mourning widow idea. The fact how much real-life fashion was used as an inspiration.
Though I will agree, I would prefer some sort of arm mod that wasn't bare. Bare arms look kind of too bright and distracting.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 83.75%
Style:8.5 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: That's a very cute and simple look. My favourite part is the eye rose, it's a very unique idea compared to other entries!
Honestly, I kind of wish the colours were different. For example, I think the rose would look better if it was black; as of right now, it kind of melts into Kimber's hair.
I am also unsure about the makeup and the belt.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Kr-E — Priya 85%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: I actually really like the green/black combo; it makes Priya less monochromatic, and she's more eye-catching this way.
The veil was a great idea, and I like how Priyas's colours pop out of the background. I like the eye-shaped jewellery as well!
Though, I am not a fan of the mouth cover. It doesn't look great, and it also overlays on the veil itself. I would've preferred only the veil or only the mouth cover.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ actualdeerooze — Zanna 86.25%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8.5 • Description:10
Comments: The outfit itself is magnificent, I love love love it. I wish there was more red on her head, as her current head accessory kind of merges with her hair.
I'm also not too sure about the belt. I think the shape is a bit weird, and it has a slightly gold/bronze lineart, I wish you used a silver one instead!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Picaru — Pearl 97.5%
Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
Comments: Pearl's outfit is stunning, the execution is great, and we even got a thorough description of your thought process.
The only thing I am not too fond of is how gold the crown on the skeleton is. But that's something out of your powers.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ wishflower — Maeve 82.5%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8.5 • Description:8.5
Comments: The outfit itself is great, I like the mix of goth fashion in your entry. It's amazing how you were able to pull off such a beautiful outfit without using any major arm/leg mods!
My biggest gripe would be the background pillows. I wish they were less creamy in colour, something more gray would've looked much better.
I'm also not too fond of the nose mod/makeup, as it makes the face look a little disproportional.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ supersunshine506 — Marina 80%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:10 • Description:8
Comments: This colour scheme is great, and blacks look good on Marina. I love how cozy she looks, and a mix of floral and winter goth looks is very unique.
I really don't like the simple backdrop, I wish there was just something more - a grayscale forest, city, park, church, anything really. Simple backdrops can work well, but I think here it's a bit of a disadvantage.
We don't need to see all the angles showing off clipping issues... I can't stop staring at her a** out in the 4th picture.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ lucifer eats pizza — Jolene 67.5%
Style:6 • Motif:7 • Creativity:7 • Description:7
Comments: I like the colours on Jolene, and the outfit itself is very cute. She doesn't look that gothic to me, more like a gothic lolita. I wish you went more into romantic goth aristocrat style?
Or if you wanted to stick with the background, maybe more circus/carnival goth. The description doesn't make much sense to me, either. Gothic fair where you can find new spouses?
She's looking "sad" and "mournful" with a balloon? I am a bit confused by it all... aaaand the background clashes strongly with the outfit.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Torimani — Harper 80%
Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:9
Comments: This time, the makeup is just perfect, and I like the colour scheme. I don't know if it's fitting for Harper, but it for sure is making her stand out in the crowd of black-dressed gals.
I love the inclusion of bat wings and the skirt cage. The description is also great!
Overall, I think this is a nice outfit... but not relly for Harper, maybe for a different model?

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Eziara — Imani 85%
Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8.5 • Description:10
Comments: I love the idea and the inclusion of different shades of blue. Blue looks stunning on Imani! I think you could've added more black or maybe some sort of darker lower-body filter.
The makeup is a bit too intense, I think you should've picked only one eyeshadow. The outfit doesn't scream goth to me, to be honest. I see the inspiration and understand the logic. I just don't like it much for "goth".

                    Challenge #5: This Is No Green Screen
                    Spring look, no backgrounds

                    ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 95%
                    Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    I'm obsessed. Like I just can't stop looking at this look. Description
                    was lovely too, LOVE that Naomi is on brand for real world fashion. But what I
                    really love most is that while this is simple and very real world wearable, it is
                    also not lacking in details. Love the make up. The bracelets. The pose. The
                    skirt might be a little bit too white? But that is just like..the barest thing.

                    Ananemain — Cressida 82.5%
                    Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    The gasp I gusped when I reached the end of the description
                    and Ana said this was the PARED DOWN look. What did she have on it
                    before?! Like there is not a damn pixel without something going on here.
                    And it's pretty? I love every detail I settle on, but it is just too much and it
                    is too much work to focus on those details. SOMETHING needed to be
                    simple and not bedazzled or extra. This also feels like other looks that
                    we've seen Cressida in, same energy.

                    Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 60%
                    Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:2 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    This looks like something I would wear. It is a fine look, but it is just
                    completely casual and normal. And I'm kind of annoyed by the lazy assembly.
                    Moth just found items and put them on. No creative layering, no working to pair
                    shoes with another item, just..put things on. And put on what, five items? This
                    meets the challenge but that is just about it. I just want more. Especially in the
                    creativity department.

                    Kr-E — Priya 100%
                    Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    Okay, this look has a lot going on and I know I came down on Ana for
                    how much was thrown onto Cressida...BUT this works for me! Like this is so very
                    flattering, and it is so nice. Priya is a floral Spring goddess. Love the make up. Is
                    there henna or like a...skin discoloration on her hand touching her face? I think
                    what helps so much with this look vs. the Cressida look is I can see so much of
                    Priya's body and it breaks things up. I like the orange flower shade chosen. It is
                    just wonderful.

                    actualdeerooze — Zanna 80%
                    Style:8 • Motif:80 • Creativity:80 • Description:80
                    Comments:
                    This is great! Cute. Flattering colors. I love the giant leaf with dew,
                    but that might be my favorite part. Though I do love all the thought put into the
                    silhouette. The sheer green flare at the hip keeps snagging my gaze and Idk why.

                    Picaru — Pearl 91.25%
                    Style:8 • Motif:8.5 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    I'm almost bored at how good Picaru is, and how good Pearl looks
                    all the time. xD I don't like the wood of the umbrella, something about it is too
                    dark with everything else. But I love this and it fits the theme. I would like it to
                    be more saturated though, amp up everything to kind of match the dark wood
                    rather than so soft. Of course Pearl looks good soft, but we've seen it a lot. I'm
                    ready for something different and new.

                    wishflower — Maeve 87.5%
                    Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
                    Comments:
                    I really love this look, this color scheme is divine on Maeve and I
                    love seeing her more feminine. The only issue for me is the black vest.
                    I love the idea of anchoring the look with a darker top, but I would have
                    liked it to be the color of the boots or a little darker but that same family.

                    supersunshine506 — Marina 50%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:6.5 • Creativity:6 • Description:0
                    Comments:
                    I'm giving a zero on the description, simply because she doesn't
                    seem to be learning and I'm tired of saying the same thing. The description
                    needs to describe, not just narrate the vibes. And again, every angle hurts
                    the look because the back plaid is just weird and confusing. This was a cute
                    look though, I like the giant bow and that it is different from the other spring
                    looks. Blush is adorable. Kind of confused by the top - because of the plaid
                    I see on the back view - and trying to understand what is happening where.
                    If only there was something to describe the thought process...

                    I LOVE THIS! This campy a** adorable strawberry look has me
                    living. So damn cute and lovely, the floating strawberries add a nice dyanmic
                    element. Well balanced. Draws on Harper's colors well. I've got nothing bad
                    to say about this one.

                    Eziara — Imani 97.5%

                    Comments:
                    This is pretty much perfect. Nails every maypole note that was aimed
                    for, and all without the backgrounds that have become expected for these looks.
                    The arms are a good choice, GREAT color scheme for Imani. There's something
                    about the white corset with black buttons that is standing out, and her lower arm
                    feels a little disconnected, but those are very small nit picks.

                    Keeping this short and sweet, the background is a little bit too dark
                    but this outfit is chef's kiss. Nailed the length - which is hard to do! - and tells a story.

                    Okay, this look kind of sent me on a spiral, and I can't believe Gaia
                    doesn't have like a quintessential mall background. Like I wanted a food court.
                    Didn't find it. But there are backgrounds that I think were much better than the
                    one chosen, either better colors or that give the vibe of malls/a store/etc. that
                    could have fit an 80s look. Or gone to the movies, or idk. This is a very 80s
                    look though. I think I would remove the sparkles and the background to just
                    highlight the look a bit more. Don't love the face shadow.

                    Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber (1920s) 66.25%

                    Give us liberty pants, or give us death! I love that Moth gave us a
                    look with pants and didn't do the stereotypical 1920s flapper look. That
                    bumps up her creativity score from the other look. But this has the same
                    problem where it is just so simple. Give me SOMETHING. Tell a story in
                    the background. Add accessories. Show me why Kimber is dressed in
                    this sport wear, show some kind of sport or a horse to ride. Is she on the
                    run? I need more. Give me the full story. Full picture. Just..this is so basic
                    and it makes me sad.

                    Kr-E — Priya (1970s) 86.87%

                    The little detail of picking the tile floor in the popular color scheme from
                    the 70s is kind of brilliant. The pants are very white. And the shoes very blue. Also just
                    a lot happening on the head, I think there needs to be one less item or one less color.
                    But this is fun, and it suits the decade.

                    actualdeerooze — Zanna (1910s) 88.75%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:9 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    This is a good look, Zanna is beautiful and it is appropriate for the
                    1910s. I'm not sure about the hat. I completely understand why it was chosen,
                    I do, but I'm not positive it is worth it. Just doesn't fit with her hair. And again,
                    by showing every single view and angle, it just highlights it. But otherwise this
                    is really good. Perfect description.

                    Picaru — Pearl (1950s) 83.75%
                    Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
                    Comments:
                    LOVE that this is different for Pearl, and love this direction for 1950s.
                    I don't have any problem with the hair wrap and it altering the hair, but it is almost
                    over powering? Like it is so much red, and a red that doesn't match the shoes, and
                    the glasses are another color but kind of in the same part of the color wheel. And
                    covering both the hair and the eyes - while not rule breaking - is a little much for
                    me. Like I like this, but it isn't as good as some of the others for this challenge.

                    wishflower — Maeve (1990s) 92.5%

                    Another EXCELLENT look from wish this week, this double header
                    was no challenge at all based off these looks. This look embodies the 90s in so
                    many ways, and I really love the detail of the frosty eye make up. The only thing
                    missing is more accessories. A necklace, a belt, earrings, bracelets, whatever. I
                    think a necklace or two could have worked well with the look. But regardless, it
                    needed more accessories.

                    supersunshine506 — Marina (1960s) 78.75%

                    So she can write a description! Shocking. My biggest issue with this
                    look is the headband. Right style, color either needed to match the rest of the
                    look or be a totally different color. I would have opted for totally different I think,
                    either a pop or a true neutral. Very impressed with the matching on the top and
                    pants and how that was assembled. Like the personal notes in the description.

                    torimani — Harper (1900s) 90%
                    Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:9 • Description:9
                    Comments:
                    This is another amazing look. Absolutely NAILED the 1900s goal.
                    Really like the over the top aspect of the hat, and the dress. However.....
                    I don't like the phone? in the background. It is large and dark and stands
                    out in a jarring way. Also while I love the sipping of the tea, the arm holding
                    the saucer is just like gone. Disappeared into the dress and angle. And in
                    general Harper just blends too much with the background.

                    Eziara — Imani (1940s) 98.75%

                    Are designers actually just killing it this week, or am I just feeling
                    super nice? This immediately speaks to the vibe and era Ez was aiming for,
                    and I just love it. The sparkle effect on the blush isn't on theme, but it looks
                    so good. My only real issue is the skirt length. Everything looks fantastic!
                    But that skirt is the wrong length for the era.

**•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*Challenge #5: This Is No Green Screen **•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚*
Designers, this week we want you to bring some joy to the runway!
I'll be honest, I'm ready for sunnier weather to arrive and I'm hoping if we work together
we can manifest it. So this week we're asking you to bring a spring look to life! But maybe
that is too easy for this stage. You know, there are certain items and themes that divide
the judges every challenge, and one of the most divisive topics? Backgrounds. So for
this challenge we are taking them away! That's right designers, no backgrounds allowed
for these entries. No full or partial background. Where is the line between partial background
and just using an item in the background? There is no clear answer for that, but know the
judges will err towards docking points for backgrounds.


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ ThoughtsofaDame — Naomi 90%
Style:8 • Motif:9 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
Comments: I love the colour scheme and I think it looks amazing on Naomi. Those are her colours!
Honestly, there's not much I can say that is negative, my only gripe is the shirt. I don't like how it lays around her belly.
It looks weird, as if it was cut to make a crop top and the rest of her body got painted green.
Other than that, it's a perfect entry with a great description!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Ananemain — Cressida 81.25%
Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:9
Comments: Wow, this is an intense entry, and it's pared down... I think it looks pretty, it's great honestly.
It looks very goddess-like, but I can't imagine someone wearing that on a normal day. Which I think was the point?
I can imagine Cressida wearing it to a play as an actress, or just for a photo shoot.
The colours, description and outfit itself are nice, but I think it's just... too much.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Sleepy Luna Moth — Kimber 61.25%
Style:6.5 • Motif:7 • Creativity:3 • Description:8
Comments: An opposite issue from Cressida's outfit, this one is just too boring.
It is nice, casual, and looks pretty cute and comfy, but there's just... nothing. It lacks some sort of spark.
The colours don't work with the dark pants, I feel like Moth should've leaned hard into pastel or
darker tones. Not this weird in-between.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Kr-E — Priya 100%
Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
Comments: Oh, woah. I adore these colours, they look breathtaking on Priya! They make her look so vibrant!
I love how this whole entry feels like a less intense, better version of Ananemain's entry. The colours look better,
the flower crown looks more natural, and it has fewer layers. It's just perfect.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ actualdeerooze — Zanna 77.5%
Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
Comments: Aww, Zanna looks adorable and light purple suits her well! I like the idea, but I feel like there's too much...
Pattern? We got dots, flowers, stars... And I like the backpack, but... why does she have a handbag? Does she need both?
I think deer should've stuck to only dots and flowers. Minus that handbag.
Also what's with that green goop on Zanna's cheek?

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Picaru — Pearl 97.5%
Style:10 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
Comments: Waaah... Pearl looks so pretty... Picaru is just too good, I love all of their entries, haha.
I will agree though, we need more different looks for Pearl, other than soft pastels. I want to see more creativity!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ wishflower — Maeve 82.5%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8.5 • Description:8.5
Comments: This is such a cute outfit, and I like the colours on Maeve! I don't really like the dark brown vest
with the light brown boots. And then add to that Maeve's hair, and we have three different shades of brown,
all clashing with each other for our attention. And also there's some weird black void behind Maeve's bag?


☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ supersunshine506 — Marina 40%
Style:5 • Motif:5 • Creativity:5 • Description:1
Comments: No description, ******** up angles. It's like talking to a wall.
The entry is boring, I don't like it. The plaid shirt, the striped bracelet... and the big bow.
It just doesn't work for me. It feels even more low effort than Moth's entry.

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Torimani — Harper 90%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
Comments: Aww, she looks like she's out of Strawberry Shortcake. I like the top part of the entry, but I don't
like the skirt that much. It has a weird cutting glitch and is a bit too saturated in comparison to the hat and top.
But it's still very cute!

☆═━┈┈━═☆

✩ Eziara — Imani 97.5%
Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:10
Comments: The outfit is so pretty, and Imani does look like a vintage Victorian-era illustration. The Maypole theme is
also a very creative take! I love the colours and the dress you made for Imani!
I wish the corset was more off-white, leaning towards cream colour though. I think then it would've been a perfect 100%!
