Tyra...Buffy: Tyra, I think this is a good photo - I think you look beautiful and I love the colors. That being said, it doesn't really fit the challenge because you can barely see the clothing. This was about looking good in haute couture, but we are getting a head and shoulders shot from you. I think if we could have seen the whole body shot this would have been fabulous. For a first submission, this isn't bad, but if you stay, definitely take your time and ask questions if you need to. Holly: I have to echo Buffy with this one...I love the pic..you really do look beautiful, but this should have been a full body shot...this is just okay for me. Raquel I have to say that ain't my favourite photo, as Buffy and Holly say you don't show the clothing and the body is very important for a model, I also think your eyes look slightly tired... sorry.

Maggie...When i think of high fashion i think of big hats maybe fun and cray outfits so it was no question i needed to turn this in for this photoshoot.Buffy: Maggie, this is pretty wild. I actually like this. At first it didn't strike me as my idea of haute couture, but I did a doubletake when I saw it. I think this is definitely high fashion, I'm really liking the pose, and I really love that hat. Good job! Holly: I dont know why, but Im soo distracted by your left arm...at first I thought maybe this was a drawing and not a real photo..again, this is just okay for me. Buffy: You're distracted by her left arm? I thought you were talking about the body paints but that would be her right arm.... Holly: LOL...um, (thats what I meant ) Raquel Oh I absolutely love this, the pose and the face it looks like a manequins and when I think of high fashion I think of manequins, this is my fave so far, good job Maggie!

Gisele... Buffy: Gisele, I've always liked this photo, but I don't think it's my idea of haute couture. It doesn't look like high fashion, and I think you did have a couple in your roughs that would have been a bit closer to fitting the challenge. I did a search and found a couple that would have been awesome. Bottom line, though I wouldn't call this high fashion, I like the photo. I can't say I love it just because I've seen it so many times, but when I first saw it I know I really liked it. Holly:honestly, I do not love this picture and it really doesnt fit the theme at all. Raquel I am honestly very disspleased by this photo, I thought there were better ones and this one just doesn't fit the theme, also I feel that the way you pose your body makes you look anorexic and I feel really distrubed by that. Just sayin' Buffy: I definitely don't see anorexic here. Gisele's definitely got the curves (and I guess that doesn't hurt, since she's the richest model in the world). Raquel You can be anorexic and curvy

Julia... Yeah, I decided to play it on the safe side this week. I'm not sure where you judges stand with "high fashion shots" just yet, so I decided to just go with this. She looks undeniably beautiful, and the dress looks gorgeous. Even if this shot wasn't quite what you were looking for with the theme, she still looks amazing.Buffy: Julia, I think this is very pretty and you do look gorgeous. I think you played it a bit safer than I would have liked....you had a couple in your rough drafts that were just hot. I do think this fits the theme, however, and you look great, so good job! Holly:Finally, Julia I really like this...your face looks beautiful, the dress is great and you nailed the challenge. Great job! Raquel I 100% agree with Holly, you did exactly what we were expecting for this challenge, good job girl!

Emma...I love this photo! It's so different and it's even edgy for high fashion...I hope you guys love it but if you don't oh well, I adore this!Buffy: This is okay, Emma. I do agree it's edgy and high fashion, I just don't really love the pose or the expression....and it's so small. It's not the worst, by any means but not my favorite. Raquel I love this photo Emma, its high fashioned and different, also modeling is all about weird poses to show out the features of the face and body so I absolutely love this, the way your right feet is posed it helps to show much more of the outfit, my only concern might be the way you posed your head since it doesn't let us look at your face. Holly I completely agree with you Raquel. Emma I like this, I think your pose is fun and you totally met the challenge. Great job.

Catrinel...Buffy: Catrinel, I love this. It's beautiful, smart, edgy, and what balance! I also love the dress. Good job! Holly Oh I love this. Its funny because most of the high fashion wear...I would never be caught dead in, but I really love this dress and you look great. Raquel I really like this photo, the way you sway your body lets us see the lenght and quality of the dress, your face looks amazing as well... I can't find anything wrong with this, good job.

Natasha...I choose this one because she looks better than the other ones.Buffy: Natasha, I like this. It's haute couture, you look great, your pose is great. It just leaves me really wanting to see your face because the rest of you is so beautiful. I do think you make this work even with the shadows, though. Good job! Holly I find the shadow really distracting. This is just okay to me, but you did meet the challenge..so good job. Raquel I don't really like this photo, I don't dislike the shadow but I feel the way the body is arched its... I just don't like this pic, sorry.

Tiiu...After agonizing back and forth over 3 pics and then 2 I am finally sending in my final submission.Buffy: Tiiu, this is definitely high fashion. I don't know what she's doing with the chair, but her dress looks good. That being said, I was really hoping you would have picked another one in your rough drafts. I like this but it wasn't my favorite of yours. I think it's mostly because it's hard to see your face. Holly Tiiu..I really like this. The pose is a bit odd, but you took a risk and I think it works for you. Good job. Raquel I asbsolutely love this picture, its really pretty and at first glance it looks like a painting from the Renacaince (is that how its written?), the way you used the arms helps to give a really good effect for the pose of the body. Good job

Adriana... Buffy: Adriana, I don't think this is really Haute Couture, although I do think you look lovely in it. I like the pose, I like the colors, I just don't think it fit the challenge very closely. I see something in your rough drafts that would have worked better. One thing I DO love is your eyes in this. You sure know how to work 'em, girl. Holly I agree with Buffy...this really doesnt meet the challenge...but I dont think you are the worst of the bunch either. Raquel I agree with my fellow judges however I don't like the eyes, I however like the mouth Elimination to be posted later today
