Seen on FM-Style: Miss Independent


For Task 9 we did something that we never did before. Judith wrote a text about a fictional character and the contestants had to interpret the text and create an outfit appropriate for that person. Here's the text: 

"You could tell without knowing her that she was a confident independent woman. She walked everywhere like she owned the floor she was stepping on. She had never been an insecure person, she had never worried about others opinion. She didn’t have to pretend because she already fitted in. Her arrogance, her snobbishness, her pride emanated from every pore in her skin while a deep desire of disconnecting from her hectic life popped a little big through her clothes choice. She was who she was, and for an unknown reason people seemed to like her."

And then, for all the judges to have in mind the same idea, she also wrote some guidelines for them. However, contestants could write a different description as long as it matched the character. Here are the guidelines: 

- “deep desire of disconnecting from her hectic life” = Little exotic details (feathers, jewelry, something ethnic, something related to nature…)
- “people seemed to like her” , “She didn’t have to pretend because she already fitted in"  = Nothing too strange or extravagant, her clothes and appearance has to be likeable for the general public.
- “Her arrongance, her snobbishness, her pride emanated from every pore in her skin” = Elegant and luxury clothes.
- “she had never worried about others opinion” = Outfit with personality, nothing too common.
- “confident independent woman” = Adult’s clothes (avoid backpacks, converse sneakers…) and that shows self-assurance.

And after all this long introduction, 4 contestants did this task, but my favorites have been... 


Even the 2 outfits together look good, like they are exactly on the same street! 
We have Rawan (bornthiswaay) on the left, with a perfect outfit that described exactly the characteristics, but for me was a little too classy and was missing something more special, more exotic. That was the factor that made Teresa's (platinumgals) outfit my favorite. As I said on the feedback I wrote to her, for this task I was looking for this "I'm perfect without trying" look, and I think she totally made it. Looks like she just picked some items from her wardrobe put them all together and then tied her hair and added some red lipstick and ready to go. I just love it! 

Unfortunately, Felipe (yulissahermosa) decided to focus on other things besides Stardoll, so he dropped out of the cycle. As one contestant was already out, there was no other elimination besides him.
