Looks like a fun shoot.

I'm a bit surprised that, for a "fashion" shoot,
the clothing is lost in the shadows
and/or
lost in the busy backgrounds.

It's been a decade and a half since I've shot fashion.
Though at that time and previous back to the mid sixties
it was always about the clothes - the "fashions"

even when the makeup and/or hair was the highlight
some significant attention was given to at least some of
the lines and textures of the outfits.
