Very interesting pose. I'd almost want to see her head turned slightly to her left while keeping her eyes on the camera. This would help complete the S curve that is started with the pose as you have it.

Lighting is a little bright but I think it really works here especially with the mood I think you are trying to go for here.

I really like the contrast of the light against her hair. I'd like to see a tighter crop of just the head and hair.

Quite the alluring portrait. Like the backlighting(?) to achieve the softness of her outline. Great portrait. My top pic.

She looks posed uncomfortably. I'm not a big fan of posed studio model shots, however, this is setup somewhat more interesting with the different lighting effect you've achieved.
