This kind of portraiture's "look" is I believe impossible in colour.

@pentaxuser I agree. I truly adore Black and White for the simplicity it can bring to an image.

Very beautiful portrait with her nice look.
Rollei Retro 80 looks like almost Ilfords XP2 Super film if I am not wrong!

@Afselius Thank you for your kind words. I’ve never tried XP2, but I will now!

A brighter 'catch light in her dark eye, would have really helped this image, but as is, her dark eye is almost dead.

Next time be on the look out for this missing factor, it's important, especially seeing the bright white under eye, which is missing in the other eye, makes the weak catch light all the more important.

Also, when you do print this, consider burning in the solo fabric fold on her darkside, so it simply becomes part of the 'Dark' and more mysterious.

IMO.

Otherwise, good job.

@eli griggs That is fantastic advice that I hadn't really paid attention to. Thank you for taking the time to notice and relay that.

@eli griggs Thinking about it even more, I guess the rule of thumb should be either leave that side totally dark or at least have a noticeable catch light.
