I love the attitude and stylization of the croquis. So often designers on DA leave off the face or draw a hasty, boring pose and slap the clothes on it, not taking time to consider that the post invokes the attitude and therefore buyability of the clothing. I'm glad you were able to give the clothing movement and attitude in this essential and usually overlooked step.
I would like to note, however, that you can improve upon this slightly to make it even that much more better. The first things that distracted me from the garment - and although the croquis attitude and style are important, it should never distract from the clothing - is the lack of a hand and her hair. If you are going to show the hand, as you have brought it to the foreground of the drawing, be sure the draw out the hand completely. If you do not, it is a distraction because the audience will be looking at the hand wondering what it is, and if there is no hand there, where it went.
Her hair is big. And pointy. Although I understand the direction of stylization you were going for, even this hair needs to look like hair. I would practice drawing the style in a more light and airy approach, and if product is used to create this style, somehow show this. Begin with the lightest color first, which would be a pale yellow. I am assuming you are using Prismacolors. With the fine end of the next darker color - a yellow orange - draw in the highlights to the hair, using lines to indicate "strands". Then do the same with the next darker color - reddish orange - only less so than the yellow orange. You can blend it a bit if you'd like by going over slightly with the pale yellow again. Add highlights with a white gel roller pen.
On the clothing, please take care with the drape of the fabric. I do not know what type of fabric you are using, but I am confused to whether the skirt is pleated or ruffled. there is little drape to determine they are garments. Check out 9Heads by Nancy Reigleman - she gives wonderful advice on how to properly indicate clothing on a figure.
I hope this helps! Cant wait to see more from you.
