I'd rethink that dress texture then. The scarf really sticks out. Maybe a button down texture. It looks as though her right hand wants to rest on the curve of her waist. Her left hand, however, is a complete mystery. First thing I thought when I saw it was that it looks like the ASL sign for "juice". There's just nothing she can do with that hand pose to support any part of her upper body. His hand is floating over her, and the hand is too tense to be reaching for her. The grabbing fingers don't match the rest of his body language. His left hand seems out of place. The way they are posed now, they look like mannekins set up in close proximity of eachother. Suggestions: Put her legs back together. You'll get a more streamlined curve, and he can rest his hand on her hip. It'll help with the gravity thing too, as you can shave off the top line of the dress in postwork with a clone brush so it gives the illusion of hanging on her body. Move her left arm/hand down to rest on the couch so she can use it to support her upper body. Have the characters be interacting with eachother in some way. What's their story? What emotions do you want this image to convey? You've got a good start. This image has the potential to be fabulous, but right now there's no substance here, just props. It's all very empty. I love the BG image. I also like both the color and the monochrome.
