I started going through the queue and I was going to try and do the whole thing, thinking there would only be a handful of stand outs, but I got to just over a month in and realised this was going to become the worlds biggest blog if I didn't stop there.
So for the first time, here's the sets I wish I could speed up time to see right now if I could!
@bully shot by @alissa, one of my favourite SG's with one of my favourite photographers on the site, this is gonna be good.
@august_ by the infamous @gemmaedwardsuk who does no wrong, if this isn't bought I'll be blown away, honestly.
not sure why @bandit is still a hopeful? also by @alissa and this cover photo alone tells me it's going to be an incredible set, if I ever go travelling the world, I hope you and I get to shoot togethre @bandit!
@beckah by another one of my all time favourite photographers, @r_girardi. I've absolutely adored all six of your previous sets @beckah, and by the looks of this cover this is possibly your first outdoor set? super keen to see how it turned out, you're amazing.
If I ever need pose inspiration, I go check out @coralinne's past sets, I'm not convinced you're real, I think you're one of SG's best assets. there's not a single set I haven't loved by @talena, she's really got her SG style perfected and you're constantly raising the bar.
@ivylina when I had red hair I had people tell me we looked alike, I wish! you're incredible, and again, really not sure why you're still a hopeful, please let @andrealaz's set of you be the one!
Until tonight I hadn't heard of @ondinae, but just from this cover I'm in love. Your hair colour is gorgeous and the overall colour scheme of this set looks killer, less than a week! @mel_andthebeast your sets are phenomenal, if this is going to be anything like all your past work, I'm going to love the hell out of this set.
I don't think it's any secret @flowerbomb is my all time favourite Suicide Girl. Big call to make? Yep, that's fine. I'm making it. As a photographer I look for more than just a pretty girl in sets. I love originality and emotion, not only does @flowerbomb tick those boxes but she takes it a whole level further with the locations and themes of her sets. Anytime anyone asks me what my all time favourite set on Suicide Girls is, Amuse Yourself is always the first that comes to mind. Considering the photographer of Amuse Yourself is the same guy as this one coming out, I'm eagerly anticipating this one.
Everything about this cover photo reels me in. The hair, the quality of the photo and especially the fact you have two different coloured eyes, we're a rare kind and I'm always really excited by finding others with the same mutation for some reason! Welcome to the site @maryberry!
fuck me dead. I don't think there's a single person in the world who doesn't know how much I love @vorpal. I can't believe this set is almost out already, it feels like just yesterday we were in your hotel room looking at it just before it was submitted (and I was trying to discretely push my bulging eyeballs back into their sockets). @puffin creates the most magical sets, this is gonna be snapped up and made front page at the first possible opportunity.
My girl @arcadia by the talented @coolicio from the Melbourne Shootfest. Wasn't that just yesterday...? This set screams pink, there's probably going to be riots if she's not made official this year, just saying.
@queenblossom by @gemmaedwardsuk, at first scroll I thought Chad had gone red! Those eyes.. wow. Talk about captivating. If I were in charge, this set would be bought just on the cover photo's merit.
Fellow Melbourne lady @keto_sgh by @atlanticlungs, the autumn leaves in the background and the blue hair combo has me on the edge of my seat, this is gonna be good. (p.s. you're on my list of girls to shoot someday @keto_sgh, come find me if/when you're up for it!)
@verde is perfection, she literally does no wrong. she could shoot a set in a potato sack and it would be so good she'd start a trend. But everyone else would just look like potatoes in the sack. you're one of a kind @verde (and also on my dream list of girls to shoot, so if you're in Melbourne and feel like shooting, I'm willing!) can't wait to see this one @pebblezink!
@paloma is the epitome of Suicide Girls, she's the most mind blowing model and extremely talented behind the camera too, I'm forever going by your sets as a guide for what I need to do. Your hair is something of a trademark too and believe me when I say everyone admires what you must go through to upkeep it. amazing. @aymi is another SG photographer I raise both arms to and essentially worship. you are truly a master of shooting sets.
@lexiacon by @victory, not only is this the perfect cover photo, but it was also shot at our joint shoothouse at the 2015 Melbourne Shootfest. I wasn't in the room to witness this set being shot but boy of boy I wish I was!
@vinture by @varga, this is gonna be so good! not only does @vinture have the hair colour I wish I had in his, but the texture of the blanket and the whole tone of this looks too good to be true, 4 weeks is going to fly by, I've got my fingers crossed this set pulls you both over the line!
I can't believe @karanlit is a Hopeful. If Flowerbomb is my favourite SG, @karanlit is by far my favourite Hopeful. Every set is unique and stunning, and I'm going to lose my mind if this set doesn't do the trick.
@arriane by @lady, I adore both these girls and all their sets, this is a guaranteed amazing set, I don't even need to see it in whole to know. (but I really really want to! please let the next month fly!)
Aussie team @audreylou and @danielklaas, calling it now, but this is definitely going to be the coolest retro/vintage inspired set for the year. Every preview I've seen is perfect, and both individuals are incredible. Them as a team is going to be something special.
Longggg time favourite Hopeful of mine is @miaa, and I'm sick of calling her a Hopeful! She's beautiful and bubbly, and I would give anything to have her long healthy hair (as pictured). Every set I've seen of @miaa is always a step up from the one before, and I cannot wait to see what you've produced with legendary @gemmaedwardsuk. Cmon Suicide Girls, do the thing and pink her please!
And before I had to force myself from stopping my venture through the queue so this blog didn't turn out to be as long as the 6th Harry Potter novel, is @coolicio by glitter god @maddame. These two ladies are truly next level and I can only imagine what they came up with together. Someone seriously needs to get me a time machine so we can fast forward this release.
