@sleepyjean I'm with you that Sears photo studio background is laughable. I mean I know it's because they want to have a better idea of the colors of the suit against ocean and sky as opposed to white walls but I mean cmon you can spend hundreds of thousands on calendar production and not drop $100 on a better background?!? 

I actually like the pattern of Khalyns suit, it's pretty and different but the cut of the bottom is just baaaaaad.

Kelsey, Maggie, Mandy and Stephanie look amazing. If Tasha can't work that white suit, nobody can. It's just an ugly suit.

Milan probably looks the least flattering. 

Some of these girls would look better with some more coverage or something to make them look less hard and stringy in swimsuits. Give them some ruffles or something.

Yes-- Maggie, Kelsey, and Cersten look wow! 

Least flattering -- for me, it's Yuko. I get zero sex appeal. I know Kelli gets lady wood every time she sees Yuko but all I see is scared little girl. 

I hope their stylist has those bottoms up on the hips more. I keep seeing the bottoms going straight across in so many pics. I think it's cutting off the girls and making them look boxy instead of shapely.

Agree on Raylee - I thought she was so meh when she made squad but ended up looking fabulous at the calendar shoot last year and just keeps getting prettier and more photogenic all the time!  Her hair, make up, figure...all on point.  Go girl!! 

Kelsey is flawless. Period. It would be a crime almost if she weren't to make it back and they couldn't use her photos. I am confident she's going to kill it tho at auditions (I know I am basically alone in this lol Team Kelsey!)

 I was also really impressed with how stunning Maggie looks! I have always thought she is beautiful but i thought she was one of the best looking there yesterday! I expected Mandy to outshine her as the tall lean blonde but was more impressed with Maggie (tho mandy is such a barbie too) And Tess looked better than I remembered. 

Really excited to see Bess and Robin back  - I was so afraid they both might retired, love them both! 

Curious to see how it goes for Heather H and Maddie...I think they are both cute as buttons with great figures but just not sure if they'll look too young or not?

Yuko's body is very long and lean, that swimsuit doesn't do her any favors. The bikini bottoms are wayyy too low.

You're never alone with Team Kelsey cause I'm on that Team too lol love her.

Heather H and Maddie, even Allie and Milan look like teens at the pool.

I like Kelsey too. And I agree about Heather, Maddie, Allie, and Milan. But I think it would be weird for Kelli to have them on the team for a whole season and then decide their look isn't right for the DCC. I could see a couple of them getting cut if they get outdanced, but not on looks. Especially since their bodies are still on point. There's something to be said for those really young girls. It's not as difficult for them to maintain because they don't have their adult bodies yet.

I don't see them being taken off the team for looks, but I don't see them posing sexy in the calendar either lol. Holly is only a year or so older than some of them and she looks 10x older.

I am sure they can find the right swimwear and poses.

Speaking of poses...the way Jessika and Milan are posed makes them look so wide, which I'm sure they are not.  And Yuko's pose makes her look like she has back fat, which again, I'm sure she does not. Unpopular opinion, I do not like Amy L's hair at all.  I think Kelsey, Cersten, and Madeline look great!

Not going to lie but Chantal's fake chest just look so painful. Reminds me of the mom in the movie Mean Girls - remember her?  As far as twins go, Kyndall is a much prettier version of Chantal.  Too bad about the dancing / performing!

Chantal's always look new, Tasha's definitely don't but you can tell hers are fake.

I'm neither here nor there wth Holly but she looks beautiful in that yellow suit.

Agreed! It's one of my favorites. 

I like most of what @California Girl posted for us - thank you!! My only real beefs are with the overly skimpy bottoms. Stephanie's in particular. Her body is so killer and they can do her better justice. 

Mandy is so fab and Maggie too...here's hoping they don't give her too much black eyeliner for once.

They all look great and calendar ready. This year I'm expecting great photos from Kelsey and Raylee. I think Raylee is hands down one of the most gorgeous women on the squad. I saw another suit on Yuko that looked better than the one she is pictured in above. K & J do a great job in matching the suits with the girls as far as colors with skin/hair tones. 

Same! She and Mandy are sooo beautiful to me!

Wow, Kelsey looks fantastic in her swimsuit photo.  All the random straps on that bikini would give most people unsightly bumps and fleshbulges but she looks great in it!

She really does. It's so flattering.

Is it just me or do some of the bottoms look way too low? Yuko and Selina for example. 

The bottoms are too low and straight across, it makes the women look boxy.  I prefer some rise to a bikini.

Tess looks great as a swimwear model, but does not stand out as a DCC.

Some of these girls are so skinny that they have no chest and the swimsuits don't look good on them. Amy L is super adorable, but has no chest so the bikini does nothing for her.

No chest and no hips, which makes them look like they have straight waists. I don't think that stringy over muscled look is cute unless you're a body builder.

I wonder if taking amazing photos at the calendar shoot can help a DCC who is on the line make the team again?  

My advice for some of these young women would be to let loose and have fun, and try not to look constricted, stiff, or self-conscious when taking photos for the calendar shoot.  Kelsey knows how to pose more naturally, you can tell she does some catalogue modeling.  And Holly P., Lacey, and Maggie are naturals at seeming completely themselves and at ease.  Tess looked like playful in the one where she is facing backwards and looking behind her.  But some others have more of the I-don't-know-where-to-put-my-arms, face-to-the-camera, posing-for-my-fourth-grade-class-picture look.  Better work on those poses with family or friends before the calendar shoot, because I imagine that bad photos (like Caila's last year, albeit because of weight) can hurt a candidate on the margins.

No offense to Kelli, but WTH!!! I'm sorry, but she does not look healthy to me at all. She looks older to me than the rest of the girls. A little meat on the bones and a different hair color and style might brighten her up. I am not saying she is ugly or not DCC material, but it looks like they took the cuteness and attractiveness right out of her.

I take back everything I wrote yesterday about being pleased that the bottoms weren't so tiny this year. Apparently they were saving the micro bikini bottoms for today. I guess lots of people find those tiny bottoms sexy. To me it just looks like they're wearing a child's size and it's distracting. And I third the opinion that the horizontal cut across the torso cuts the women in half and makes those who are less curvy look downright rectangular.

It's just like with the cut of their shorts. There is a lot of middle ground between granny cut and ultra low rise. Please find it.

To be honest I think it's nice to see how many smaller breasted women they have...IMO it's better than the over-inflated balloons on the chest look.

I don't feel qualified to judge the appearance of any of these gals because I haven't worn a bikini since I saw six. And if I did, it would be like Godzilla invading Tokyo. People running and screaming in all directions.

That said, I do feel qualified to judge the swimsuits themselves. The teeny tiny size of the bikini bottoms combined with the horizontal cut is just not flattering. Frankly, I didn't really "love" any of them.

As one of Yuko's few fans (perhaps the only one), I feel they really cheated her with that suit. She has a thin frame and that choice was wrong for her, just like Tasha's one-piece suit was wrong for her. 

And can they just let them pose without hitching a thumb into whatever string/fabric/beads are on the sides? They seem to think this is sexy but it just looks stupid to me.

Holly does seem more mature than her age, but I think a lot of it is her hair. I've watched again her auditions/pre-makeover episodes, when she still had her brown and slightly longer hair... She looked 18 but in a cute way! For me that hair color, combined with the short hair makes her look way older but not in a good way. She's sexy and beautiful either way, but for me the reasons why she doesn't photograph well during games are 1. the hair that make her neck somehow appear shorter 2. the faces she makes. Bring back her natural hair color and let her grow her hair a bit please!

I'm not sure if it's the DCC's fault.... I mean she's totally fit and compared to her I look like a whale (or maybe a whole family of whales combined), but it doesn't seem attractive to me. And she already looks older than she is, but that haircolor + the tan + thinness make her look way older.

I am in the minority, but I like Holly's hair cut and style. to me, it is nice to see a girl without the same cookie style hair (long, over processed, wrong type cut the majority of the girls have.) I would like to see a different hair color on her, but I think she is cute and adorable. A little variety is nice.

I do remember Kelli saying too thin can age a girl. Has she taken a look at some of the girls including Kelli because some of them look a little too thin. I know they need to look and be fit to be in the uniform, but some girls do not look healthy. I know they preach healthy and safe eating and exercise habits, but they do seem to rake the girls over the coal if they *God forbid* they gain a pound or two.

In that shot with Allia, Tess, and Heather H, I LOVE the suit that Tess is wearing.  It's gorgeous.  I'd buy it in half a heartbeat.  Now, if I just had the BODY to put it on. . . alas.  However, I noticed with Heather H, her shoulders seem to be naturally "up", almost likes she's constantly shrugging.  In addition, she seems to be pushing her head forward and tilting her chin down.  If she stood straight, relaxed her shoulders, pushed her head back and didn't tuck her chin in so much, then we could see her better.  Right now, it looks like she's trying to play peekaboo with us or she's trying to hide behind her hair.

waving the flag for Team Kelsey with you - she is darling, and I loved her interviews - she always seemed to have a gracious, upbeat attitude, and you can see she has a great sense of humor.  Beyond that, she is insanely gorgeous and she seems to be working really hard so I hope it pays off for her and she ends out being a five-year girl (if that's what she wants).  I'm also really hoping Cersten comes back, and I loved Maggie and the Heathers.  Actually I can't think of any girl I don't hope makes the team again - I'm hoping whoever it was that had the attitude early on checked it hard and fast, and had a great rest of the year along with the rest of the team, and they all get to cheer together with the new rookie class.
