I don't mind the drapery. It echoes the curve of her back and works well as part of the composition. The obvious fold in the backdrop and the shadows beneath her nose and her chin and the doubled line of the back of her neck are unfortunate however. Why not spend some time on this and clean those things up? This is much too good to leave as is.
Thanks for your comments Don. That “fold in the backdrop” is actually the corner of the room. I had little room to work with.
Nicely done. It's a matter of taste certainly, but you might think about some blur on the background texture so there isn't more detail there than on your lovely model.

Nice effort! Low key, relaxed, no distractions, well posed and a beautiful model. No suggestions for improvement, even, other than to see the color version.
