So, this is the product of one of those 'planets align and allow me to draw' moments. -_-
I didn't do much planning with this, so I was wanting some critiques before I digitally color it.

The structure of the figure is skewed. The legs especially.

Even if you're going to be drawing a dress overtop, it's always in your best interests to draw the legs properly and then draw the dress. It not only helps with proportions, but helps to define the folds and direction that the cloth will have.

how is skewed, and do you suggest to fix it? ((and I did do the whole body first, lol.))

The leg that folded- if you look at it, the leg scoops down and then back up at the kneecap. real legs don't do that. The legs are also slightly out of proportion when compared to the rest of the body. Anatomy references might help you out.

If you want to make the face a bit more feminine, try shrinking the forehead a bit. I feel like that's the main non-female-ish thing, but she's still clearly a female, to me at least.

And, if you did draw out the entire body, you must have a fantastic eraser, because I cant see any of the lines for the legs under the skirt. I can, however see eraser lines in other places...

I feel like I sound really bitchy, but I'm too tired to retype it nicer. Please forgive me.

thats alright. I'll see what I can do.
((and I drew the body on another peice of paper, then used my light table to draw the cloths and other details on top. The magic of light tables XD))
