I need help filling out this request. Custom Trainers / Scratch isn't something I ever handled before.

I'm trying to be true to her OW sprite and manga appearance... but it seems she lacks a few shades, also I don't like how I did her eyes. I also planned for a shoe to visible through the bottom of the dress.
160 x 160 works in PKMN Essentials.
Edit:
I really need a fix to this sprite, something I could learn from as well.
Could you please fix the sprite above this sentence.
It's a nice first as a starting point.
Pose looks just right, although her feet may need to go a bit to the right: right now it looks like she could fall backwards anytime.
As for the shading: maybe it improves when you increase the contrast of the colours? I don't know how to properly shade the dress though...
As for her eyes: she looks angry! Maybe less pixels and lighter colours? Just a suggestion though, making the impression right is really hard when being restricted to this resolution...
As for the overworld sprite: this is the one from black/white and will therefore not fit in the LG/FR essentials...
I had a go myself at the original clothing version, closely following every step of
a tutorial made by the bearded carrot. I did only Anthea so far. Also, I don't know what the right size was again for in essentials (this is 80 high), and she is looking the wrong way at the moment (which can be fixed easily):
