I'm afraid she's really letting herself go. Alas, these days, she looks more like this:
I don't know how much of the original live broadcast of her round one performances is captured on her saved file at the medici tv site, but she was doing jumping jacks before she entered the stage. Apparently, she's not doing enough of them - not a good transformation! ;-)

The only real difference between those two photos is due to a professional photographer, a hair and makeup artist, and maybe even a fashion consultant, all no doubt hired by her management company looking to produce a glamorous stock photo.
Can you really tell which photo came first, yours or mine?
Glamor is ephemeral and superficial, my friend, and the viewer is easily fooled, especially by carefully posed still photos, perhaps even wants to be fooled.
Julia has a cute cherubic face and nice smile, but looking at a selection of her photos on the net, it seems she isn't interested in looking glamorous for your benefit, with a rare exception that was probably arranged by her management. Good for her, seems she's more of a babe than most of the ersatz babes you tout here.
. . . what you wrote is well said, but I WANT babe musicians to look glamorous for my benefit. If Marina can do it, Julia can do it too! ;-)
BTW, Madeline and I reviewed parts of the first round recitals by all the finalists tonight, and she agrees with me that there's something fishy about Julia's pass into the finals.
but life wouldn't be nearly what it is if we all agreed on exactly what makes a babe a babe.
I quote from one of the greatest classics:
There is nothing like a dame,
Nothing in the world.
There is nothing you can name
That is anything like a dame.
This is the first Dame that came to mind...
Mo' better at least by a little..
Pictures sometimes do tell the true story, I guess.
Here's the way Marina Yakhlakova looked a couple of years ago (those eyes!):
And here's the way she looked (more or less) at the Tchaikovsky Competition:
A little more severe, but just as babeliocious - Too bad she didn't play better!
