I wonder if a different color would allow you to isolate it in the B/W conversion and let you keep more of the detail and depth. I have no experience with that, I'm just thinking out loud...

Monitor might need an adjustment but grey was what i ended up with after I edited it. Was black beforehand, and I mean very black! I desaturated it after lightening it & shifting the contrast as is looked better than the skin tone. Probably a case in point to the thread about people cheating by desaturating!! Was a 1st attempt and it went a tad wrong so I thought I would share so people can help out a bit. Thanks for your comment, 'tis appreciated.
And yes, she was wearing a black poloneck
