Good concept, but I'm used to seeing polka dots as an even pattern throughout rather than placed in lines and circles. DOF is a bit too shallow. Good tones, and good use of the border.
Your composition is interesting, but I think that the right exposure on the hat messed up with your high key option. I would also prefer more contrast on the dots colors.
