I don't really see the relationship between those thumbnails but your correct choice here is an ordered list, not a table. The thumbnail in the bottom right corner doesn't have any direct relationship with the thumbnail in the top right corner (which it would if it were tabular data), it only has a relationship with what comes before and what comes after, i.e. in the 'ordering' of the photos.
Does it even have that relationship? Does it matter to anybody other than some twonk from merchandising whether the blue sweater comes before the red dress? If a list is to be used (and I don't disagree with the use of a list in this case) then it seems to me that an unordered list should be sufficient - unless the aforementioned twonk insists that it's *really* important that yellow clothes come before green ones.
Although it might be important from an accessibility perspective that an unsighted user be able to say "the third one on that page" without having to count the preceding list items - hmm, now that's something to think about..
