Replace the ${…} placeholders with your values
before using this prompt. See parameters
and defaults below.
## Reference photo — highest priority
Use the uploaded adult reference photo as the facial identity and hair-color reference. The finished portrait must remain instantly recognizable as the woman in the photo.
Preserve her facial structure, face shape, jawline, chin, cheekbones, nose, lips, eyes and eye spacing, dark brown eye color, eyebrows, natural skin texture and complexion, natural age, neck and head proportions, and recognizable expression. Preserve realistic pores. Do not beautify, alter facial proportions, change ethnicity, or substitute another face.
## Hair
Create an iconic early-1980s New Wave hairstyle: large teased layered hair, a high-volume crown, feathered layers, wispy face-framing strands, soft shag texture, and a slightly tousled finish with natural movement. Maintain the hairstyle silhouette.
## Makeup
Use authentic 1984 editorial makeup: dramatic black eyeliner, soft smoky eyes, defined lower liner, thick mascara, bright rosy blush extending toward the temples, warm bronze satin lipstick, and softly sculpted brows.
## Wardrobe
Faithfully recreate a black textured New Wave knit top with fringe, a wide bateau neckline sitting across both shoulders, and black feathered or fuzzy trim. Pair it with white satin high-waisted trousers, a gold beaded hip chain, chunky silver chain bracelets, black leather bracelets, one black fishnet fingerless glove, and oversized vintage dangling earrings. Keep the clothing non-revealing.
## Pose and composition
Recreate the album-cover composition: the woman lies comfortably on a plush cream rug or studio platform, resting naturally on her forearms with hands gently clasped. Her head is slightly lowered; she looks directly into the camera with a calm, confident expression. Use an editorial fashion pose.
## Lighting and style
Use warm studio lighting with soft shadows, warm color grading, a vintage film look, and slight analog grain. Create ultra-photorealistic luxury editorial fashion photography with an authentic early-1980s New Wave aesthetic, realistic skin pores, individual hair strands, cinematic depth of field, and subtle film texture. Aim for 8K quality.
Add the signature ${signature:Thegirl6132} in small, elegant white script in the lower-right corner.

Cartoon, CGI, anime, doll skin, beauty filter, altered face, incorrect hairstyle, modern makeup, modern clothing, revealing clothing, low-cut neckline, blurry eyes, extra jewelry, low resolution, oversaturated colors, watermark, logo, or text other than the specified signature; distorted anatomy.
