Use the uploaded character image as the sole reference for the person. If it depicts a real person, preserve their facial features, face shape, skin tone, hairstyle, and natural body proportions. If it depicts a chibi character or 3D figure, preserve its original character style and proportions. Integrate the character naturally into the Vietnamese countryside. Do not change their identity or excessively beautify them.
Dress the character in an elegant, pale sky-blue Vietnamese áo dài. Follow the áo dài’s traditional construction: a high standing collar; a fitted, long-sleeved top shaped to the shoulders and waist; high side slits beginning near the waist and creating two separate long panels; and loose, matching or pearl-white trousers with naturally draping legs. Make the panels from lightweight silk that falls naturally as the character bends. Use soft pale-blue silk with delicate white and pale-pink floral patterns on the chest, front panels, and hem, accented with fine silvery-white embroidery. Show realistic silk sheen and soft drape, conveying the áo dài’s slender, elongated, elegant form. Do not substitute Chinese hanfu, Korean hanbok, Japanese kimono, or a generic historical long dress. The standing collar, fitted long sleeves, side slits, and trousers must be clearly visible.
Give the character natural long black hair, with some hair elegantly pinned up and the rest falling over the shoulders and back. Add a delicate pale-blue flower hair ornament, small beads, and understated traditional-style earrings. A traditional Vietnamese woven bamboo conical hat is slung diagonally across the character’s back. Show its natural conical shape and finely interlaced bamboo texture. The hat must rest at a plausible angle against the back; it must not float, deform, or pass through the body.
Show the character bending slightly forward to admire ripe golden rice. One hand reaches forward and gently touches a full rice ear with the fingertips; the other rests naturally on the knee or beside the leg for balance. The head is slightly lowered, the gaze rests softly on the rice, and the character has a quiet smile. Keep the pose natural and graceful, clearly showing the áo dài’s elongated panels, side slits, and layered trousers.
Set the scene in the traditional terraced fields of Vietnam’s northern mountains, such as the countryside around Sa Pa. In the foreground, show mature golden rice with full, drooping ears and green leaves interspersed among the golden grains. Rice beside the character should be clearly visible, with realistic grains, slender leaves, and natural growth. In the middle distance, show terraced fields extending in layers, winding footpaths, green hillsides, and traditional Vietnamese rural houses scattered across the valley. In the distance, include a continuous mountain range that gradually fades to soft gray-blue with atmospheric perspective. The landscape should feel characteristic of northern Vietnam’s mountainous countryside.
Place the sun near the distant mountains in the upper-left of the image, creating warm golden backlight. Let the sunset light pass through the rice leaves and the character’s hair, outlining them with delicate golden rim light. The pale-blue áo dài should contrast softly with the warm sunlight, and its silk panels should have a subtle translucent glow. Illuminate the rice with rich golden tones and add a faint veil of warm mist in the distant valley. The mood is warm, tranquil, and romantic, with the pastoral poetry of rural Vietnam.
Use a vertical 9:16 composition and a natural portrait-photography perspective. Place the character slightly right of center, leaning forward, with the head, full áo dài panels, trousers, and conical hat visible. Leave room on the left for the arm reaching toward the rice and a broad expanse of golden fields; show the clothing silhouette and layered valley on the right. Let foreground rice extend naturally toward the camera. Keep the character sharp in the middle distance, with the far mountains and village softly blurred. Maintain natural proportions between the character and landscape, and show the garment construction clearly. Do not render the áo dài as a single unslit long skirt.

Create a cinematic portrait celebrating Vietnamese traditional culture and rural scenery: the character wears a pale-blue silk áo dài and a traditional woven bamboo conical hat, bending to gently touch mature golden rice. Clearly show the fitted long-sleeved top, side slits, trousers, and panels falling naturally with the movement. Sunset spills through a Vietnamese mountain valley, lighting the character’s hair, áo dài embroidery, and golden rice fields. Terraced fields extend into the distance, with a traditional village faintly visible. When a new character image is provided, change only the character’s appearance; keep the áo dài, bamboo conical hat, pose, terraced-field setting, and golden sunset fixed.
