Prompt template

Transform the provided photo into an expressive high-fashion editorial illustration while preserving the person’s identity, facial structure, hairstyle, and recognizable features. Reinterpret the portrait as a minimalist hand-drawn fashion sketch with elegant elongated proportions. Use bold black ink contour lines, loose confident brush strokes, slightly imperfect asymmetrical linework, simplified facial anatomy, stylized almond-shaped eyes, minimal nose details, and expressive graphic lips.

Apply flat marker coloring with a limited, sophisticated palette, abstract blush patches under the eyes, subtle colorful eye-makeup accents, and semi-abstract graphic shading. Render the hair as bold, expressive ink masses with visible white highlight gaps. Simplify the clothing into large geometric color blocks in an editorial fashion-illustration style. Use a clean white background, scanned marker-on-paper texture, and a modern Vogue-inspired editorial aesthetic.
