Create a very dark, cinematic vertical 9:16 night portrait. A woman lies gracefully on her side inside the display window of a closed vintage confectionery shop, resting directly on the cool glass shelf among scattered sparkling sugar dust and a few unwrapped colorful candies. The shop is shut down for the night and completely dark, its interior barely visible in deep shadow.

She wears an extravagant avant-garde dress made entirely from dozens of oversized, glossy, translucent hard candies on white sticks. Swirl lollipops in bright cherry red, electric blue, sunny yellow, and vivid green are tightly clustered to form a sculptural bodice and short skirt. The candy dress catches the neon light in intense glossy reflections, appearing wet and glass-like. Her bare shoulders, arms, and legs are visible between the candy elements.

Her expression is serene and dreamy, with eyes gently closed and lips slightly parted; her head is tilted softly toward the glass. Style her hair in a sleek, wet-look updo that reveals her face and neck completely.

Outside the shop window, vibrant pink and cyan-blue street signage blazes brightly. Neon light spills through the glass, casting bold, saturated magenta and electric-blue gradients across her skin, the candy dress, and the glass shelf. The slightly reflective window shows faint, ghostly reflections of the dark street and neon glow.

Shoot from a very low angle, close to the glass, looking slightly upward at her. Position the camera just outside the window for an intimate, voyeuristic perspective. Include the edge of the window frame and subtle smudges on the glass in the foreground for realism.

Use only external neon for lighting: hot pink from the left and cool cyan from the right, with deep, crushed-black shadows inside the shop. Create a high-contrast cinematic color palette with rich neon saturation, glossy highlights on the candy and skin, visible skin texture, and slight digital noise for low-light authenticity. The mood is surreal, nocturnal, lonely, and decadently beautiful, like a forgotten dream in a candy store after midnight.

Avoid artificial studio lighting, a CGI look, deformed hands, extra fingers, distorted facial features, text, watermarks, plastic skin, cartoon or illustration styles, unnatural body proportions, and duplicate body parts.
