Create an ultra-realistic, professionally photographed luxury fashion editorial with a sophisticated cinematic atmosphere and romantic gothic aesthetic. Depict a young adult woman standing on an elegant staircase of a classical European building.

IDENTITY AND APPEARANCE

If a reference photo is provided, use it as the visual basis for the model and faithfully preserve her identity. Do not alter her face, facial features, face shape, eyes, nose, lips, natural skin tone, or body proportions.

The model has straight, glossy black hair with a neat fringe across her forehead and two long braids falling over her shoulders. Her makeup is soft and refined, with luminous natural skin, subtly defined eyes, and rosy nude lips. She wears small silver earrings and has a delicate, mysterious, elegant appearance.

GOTHIC COUTURE DRESS

She wears a striking black dress inspired by romantic gothic fashion, with a feminine silhouette, fitted waist, and voluminous skirt:
- A fitted black bodice with delicate front buttons.
- A classic black shirt collar with an elegant finish.
- A subtly sheer, sophisticated panel of black tulle at the upper neckline.
- Short sleeves with large black tulle ruffles forming dramatic, sculptural shoulders.
- Abundant layers of black tulle in the skirt, creating majestic volume with horizontal ruffles at varying levels.
- An elongated midi hem ending below the calves.
- A thin black belt with a silver metal buckle, gently defining the waist.
- Opaque black tights.
- Black patent-leather Mary Jane shoes with a strap across the instep and a chunky sole.

Render the tulle with realistic transparency, delicate texture, natural volume, and fine detail. Use the lighting to reveal the fabric's different layers.

ACCESSORIES AND DETAILS

The model wears a long silver necklace with an ornamental gothic pendant, coordinating with her small metal earrings. She delicately holds a small structured black handbag in front of her body. The bag has short silver metal chain handles and a large satin-finish black bow on the front.

Her hands rest naturally in front of the skirt as she holds the bag. Give the fingers realistic anatomy and correct proportions, with a relaxed pose.

POSE AND EXPRESSION

Photograph the model full-length, standing with elegant, natural posture. Her feet are close together, and her arms are relaxed in front of her body. Her head is turned slightly toward the right side of the image, and she gazes out of frame. Her expression is serene, contemplative, and mysterious, evoking a contemporary gothic-story character.

The composition should convey delicacy, aristocratic elegance, femininity, and mystery.

SETTING

Place the scene on the exterior staircase of a historic European building, with classical architecture in aged, pale stone. In the background, include stone steps, carved handrails, ornate balustrades, tall vertical windows, and an antique black iron lamp.

On the right side of the composition, include a lush tree with green leaves, creating a natural contrast with the black outfit. Give the vegetation and architecture realistic depth, natural textures, and refined detail. The stone paving has subtle signs of wear, a few scattered leaves, and natural variations in tone to reinforce the authenticity of the scene.

LIGHTING AND PHOTOGRAPHIC DIRECTION

Use soft natural light on a partly sunny day, filtered through the trees. Create delicate shadows on the staircase and subtle highlights on the hair, tulle, and patent shoes. Use a sophisticated palette dominated by deep black, stone gray, aged beige, and natural green. Keep contrast balanced, shadows soft, skin tones natural, and analog photographic texture subtle. Slightly blur the background while keeping architectural details recognizable.

CAMERA AND QUALITY

Make this a luxury fashion editorial photograph, full-length, with a vertical ${aspect-ratio:2:3} composition and a natural eye-level perspective. Use a 50 mm or 85 mm portrait lens, moderate depth of field, precise focus on the model, balanced composition, and a professional finish.

Render with ultra-realistic 8K detail: natural skin texture, individual hair strands, physically realistic fabrics, anatomically correct hands, natural cinematic lighting, rich detail, and the quality of an international alternative-fashion campaign.

FINAL RESULT

The final image should be a sophisticated romantic-gothic fashion photograph with contemporary Victorian inspiration, a dark-feminine aesthetic, aristocratic delicacy, and timeless elegance. It must look like a real photograph taken by a professional photographer, without an artificial or excessively retouched appearance.

Add a very small signature in the lower-left corner, in delicate, thin cursive lettering. Place “${signature-name-top:Érica}” above “${signature-name-bottom:Paulina}”, with an underline and a small bow beneath. Make the signature metallic glossy black.

NEGATIVE PROMPT: drawing, illustration, anime, doll-like appearance, plastic skin, distorted face, altered identity, asymmetrical eyes, deformed hands, extra fingers, duplicated limbs, incorrect anatomy, misshapen dress, artificial tulle, blurred textures, floating accessories, misshapen handbag, distorted shoes, excessive saturation, exaggerated artificial lighting, blurred face, low resolution, CGI appearance, watermarks, and overlaid text.
