Create a premium, photorealistic outdoor fashion editorial portrait using the provided reference image. Preserve the young adult woman’s identity: keep her facial structure, eyes, eyebrows, nose, and lips consistent with the reference. She has a natural, attractive supermodel appearance and natural body proportions. She looks back over her left shoulder toward the camera, her back turned three-quarters away; her expression is natural, and wind-blown hair partially covers her face and mouth.

She has very long, jet-black hair, straight to slightly wavy, extending to mid-back. Show natural volume, soft shine, individual strands, and flyaways in realistic wind-driven motion; it must not look like a wig or a salon blowout. Her makeup is minimal, with a clean, bare-skin look, natural brows and lashes, no or very light eyeshadow, no eyeliner or lipstick, and soft natural lips. Keep fresh, dewy skin with realistic micro-texture; avoid cakey makeup and contour.

She wears the same oversized, vibrant cherry-red chunky-knit sweater: long, loose sleeves covering her hands, a baggy silhouette, and visible soft wool and knit texture. Keep the outfit red and do not change it.

Frame a vertical 9:16 portrait from a low angle, looking upward from about 20–30 degrees below eye level. Place the subject in the lower third, toward the lower right or bottom center, with her head slightly tilted and her body turned away as she looks back. Capture a candid, dynamic moment with her hair flying to the side. Let a vast sky dominate the composition, with about 80% sky as negative space and the subject clearly separated from it.

Use a clear, bright blue sky with scattered soft white, wispy cumulus clouds. The setting is an open rooftop outdoors; only a tiny, out-of-focus top of a distant building or light pole may appear at the very bottom edge. Include no other people, trees, clutter, or messy background.

Use a full-frame DSLR or mirrorless camera with a 50mm lens, f/2.8, ISO 100, and a 1/500-second shutter speed. The camera is about 1.5–2 meters from the subject, with a slight upward tilt and natural perspective. Use medium-shallow depth of field, crisp focus on the sweater texture and hair edge, and keep the clouds clear while the background is slightly soft. Avoid lens distortion.

Create soft natural daylight with sunlight from the upper left, bright but not harsh, and soft diffused sky fill. Use natural skin highlights, gentle shadows, balanced exposure, subtle atmospheric haze, and airy depth. Apply a dreamy Instagram/VSCO-inspired aesthetic with clean pastel color harmony, a vibrant complementary contrast between the blue sky and red sweater, natural color grading, delicate highlights, balanced saturation, and a soft film-like tone. The overall result should feel like premium fashion photography, not a stylized illustration. Render ultra-photorealistic, detailed skin and fabric, realistic hair physics, correct anatomy, and natural body proportions in 8K.

Avoid CGI, cartoons, anime, illustration, 3D rendering, plastic or airbrushed skin, skin smoothing, facial alteration, warped or blurry faces, distorted anatomy, extra fingers, deformed hands, duplicate subjects, AI artifacts, fake-looking textures or hair, excessive blur, over-sharpening, oversaturation, dark moody filters, heavy makeup, freckles, birthmarks, messy backgrounds, clutter, watermarks, logos, or additional text. Preserve the reference identity, the red oversized sweater, the over-the-shoulder pose, the partially hair-covered face, and the blue sky with white clouds.
