Before You Generate
Note 1
Start with a sharp reference image. This prompt is written to preserve source identity, silhouette, or product structure before stylization.
Note 2
Use 1:1 on the first run, then test alternate crops after the base composition is working.
Note 3
Lock the environment before fine styling changes: { "style": "Photorealistic Hong Kong retro portrait", "era": "Authentic 1990s film look", "subject": {...
Best For
- Portrait studies, beauty concepts, and tightly framed editorial references.
- Reference-image workflows where identity, product shape, or silhouette should survive the restyle.
- Cinematic, mood-first outputs where light direction carries a lot of the final image quality.
Skip This Prompt If
- You need a wide environment shot or multiple subjects competing for attention in the same frame.
- You need to begin with a radically different crop than 1:1 instead of honoring the existing composition hints.
- Your reference image is low-resolution, badly lit, or cluttered enough to break subject preservation.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Ignoring the recommended 1:1 crop on the first run. The prompt's composition cues were written for that frame.
- Using a muddy reference image and expecting the prompt to repair identity, silhouette, or packaging structure on its own.
- Dropping the lighting or backdrop cues too early. Those clauses usually carry most of the mood and depth.

Push the restyle with a cleaner reference
