Identity: the face, skin, body and hair are the subject's own and never change. Where a hairstyle is described below, style the subject's own hair into it; never change the hair's colour, length or texture. Apply only the outfit, makeup, hairstyling, pose and setting described below.
Create an editorial fashion portrait.
Subject: the subject with the subject's own hair slicked back flat against the head,
bare natural makeup applied to the subject's own face and a small silver ear cuff. The subject wears a fitted
black leather corset-style top with visible seam panels and thin shoulder straps, a
low open back, and a black satin skirt flaring below the hip. A slim black velvet
choker with a small metal ring sits at the subject's throat.
Action: standing with the subject's back to the camera, torso twisted so the subject looks back over the subject's
right shoulder directly into the lens. The subject's right arm is bent upward with the subject's hand
resting lightly high on the chest, fingers loosely curled, the subject's left arm hanging
relaxed at the side. Chin slightly lowered, cool unsmiling gaze.
Setting: a dim opulent interior — a large gilt-framed mirror behind the subject, crystal
chandeliers glowing warm in the background, dark walls, pale marble floor, everything
softly out of focus.
Visual style: photoreal moody editorial photography, deep blacks, warm amber highlights,
fine grain.
Composition: vertical, cropped from mid-thigh up, subject centred and filling the frame
height, the subject's back and shoulder line the focal point.
Lighting: soft directional key from the front-right catching the subject's face, shoulder and the
leather, low fill, deep falloff into shadow behind.
Text inside: none.
Constraints: never turn the subject's body to face the camera, never lower the raised hand, never
brighten the background to an even light, never crop the shoulder line, never add extra
jewellery, never change the subject's face, skin or body, and never change the colour, length or texture of the subject's hair — style it only as described.
