Generate a 9:16 vertical, realistic photo of a "Victorian Gothic Royal" portrait: Use the uploaded FACE_REF as the character identity reference, 100% restoring the facial features and bone structure; the person is wearing heavy-duty court attire in the style of the "Victorian Era (19th Century) Court Gown" (corset, large crinoline, lace/velvet, royal jewelry), photographed next to the Tower Bridge or the Palace of Westminster (Big Ben) in London. The image should have photography, styling, and cover design quality comparable to 'Harper’s Bazaar', maintaining the magazine's consistent design style (Chinese and English design).

【INPUTS | Input】
FACE_REF: Uploaded facial feature reference image (identity lock)

【ABSOLUTE PRIORITY | Identity Lock (Highest Priority)】
100% restoration of FACE_REF's facial features and bone structure: Eye distance, nose bridge and wings, lip shape, jawline, and cheekbone structure must be completely consistent, with no deviation.
Realistic skin texture: Visible subtle textures and pores; avoid excessive smoothing or 'influencer' filters.
Adult female image (adult).

【SHOT TYPE | Two View Options (Model randomly selects one, must be realistic and consistent)】
A) Half-body cover: From the chest to above the waist, with jewelry, lace neckline, and eyes being the clearest (Primary recommendation)
B) Full-body cover: Complete presentation from head to toe, showing the full silhouette of the huge crinoline combined with the London landmark, strong perspective (Alternative)
(Regardless of A/B: Must maintain a "cover composition," with white space reserved for typography, but without torn paper/hand-drawn effects.)

【LOCATION | Scene (London, UK)】
London Landmark: By the River Thames, with the magnificent Gothic architecture of the Palace of Westminster (Big Ben) or the Tower of London Bridge in the background.
Weather option (random): 1) London Fog (classic foggy texture, soft and mysterious light) 2) Just after rain (wet ground reflection, lead-gray sky)
Clean background: No tourists, no modern signs, no mobile phone status bar UI, no watermarks or subtitles.

【LIGHTING & CAMERA | Photographic Quality (Magazine Grade)】
Lens feel: 85mm portrait quality (half-body) or 50mm/70mm (full-body), shallow depth of field, eyes are the sharpest.
Lighting: Overcast diffused light + dramatic fill light (emphasizing facial structure); diamonds/gems must have realistic fire; velvet texture must be deep.
Color: High-end cinematic feel, low-saturation blue-gray environment combined with the dark tones of the clothing (red/blue/black) to form a Gothic aesthetic; overall clean, transparent, and luxurious.

【WARDROBE | Victorian Court Gown (Heavy-duty, Sculpting, Intricate Details)】
Target aesthetic: "Wasp waist, large skirt, layered lace, heavy velvet, crown, queenly aura."

Silhouette and Layers (X-shaped tailoring)
Upper body: Highly structured corset, square or high neckline, puff sleeves or leg-of-mutton sleeves
Lower body: Huge crinoline or bustle, with noticeable stacking design at the back waist, skirt trailing on the ground
Decoration: Abundant ruffles, bows, dangling tassels
Fabric and Craftsmanship (Heavy craftsmanship must be "visible")
Main fabric: Heavy velvet, taffeta, Chantilly Lace
Main techniques: Beading, gold thread embroidery, ribbon weaving
Pattern themes: Damask, roses, thistle (symbol of Scotland), paisley pattern
Details: Lace gloves, neck ornament (Choker), medal/brooch
Headwear (Royal Jewelry Headpiece)
Core structure: Victorian small crown (Tiara) or feather headpiece
Decoration: Diamonds, sapphires, pearls
Earrings/Necklace: Extremely exaggerated diamond necklace, drop earrings

【COLOR MATRIX | Color Matrix Pairing (Must be executed, and must be "Royal Dark Colors")】
(Deep luxury of the late Victorian era)
Randomly select 1 set from the following three "Main Color Schemes" for the [Base Color/Large Area Main Fabric Color].

Scheme G (Royal Blue Base):
Base Color: Deep sapphire blue/midnight blue (velvet texture)
Embroidery/Decoration: Silver lace, diamonds, sapphires

Scheme R (Mourning Black Base):

【Color Execution Rules】

Full-body: Standing tall (like a portrait painting), hands clasped on the crinoline, overwhelming presence
Expression: Serious, arrogant, imperious; absolutely no smiling (Victorian style).

Theme:
High-fashion urban night luxe editorial.

Subject:
A 20-year-old Mediterranean-Caucasian fashion model. She is captured in a dynamic walking turn on a historic European cobblestone street, looking back over her shoulder toward the camera.

Person · Expression:
Symmetrical facial structure with a defined jawline and high cheekbones. Piercing hazel eyes with a focused, steady gaze. Full lips with a high-shine clear finish. Voluminous espresso-colored hair with honey-blonde highlights, whipping across her shoulders in motion. The skin features realistic micro-texture, visible pores, and a dewy, luminous finish under the city lights.

Clothing · Pose:
A midnight charcoal long-sleeved mock-neck top in a fine-gauge ribbed silk-knit, featuring a close, form-fitting silhouette. High-waisted, light-wash vintage denim jeans with a high-rise fit that defines the waist and follows the curve of the hips and legs. Polished black leather stiletto ankle boots. She is positioned mid-stride with her torso rotated back 90 degrees and one hand gracefully touching the back of her neck.

Background · Light:
A rain-slicked cobblestone alleyway at blue hour. The atmosphere is misty and reflective. Dual-source cinematic lighting: warm amber light spills from a boutique window to illuminate her face and chest, while a cool cyan streetlight provides a sharp rim light along her back, hair, and profile.

Composition · Camera:
Full-body medium shot from a slight low-angle perspective. The subject is framed dynamically to emphasize the S-curve of her pose. Razor-sharp focus on the facial features and fabric textures, with a soft, creamy bokeh blurring the background shop lights and architectural details.

Texture · Style:
Hyper-photorealistic editorial style. High-contrast chiaroscuro with deep, filmic shadows. Detailed rendering of ribbed silk, heavy denim grain, and polished leather. Subtle organic film grain and specular highlights on the wet street surfaces.

  "master_prompt": "A hyper-realistic surreal editorial photograph shot on Hasselblad H6D-100c, 80mm f/1.4 lens. The camera focuses exclusively on a fractured, viscous metallic puddle on the dark floor. Reflected sharply within this cracked surface is The Protagonist, sitting atop a massive, physically rigged origami airplane crafted from brushed aluminum. Dense, cryogenic studio fog mimics a sea of clouds below the structure. The actual subject in the background is heavily blurred by the shallow depth of field. The reflected Protagonist exhibits a cyber-ethereal synthetic beauty: impossibly symmetrical features, a piercing non-human gaze, and 'plasticized' skin that still reveals authentic micro-pores upon close inspection. The dark, minimalist brutalist chamber is illuminated by stark cyan and sharp white fluorescent rim lighting, catching the edges of the fog and the metal plane. Shot on Kodak Portra 800, heavy film grain, entirely practical high-budget effects, NO NEON, cinematic chiaroscuro.",

Profile / Avatar - Girl Looking at Shoe on Country Road

川越あい(ラブりんって呼んでෆ)Nano Banana Pro
[Overall Theme] A daily snapshot of a smiling girl looking at her own shoes on a country road at dusk.

[Subject - Face/Clothing] Refer to attached images for face and clothing.

[Subject - Expression]
A gentle and bright smile with closed lips, looking towards the raised foot.

[Action]
Weight is supported only by the left foot on the gravel road; the right leg is lifted forward and bent at the knee, with the right hand reaching down to grab the heel of the right shoe. The torso is tilted forward and to the right.

[Subject - Pose]
The left foot is flat on the gravel ground, supporting the entire body's weight. The right leg is raised forward with the knee bent so the sole is visible. The right hand holds the edge of the right shoe's heel. The left arm hangs naturally by the side. The upper body tilts forward and twists slightly toward the raised foot. The head is lowered, looking at the shoe. The entire pose balances on just one point of contact with the ground (the left foot).

[Composition/Shooting]
Full-body shot at eye level, subject centered. The gravel road continues into the distance, flanked by lush rice paddies under a pale sky.

[Light/Atmosphere]
Soft, diffused sunlight from the side casts soft shadows and golden hour glow on the rural landscape.
