Modern Retro Academia — AI Image Prompt
Prompt
Ultra-realistic editorial studio portrait of a young woman sitting casually on the floor against a warm beige backdrop. She wears a crisp white collared shirt under a caramel knit vest with oversized buttons, paired with wide-leg olive-brown trousers and chunky black leather lace-up boots. Her long dark hair flows naturally in soft waves. The pose is relaxed and confident, with one leg extended forward to emphasize the boots. Soft even studio lighting highlights the textures of knitwear, cotton, and polished leather, creating a cinematic vintage-inspired mood.

Why This Prompt Works
The high word count gives the model rich context, reducing ambiguity and producing more consistent results. The cinematic and fashion aesthetic signals are specific enough that the model can lock onto a distinct visual language. Explicit lighting direction (a leading signal in prompt engineering) significantly improves photo-realism and composition. Well-crafted prompts like this one combine subject precision, style vocabulary, and rendering hints — the three pillars of reliable AI image generation.
Best Model
FLUX is strongly recommended for this prompt. FLUX 1.1 Pro excels at photorealism and handles complex lighting instructions more accurately than older models.
