# Exact Traditional Turkish / Ottoman-Inspired Cultural Portrait Prompt — Dress Locked — 3:4 Vertical

Create a premium, ultra-photorealistic full-body cultural fashion portrait of one adult woman walking directly toward the camera through a historic stone street.

IMPORTANT:
The original reference image will NOT be supplied during generation.

Therefore, every visual detail below must be treated as a FIXED recreation specification.

The DRESS, HEADPIECE, BELT, JEWELRY, COLOR PALETTE, SILHOUETTE, POSE, BACKGROUND STYLE, CAMERA FRAMING, and LIGHTING must remain consistent every time this prompt is used.

DO NOT redesign or simplify the outfit.
DO NOT replace it with a generic Ottoman, Turkish, Persian, Central Asian, medieval, fantasy, or bridal costume.

Use a strict 3:4 vertical portrait composition.

==================================================
MANDATORY IDENTITY WORKFLOW
==================================================

If the final image is intended to use a specific person's identity, first require ONE clear photograph of that person with the face clearly visible.

If no suitable identity photo has been supplied, STOP and ask only:

“Please upload one clear photo of yourself with your face clearly visible.”

Do NOT ask the user to upload the original reference image.

The original recreation reference is NOT required because the complete scene and costume specification is written below.

Once the user's identity photo is supplied, use it ONLY for:

- exact facial identity
- facial structure and proportions
- eyes
- eyebrows
- nose
- lips
- cheeks
- jawline and chin
- natural skin tone
- age appearance
- natural facial characteristics

DO NOT copy from the user's photo:

- clothing
- headwear
- jewelry
- hairstyle arrangement
- body pose
- body orientation
- background
- environment
- camera angle
- framing
- accessories

Those must follow this prompt exactly.

HIGHEST PRIORITY:
The generated woman must look like ONE naturally photographed human being.

Her face must NEVER look pasted, swapped, attached, composited, or placed onto another person's body.

Match facial perspective, head size, neck anatomy, ears, hairline, skin texture, skin color, lighting direction, shadows, sharpness, depth of field, and overall photographic grain perfectly with the body.

==================================================
SUBJECT & POSE
==================================================

Show ONE adult woman walking confidently toward the camera.

She is centered almost perfectly in the frame.

Her torso faces straight forward.

Her head remains upright and straight.

She looks directly into the camera with a calm, dignified, confident expression.

No exaggerated smile.

Use a poised, regal facial expression with slightly relaxed eyes and naturally closed lips.

Capture her naturally during a walking step:

- one leg slightly forward
- the other leg slightly behind
- both arms hanging naturally beside the body
- right arm slightly forward due to walking motion
- left arm slightly behind
- hands relaxed
- shoulders level and elegant

Her body posture must be upright and regal rather than stiff.

Show her entire body from headpiece to shoes.

Leave a small amount of street visible below the feet.

==================================================
OUTFIT — ABSOLUTE LOCK
==================================================

The woman wears an elaborate FLOOR-LENGTH DEEP BURGUNDY / DARK WINE RED VELVET CEREMONIAL COAT-DRESS.

The outer garment is the dominant visual element and must closely follow this construction.

COLOR:

- extremely deep burgundy
- dark wine red
- subtle maroon undertones
- luxurious velvet surface
- no bright red
- no purple substitution
- no black replacement

The velvet must show realistic soft directional sheen depending on the light.

==================================================
OUTER COAT CONSTRUCTION
==================================================

The main garment is a fitted long ceremonial coat extending from shoulders nearly to the ankles.

It has:

- structured shoulders
- fitted upper torso
- naturally shaped waist
- long fitted sleeves
- moderately flared lower skirt
- open center-front construction below the waist
- long symmetrical front panels
- slightly rigid historical tailoring

The coat must NOT become a modern gown, abaya, kaftan, fantasy robe, or Western dress.

==================================================
COLLAR
==================================================

Use a high standing fitted collar.

The collar must be heavily decorated with dense metallic embroidery.

Colors:

- antique silver
- muted champagne gold
- tiny darker metallic details

The collar sits closely around the neck.

It should look handcrafted, luxurious, historically inspired and structured.

==================================================
FRONT CHEST EMBROIDERY
==================================================

The entire chest opening must feature highly detailed symmetrical embroidery.

Create two wide ornamental embroidered bands running vertically from the collar down the front torso.

Use:

- antique silver thread
- muted gold thread
- pale metallic beige detailing
- fine floral scrollwork
- geometric motifs
- tiny repeating borders
- dense traditional needlework

The embroidery must appear physically stitched into velvet rather than printed.

Create a narrow dark burgundy center opening between the embroidered borders.

Around the upper chest, include additional curved embroidered edging forming a decorative neckline framework.

==================================================
SHOULDER DETAIL
==================================================

At each shoulder, create slightly extended structured shoulder sections.

Edge them with a narrow pale metallic trim.

The shoulders should have a mild angular historical silhouette without exaggerated armor-like shapes.

==================================================
SLEEVES
==================================================

Use full-length fitted burgundy velvet sleeves.

Around the upper forearm / elbow region include a broad horizontal embroidered band.

This band contains:

- antique silver embroidery
- small geometric motifs
- repeating ornamental borders

From the elbow toward the wrist include narrow decorative linear embroidery following the sleeve vertically.

The cuffs should also contain fine metallic embroidered detailing.

==================================================
CENTRAL FRONT PANEL
==================================================

Below the belt, the coat opens vertically.

Both sides of the opening must have wide embroidered borders continuing nearly to the bottom hem.

These borders must remain symmetrical.

Use extremely dense floral and geometric embroidery similar to the chest work.

The borders should remain approximately the same width from waist to lower skirt.

==================================================
LOWER COAT MOTIFS
==================================================

Across the burgundy velvet skirt panels, include repeated pale metallic tribal/geometric symbols.

Use small vertical fork-like / Y-shaped motifs distributed symmetrically down both sides of the coat.

Do not make these random.

Maintain visually balanced rows.

Near the bottom of each coat panel add larger ornate embroidered medallion motifs.

These should appear approximately around shin level.

Each motif should contain:

- diamond-like geometry
- floral interior detailing
- antique silver stitching
- small surrounding ornamental flourishes

==================================================
BOTTOM HEM
==================================================

Create a wide embroidered border around the lower hem.

The hem border must contain:

- repeating geometric patterns
- metallic silver thread
- muted champagne accents
- small diamond or floral repetitions

The garment should end around the lower calves / ankles while revealing the footwear.

==================================================
INNER GARMENT
==================================================

Visible through the open center of the burgundy coat is a rich muted GOLD / ANTIQUE MUSTARD inner dress.

It must appear as one vertical panel from approximately the waist to the lower calves.

Color:

- antique gold
- muted ochre
- warm mustard
- slightly metallic woven silk appearance

The fabric should look substantially different from the velvet coat.

Use realistic silk or brocade texture.

The inner garment must NOT dominate the image.

==================================================
WAIST BELT — VERY IMPORTANT
==================================================

Place a very wide ornate GOLDEN METAL BELT around the natural waist.

This belt must remain a major focal detail.

The belt consists of multiple connected rectangular gold plaques.

Each plaque has:

- raised embossed ornamentation
- small circular decorative studs
- aged antique gold finish
- dimensional handcrafted metalwork

At the exact center, use a larger polygonal / shield-shaped buckle.

The center buckle contains:

- rich antique gold metal
- raised decorative relief
- a rectangular or oval GREEN GEMSTONE positioned in the center
- smaller decorative metal details surrounding it

The belt should look heavy, rigid and historical.

Do not replace it with a fabric sash or thin belt.

==================================================
BELT PENDANTS / TASSELS
==================================================

Below the belt, hang several decorative textile and metal ornaments.

Include symmetrical small hanging pieces such as:

- cream-beige tassels
- burgundy cords
- narrow ornamental pendants
- tiny metallic elements

These should hang naturally around the center waist and side waist areas.

Keep them elegant and historically styled rather than excessive.

==================================================
HEADWEAR — ABSOLUTE LOCK
==================================================

The woman wears a tall structured BURGUNDY CEREMONIAL HEADPIECE.

The headpiece is cylindrical-to-slightly-tapered and closely fitted around the crown.

It must use the same deep burgundy velvet color as the outer coat.

Cover the headpiece with many horizontal rows of tiny metallic beads or embroidered trim.

The surface contains repeated fine:

- antique silver lines
- pale metallic bead rows
- tiny geometric decorative patterns

==================================================
CENTRAL HEADPIECE JEWEL
==================================================

At the center front of the headpiece place a vertical decorative jewelry ornament.

Use:

- a small silver ornamental mounting
- one vivid turquoise-blue oval/teardrop gemstone near the center
- tiny metallic details around it

This turquoise jewel must remain clearly visible.

==================================================
HEAD VEIL
==================================================

From the headpiece, attach a long dark burgundy veil.

The veil falls backward behind the woman's head and shoulders.

It should extend approximately toward the mid-back.

The veil is NOT transparent bridal tulle.

Instead, it should appear as a rich dark burgundy woven textile / velvet-like fabric.

Keep it relatively straight and controlled.

==================================================
FOREHEAD DETAIL
==================================================

At the lower edge of the headpiece, include tiny delicate metallic bead ornaments hanging lightly near the upper forehead and temples.

Do not cover the face.

The center of the forehead remains clearly visible.

==================================================
HAIR
==================================================

Most of the hair should remain concealed beneath the historical headwear.

Only minimal natural dark hair may be visible around the temples if anatomically necessary.

Do not introduce modern loose hairstyles, curls, ponytails or exposed long hair.

==================================================
EARRINGS
==================================================

Use large ornate dangling historical earrings.

Each earring should contain:

- antique gold / muted metallic structure
- multiple tiny decorative segments
- elongated dangling elements
- subtle bead or stone accents

They should reach approximately to the lower jaw / upper neck area.

Keep them symmetrical.

==================================================
MAKEUP
==================================================

Keep the face sophisticated but realistic.

Use:

- naturally defined eyebrows
- subtle warm eye makeup
- lightly defined eyeliner
- realistic skin texture
- restrained cheek color
- deep burgundy / wine-red lipstick

The lipstick should harmonize with the dress.

No glossy modern beauty makeup.

No excessive contouring.

==================================================
FOOTWEAR
==================================================

Use historical-style ankle boots visible below the gown.

Boots:

- muted warm brown / bronze leather
- fitted ankle and lower shin
- narrow historical silhouette
- embroidered or embossed decorative patterns
- slightly pointed toe
- low traditional heel

The visible front shaft should contain burgundy/gold ornamental decoration.

Do not use modern heels, sneakers, sandals or contemporary boots.

==================================================
BACKGROUND — LOCKED HISTORIC STREET
==================================================

Place the woman walking through a narrow historic old-city stone street.

The scene must feel like an authentic preserved historical district rather than a studio set.

Directly behind and above the woman is a LARGE OLD STONE ARCHWAY.

The arch occupies much of the upper-left and upper-center background.

Use:

- weathered beige-gray stone blocks
- visible masonry joints
- slightly worn stone edges
- authentic historic architecture

A thick stone pillar should appear along the left side.

==================================================
LEFT BACKGROUND
==================================================

On the far left beneath the arch, include a dark hanging traditional textile or rug.

The textile should contain:

- dark burgundy
- muted black
- burnt red
- subtle geometric patterns

Keep it partially blurred because of shallow depth of field.

Behind and to the left of the main subject, show approximately two or three background pedestrians wearing historical-inspired clothing.

One female figure may wear:

- muted teal / dusty green dress
- brown or patterned long vest
- understated head covering or historical hairstyle

These people are secondary.

Their faces must NOT compete with the main subject.

==================================================
RIGHT BACKGROUND
==================================================

On the right edge, include another partially visible woman in a long muted brown historical dress.

Only part of her body should enter the frame.

She must remain strongly defocused.

Farther behind the main woman, add a few blurred pedestrians in darker clothing.

==================================================
STREET
==================================================

The street surface is composed of large rectangular gray stone paving slabs.

Show realistic:

- seams
- subtle wear
- uneven coloration
- soft natural reflections
- historic pedestrian-street texture

The street should extend toward the background and create natural perspective depth.

==================================================
DISTANT CITY BACKGROUND
==================================================

Beyond the stone arch, show a narrow continuation of the historic street with tall old buildings.

Use warm gray, beige and muted reddish facades.

Include only small subtle signs and storefront lighting.

Far-right background can contain several warm circular bokeh lights:

- warm yellow
- amber
- soft orange
- one tiny red light

Keep all modern details heavily blurred and visually unobtrusive.

==================================================
COMPOSITION
==================================================

The woman must remain the dominant centered subject.

Frame from slightly above the top of the headpiece down to below the feet.

Use:

- full-body composition
- subject occupying approximately 80–88% of image height
- small headroom
- feet fully visible
- natural walking space beneath feet
- strong symmetrical subject placement

The stone arch should naturally frame her head and upper body.

==================================================
CAMERA
==================================================

Create the look of professional full-frame DSLR / mirrorless fashion photography.

Suggested setup:

- approximately 70–85mm full-frame lens
- camera positioned around chest-to-waist height
- almost perfectly level camera
- very slight upward visual perspective caused by full-body framing
- moderate shooting distance
- vertical 3:4 framing
- no wide-angle distortion
- no fisheye
- no exaggerated perspective

Focus precisely on the woman's face and upper torso.

==================================================
DEPTH OF FIELD
==================================================

Use a moderately shallow depth of field.

The woman must remain highly detailed from headpiece through most of the dress.

Background pedestrians and distant street elements should gradually blur.

Create attractive natural optical bokeh.

Do NOT create artificial portrait-mode edge blur.

Keep the front surface of the outfit sufficiently sharp to show the embroidery.

==================================================
LIGHTING
==================================================

Use soft natural overcast daylight filtered through the narrow historic street.

Lighting direction:

- soft frontal illumination
- slightly stronger illumination from upper front-left
- very gentle shadows under chin and headpiece
- subtle highlights across metallic embroidery and belt

No harsh direct sunlight.

No dramatic studio spotlight.

No fantasy glow.

The velvet should retain deep shadows while the embroidery catches delicate metallic highlights.

Skin must remain naturally illuminated.

==================================================
COLOR GRADING
==================================================

Use an elegant cinematic but realistic color grade.

Dominant palette:

- deep burgundy
- antique gold
- muted silver
- turquoise accent
- beige-gray stone
- warm neutral skin
- subdued teal and brown background clothing

Use slightly warm skin tones while keeping architecture neutral.

Avoid orange/teal blockbuster grading.

==================================================
REALISM REQUIREMENTS
==================================================

The final image must resemble a genuine high-end cultural editorial photograph captured on location.

Include:

- visible natural skin pores
- tiny facial asymmetry
- realistic eyelids
- believable eyelashes
- natural hands and fingers
- physically accurate walking posture
- realistic velvet pile
- individual embroidery threads
- dimensional metallic belt
- physically correct jewelry
- real fabric folds
- natural garment weight
- accurate shadows where accessories contact fabric
- realistic street perspective
- optical depth of field

The dress must look handcrafted and physically wearable.

==================================================

- change the burgundy dress into another color
