Create a photorealistic high-end editorial fashion portrait based on the visual composition and photographic style described below.

SUBJECT:
A single stylish adult person, gender-neutral and suitable for either a man or woman. The subject has naturally textured, voluminous slightly messy hair with visible individual strands, wearing oversized rectangular black sunglasses with dark lenses and a simple black crew-neck sweater or black minimalist top. Keep the styling understated, modern, mysterious and fashion-forward.

POSE & BODY LANGUAGE:
Three-quarter portrait from approximately the waist/chest upward. The body is turned slightly away from the camera while the head is subtly turned back toward the camera. The head is tilted slightly upward and toward one side, creating a relaxed, confident editorial expression. Shoulders naturally angled rather than perfectly straight. The pose should feel candid but intentionally composed, like a contemporary fashion magazine portrait.

FACIAL EXPRESSION:
Calm, confident, mysterious and slightly detached expression. Natural facial anatomy, realistic skin texture, subtle pores, natural lips and realistic facial proportions. Do not exaggerate facial features. Sunglasses partially conceal the eyes while maintaining the recognizable facial structure.

HAIR:
Natural voluminous textured hair with slightly messy curls/waves. Individual strands should be visible. Avoid overly perfect or digitally sculpted hair. Hair should have realistic density, flyaway strands and natural variation.

ACCESSORIES:
Large black rectangular sunglasses with realistic dark lenses and subtle reflections. Minimal small hoop earring if naturally appropriate to the subject. No other distracting accessories.

CLOTHING:
Minimalist solid black crew-neck sweater/top with realistic fabric texture. The clothing should absorb most of the light and remain deep black while retaining subtle folds and material detail. No logos, graphics, patterns, text or visible branding.

BACKGROUND:
A completely plain warm gray-beige concrete/plaster wall with subtle natural texture. No furniture, decorations, objects, plants, windows, artwork or environmental clutter.

LIGHTING:
Strong single hard light source positioned from the upper-left/front-left side of the subject, creating dramatic directional illumination across the face and upper body. Produce a clearly defined, large realistic cast shadow of the person's head, hair and shoulders on the wall behind them toward the right side.

The shadow is an essential visual element:
- clearly visible
- naturally shaped according to the person's pose
- slightly soft at the edges but still strongly defined
- realistic light falloff
- physically consistent with the subject's position
- no artificial halo

COLOR & MOOD:
Muted warm neutral color palette consisting primarily of charcoal black, warm gray, beige and subtle brown tones. Low saturation. Cinematic, mysterious, sophisticated and slightly nostalgic atmosphere.

PHOTOGRAPHY:
Professional editorial fashion photography, realistic DSLR/mirrorless camera rendering, approximately 50–85mm portrait lens perspective, natural perspective compression, shallow-to-moderate depth of field, subject sharply detailed while the background remains subtly softer.

COMPOSITION:
Vertical Instagram portrait composition in an exact 3:4 aspect ratio.

Place the subject slightly below and around the center of the frame, leaving generous negative space above the head and around the subject. Maintain the minimalist wall as a major part of the composition. The person should occupy approximately the central 55–65% of the image height.

FRAMING:
Head, shoulders and upper torso fully visible. Do not crop the top of the hair or the shoulders unnaturally. Maintain comfortable breathing room around the subject. The composition should feel like a premium fashion editorial photograph rather than a conventional selfie or headshot.

IMAGE QUALITY:
Ultra-photorealistic, extremely detailed natural skin texture, realistic hair strands, realistic fabric fibers, physically accurate shadows, realistic sunglasses reflections, subtle analog film grain, soft micro-contrast, natural lens characteristics, cinematic tonal range, professional color grading, high dynamic range without looking HDR.

STYLE:
Luxury minimalist fashion editorial, contemporary portrait photography, moody cinematic portrait, understated street-fashion aesthetic, analog-inspired photography, sophisticated magazine photography.

IMPORTANT:
The result must look like a real photograph captured with a professional camera, not AI artwork, digital painting or 3D rendering.

NEGATIVE PROMPT:
cartoon, anime, illustration, painting, CGI, 3D render, plastic skin, beauty filter, excessive skin smoothing, artificial face, deformed anatomy, distorted face, asymmetrical eyes, malformed hands, extra fingers, extra limbs, duplicate person, duplicate head, duplicate sunglasses, warped sunglasses, floating accessories, unrealistic hair, perfectly symmetrical hair, glossy plastic clothing, colorful clothing, logos, text, watermark, typography, objects in background, furniture, plants, busy background, studio backdrop, excessive bokeh, extreme HDR, oversaturated colors, neon colors, harsh digital sharpening, excessive contrast, fake shadow, multiple light sources, incorrect shadow direction, overexposed skin, crushed facial details, unnatural pose, extreme wide-angle distortion, fisheye effect, cropped hair, cropped head, cropped shoulders.

OUTPUT:
Exact 3:4 vertical Instagram post format.
Photorealistic editorial portrait.
No text or typography anywhere in the image.
No border or frame.
