Prompt

{
  "prompt": "A dramatic and ethereal portrait of a woman in a {argument name="dress color" default="deep red"} lace dress, holding two halves of a vibrant, ripe pomegranate. The woman has striking, highly contrasted makeup: bold red graphic blush extending from the temples and cheekbones, sharp red lipstick, and defined dark eyebrows. She has {argument name="eye color" default="bright blue"} eyes and dark hair pulled back into a sleek, low ponytail. The dress features a plunging V-neckline and voluminous, flared, sheer lace sleeves. She is accessorized with delicate gold jewelry, including small hoop earrings and a thin necklace. The background is soft and romantic, consisting of layers of sheer, textured, {argument name="background color" default="off-white or cream"} lace or tulle curtains, creating a soft-focus, dreamlike atmosphere. The lighting is rich, creating deep shadows and highlighting the textures of the lace and the sheen of the makeup and pomegranates. The overall aesthetic is evocative of a modern interpretation of a classical or mythological figure, possibly Persephone, with a focus on deep, passionate reds and ethereal whites. High-quality, professional photography, editorial style, dramatic lighting, detailed texture.",
