# New Romantic (ニュー・ロマンティック) — image generation prompt
# IndexStyle No.575 — https://indexstyle.org/styles/new-romantic
# Style descriptors only. This prompt names no artist, studio, brand or work.

Produce four original images in the visual language of New Romantic, a style from Subculture Style, 1979–1983.

## What to make

Make the kind of thing this style exists for: costume for live performance, stage or photography that remakes a performer as a historical fantasy, or creating a club's shared world through the dress code at its door. Choose one subject and hold it across all four images.

## What has to be visible

- Frilled shirts, sashes and quotations of military or pirate dress
- Whitened face, strong blush and asymmetric makeup
- Large head silhouette built from hats, feathers and jewelry
- Historic costume mixed with synthetics and futuristic shine

Someone who knows this style should be able to point at each of these in the finished image.

## How to build it

- Layout and structure: Center face and head, extending shoulders and sleeves sideways and hat or hair upward
- Type and lettering: Use a narrow serif or ornamental capital that points to one quoted period
- Material and surface: Mix velvet, satin, frill, feather and metallic shine; design the makeup at equal strength
- Colour: #F2E8DA carries the ground, #C13B72 is the colour the style is remembered by, #1D1730 holds text and outlines. Read off real works, so treat them as a direction rather than a fixed palette.
- What it should feel like: exhilaration, play, rebellion

## What goes wrong

Frills and heavy makeup alone become costume. Carry one historical character and its translation into the club present through the whole figure.

## Across the four

Keep every cue above present in all four. Vary the framing, the scale and the arrangement so the set shows the range this style covers rather than four versions of one picture.

## Constraints

- Do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work.
- Do not reproduce the composition of an existing work.
- Produce original compositions in the general period language described above.
