# Style descriptors only. This prompt names no artist, studio, brand or work.

Produce four original images in the visual language of Power Dressing, a style from Fashion History, 1970s–1980s.

## What to make

Make the kind of thing this style exists for: giving a character professional authority and decisiveness at a glance, or showing the 1980s through the shoulder line and silhouette. Choose one subject and hold it across all four images.

## What has to be visible

- Padded jackets widening the shoulders
- A fitted waist and inverted-triangle silhouette
- Dark worsted cloth and pinstripes
- Coordinated suit, shirt, tie or pumps

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: Keep both shoulders in frame and stress the inverted triangle from a frontal or low view
- Type and lettering: Use a strong condensed face and align it with the horizontal of the shoulders
- Material and surface: Dark worsted cloth, pinstripes and firm interfacing, with small controlled jewelry
- Colour: #D8D4CA carries the ground, #8B1E2D is the colour the style is remembered by, #1D2430 holds text and outlines. Read off real works, so treat them as a direction rather than a fixed palette.
- What it should feel like: trust, luxury, exhilaration

## What goes wrong

Exaggerated shoulders alone become costume. Address both the authority the suit grants and the conformity it demands.

## 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.
