9:16 vertical. Create a model wearing the shell-covered couture dress from the reference images. Keep the dress design, silhouette, pearl and shell details consistent with the references. Transform all visible skin into delicate pearlescent shell-like scales, seamlessly growing from the skin across her face, neck, shoulders, décolletage and arms.

Hyper-realistic skin texture, refined editorial fashion photography, elegant surreal beauty.
