## Prompt

```text
Create a highly detailed, cinematic black-and-white portrait of a young woman, centered and facing the camera with a calm, confident expression. She has {hair_style} with soft curtain bangs framing her face. Preserve realistic and delicate facial features, natural proportions, expressive eyes, and subtle lips.

Render the entire portrait using a high-contrast monochrome halftone particle technique, inspired by vintage screen-printing, stippled ink illustrations, and retro comic-book artwork. Use thousands of tiny black-and-white dots to form the facial details, hair, skin, and clothing. Add strong directional lighting with bright white highlights and deep black shadows for a dramatic three-dimensional effect.

The woman is wearing a vintage-style blouse with a {collar_type} and vertically pleated fabric. Surround her with a {background_color}, subtle glowing white particles, tiny floating geometric fragments, dust-like specks, and scattered points of light. Add a luminous white rim light around her hair and shoulders.

Ultra-detailed facial rendering, precise halftone dots, sharp edges, dramatic contrast, artistic monochrome aesthetic, cinematic composition, high clarity, professional poster design, 8K detail, symmetrical portrait framing, sophisticated editorial artwork, no text, no watermark, no inset image, no extra people.
