Full prompt

Create a single-person 1985 business portrait in a broad-shouldered suit and silk blouse, against a muted blue-gray studio backdrop. Use direct studio flash, modest contrast, 35mm color negative film, fine grain, and natural skin texture. Preserve identity and avoid contemporary logos or devices. Preserve each person's recognizable identity from the reference: eye shape, nose, mouth, face shape, skin tone, approximate age, distinctive features, and natural skin texture. Change only the hairstyle, clothing, pose, lighting, and background. For group photos, map each face to the correct person, keep the exact number of people, and prevent identity blending or face swapping. Do not make absolute promises about an identical face.

People are mixed up

It looks like modern clothes with no 1980s photo feeling

Increase the authentic 1980s photographic language: period-accurate film color, on-camera flash behavior, optical softness, era-appropriate styling and props. Avoid a generic neon cyberpunk look.

The image looks too modern

Remove contemporary objects, logos, devices, cars, and architecture. Replace them with details plausible for the specified 1980s setting while preserving the subject's identity.
