Retro Vice Synthwave

0 steals· updated aug 2026
Full prompt
Restyle this uploaded photo into 1980s Miami Vice synthwave aesthetic. Wash the scene in a chrome gradient sunset — hot pink bleeding into deep purple and orange along the horizon, with a glowing sunset grid line stretching behind the subject. Add soft palm tree silhouettes at the edges of the frame and a faint scanline overlay across the entire image, like a VHS tape paused mid-frame.

Keep the person's facial identity, proportions, and pose completely unchanged — do not reshape the face, alter expression, or change body proportions. Preserve the original composition and camera framing exactly; only the color grade, lighting mood, and background elements shift into the retro synthwave world. Recolor clothing into pastel tones — dusty teal, coral, or lavender — evoking 80s resort wear, without changing the actual garment shapes.

Introduce authentic VHS chroma bleed at high-contrast edges (subtle red/cyan fringing), light film grain, and a warm analog softness — but do not smooth or plasticize the skin, do not add glossy digital sheen, and do not erase texture or pores. This should look like a photo run through a real vintage synth filter, not an AI illustration.

The final result should look like a candid photo pulled from a 1985 Miami postcard shoot — chrome sunset, neon horizon, pastel wardrobe, and warm VHS grain, with the subject's real face and pose untouched.
