1985 college girl snapshot

Use my uploaded photo. Keep my face exactly as it is — same features, skin tone and age, no slimming, lightening, smoothing or beautifying, and do not make me look younger than I am. Change only my hair, clothes, jewellery, pose and surroundings. Put me in an Indian college corridor in 1985: hair oiled and pulled back into a single long plait over one shoulder tied with a folded cloth ribbon, a neat parting, a pale pink salwar kameez with a small floral print, and a dupatta pinned at both shoulders falling flat across the front the practical everyday way rather than draped decoratively. Small gold studs, two thin bangles, a bindi, a cloth sling bag, and three books held flat against my chest with both forearms. I am standing in open shade against a plastered pillar, feet together, slightly self-conscious posture, a small closed-mouth smile as if asked to stop and pose. Behind, out of focus, a notice board layered with paper too blurred to read, a stone floor worn smooth, and bright sunlit greenery beyond the corridor's open side. Bright midday sun outside but I am in shade: soft, even, slightly cool light with no drama, and the exterior blown out several stops brighter. No flash. 35mm amateur film, 1985: grain, flat contrast, colour faded warm with cyan shadows, and slightly casual framing with a little too much headroom. Vertical 9:16, mid-thigh up.
