To highlight the unique advantages and features of the style, we have carefully crafted custom prompts for each sref. By using these prompts, you can perfectly replicate the sref's effects.

Art Style Type

This SREF style blends vintage film photography aesthetics with 1980s nostalgic styling, featuring rich analog film texture. It belongs to the neo-nostalgic design movement, creating a time-travel atmosphere through grain, warm tones, and slightly faded visual effects. This style belongs to film photography because it perfectly recreates the natural grain, color shifts, and slightly blurred edge effects of vintage camera photography.

Style Characteristics

The most distinctive feature of this SREF is its rich vintage film texture, presenting warm orange-yellow tones and prominent grain patterns. The overall color saturation is moderate with subtle fading effects, resembling precious photos pulled from old albums. The lighting treatment is soft and natural, creating a warm and nostalgic atmosphere. This style is impressive because it instantly evokes memories of beautiful past times, allowing modern digital works to possess the unique charm of the film era.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • film grain: Enhances texture quality, making works closer to authentic film photography visual effects
  • warm golden hour: Strengthens warm lighting atmosphere, elevating emotional temperature and nostalgic feelings
  • vintage color palette: Deepens retro color expression, making overall visuals more period-authentic and artistically refined

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for brand nostalgic marketing posters, retro-themed illustration design, music album covers, and fashion vintage advertising. In game art, it's perfect for creating 1980s background game scenes or character designs. Additionally, this style works well for social media content creation, easily creating warm nostalgic visual atmospheres that enhance emotional resonance.

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
