Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of illustrative art, Japanese illustration, and fairytale illustration. It features a distinctive modern illustrative quality while incorporating the warmth of traditional storybook illustrations and the refined linework of Japanese anime/manga. The decorative floral elements, vibrant color contrasts, and stylized character treatments all reflect this hybrid style.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this SREF style include:

  • Abundant decorative floral and plant elements that surround or integrate with the characters
  • Prominent blue tones as the main background color, creating an elegant contrast with orange-red flowers
  • Refined linework, especially in facial features and clothing details
  • Soft, fairytale-like color application that feels both modern and nostalgic
  • Characters with quiet, introspective expressions conveying a sense of serene beauty

This style is impressive because it successfully merges decorative elements with character portraiture to create imagery that is both dreamlike and narrative-driven.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Floral Decoration: Adding this keyword can enhance the intricate plant elements in the image, making the work more ornate and layered
  • Fairytale Style: Using this word can reinforce the dreamy and story-like qualities, giving characters more iconic and symbolic significance
  • Blue Palette: Adding this element strengthens the overall color harmony while adding depth and emotional expression to the composition

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for children's book illustrations, fairytale book covers, fantasy game character designs, literary work illustrations, premium packaging design, and themed commercial illustrations. It also works excellently for desktop wallpapers, art prints, and stationery design, appealing to audiences who appreciate refined aesthetics.

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 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2
