What is Chic Illustration SREF style

This visual style is characterized by meticulous, fine ink outlining paired with soft, expressive watercolor washes, capturing a look reminiscent of classic high-end editorial artwork, particularly for fashion and lifestyle magazines. The compositions are often balanced, featuring elegant portraiture or detailed scenic compositions imbued with a charming, sophisticated whimsy. To successfully invoke this aesthetic in Midjourney, your prompt should prioritize clean linework and gentle color layering over heavy textures, resulting in polished images that feel both timeless and contemporary.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?
