Will it actually look like a real photo?

Yes. The output is photoreal — a real-looking portrait of you on the cobblestones, in the corridor, and at the bar — not a painting or a fashion illustration.

Is this an officially licensed YSL product?

No — this is an AI-generated portrait styled in that Newton-era register, not a licensed or affiliated product. The output is your own portrait, inspired by that aesthetic.

Which scenes does the pack cover?

Three moods from the smoking's mythology: wet cobblestones under one streetlamp, a hotel corridor, and a 2am bar. Nine portraits, three per scene.

How is this different from booking a real editorial shoot?

A real Newton-style sitting means sourcing an authentic satin-lapel tuxedo, a night location, and a photographer trained in hard single-lamp monochrome. This gives you the same cobblestones, the same corridor, the same bar.

Can men use this pack?

The point of Le Smoking is the tuxedo worn by a woman — the styling is built for women's androgyne glamour.

Will the photos look like me?

Every photo looks like you, well photographed. If one is nearly right, say what to change, in your own words.

Do I have to write a prompt?

No. There is nothing to write: you pick a pack, and it is ready in seconds.

How many photos of myself do I add?

Between six and twenty, from different days and in different light, with your face clear. We check each one when you add it.

What happens to the photos I add?

They are used only to create your model, on our own servers in the European Union. They are not shared and not sold.

The YSL Le Smoking photoshoot register

Le Smoking, 1966: the tuxedo for women in its canonical mythology, extended into a whole world from Helmut Newton's rue Aubriot photograph. Wet nocturnal cobblestones, one streetlamp, hair slicked, hands in trouser pockets — nine le smoking photographs, each drawn from Newton's rue Aubriot.

The palette is black, white, wet-street silver, lamp amber. Three moods: wet cobbles under a single lamp, satin lapel gleaming, the stance the entire argument; a hotel corridor of numbered doors, the jacket open over an untied bow, androgyne glamour at cruising speed; a mahogany bar at 2am, a look sideways to the lens that ends every argument the century had about trousers.

The output is photoreal — a real-looking photograph of you in that tuxedo, not a painting or a fashion illustration. Androgynous elegance only lands when it reads as an actual editorial sitting.

How to photograph yourself for a Le Smoking photoshoot

Better source photos make better portraits.

Even, soft lightWindow light on your face, no overhead bulbs or direct flash — the hard-monochrome nocturne register needs real facial contrast to build from.
Front or three-quarter angleEye level, facing the camera or turned slightly. No selfie-stick uplook.
Face fully clearHair off the face, no sunglasses. The best photo for an AI portrait gives the model the most of you to work with.
A cool, direct gazeThe Newton register is a stance, not a smile — a level, unbothered look reads truest.
Plain background is fineThe cobblestone street replaces your backdrop entirely — a plain wall behind you just keeps the model's focus on your face.

About narcis

Most AI photo tools put every pose, job, era, and style in one giant catalog. The photos all look like every other AI photo on the internet — a glaze over a stock face. Narcis goes the other way. One job: photos of you that look like photographs. You add at least 6 photos of yourself, and we create your AI model from them. Your photos are ready in a few hours, and we email you when they are. Then this pack and every other pack on Narcis can be made with your face. Each pack is curated against real references — paintings, photographers, places — and tested on real faces before it goes live. Built and run by one small team, on our own servers.

All images are AI-generated. By using this service, you confirm you are 18+, that any face photo you upload is your own or used with explicit consent. Full Terms
