ALTER.EGO has 16 style directions — each one a different world you can step into with a single selfie. Some are cinematic and grounded in reality. Some are pure fantasy. Some are professional and polished. Some are completely unhinged in the best possible way.
Here's exactly what each style does, what it looks like, and who it's best for.
35mm film aesthetic. Golden hour light. Anamorphic lens flare. Kodak grain. Think a still from a prestige drama — moody, textured, deeply cinematic.
Vogue. GQ. Elle. Studio-lit magazine cover quality. Clean backgrounds, perfect lighting, editorial styling. Looks like it belongs on a newsstand.
Blade Runner rain. Neon reflections on wet pavement. Electric colour. Futuristic streetwear. The dystopian city at night done right.
Ghibli meets cyberpunk. Detailed cel-shading, expressive eyes, detailed linework. A fully rendered anime portrait version of you.
Old Masters portrait tradition. Rembrandt light. Rich texture. Dark backgrounds with warm candlelit tones. Looks like it belongs in a museum.
Luxury fashion campaign. Architectural backdrops. Structured power dressing. The kind of image brands spend six figures producing.
Deep space. Alien landscapes. Tactical gear and holographic armour. Epic cosmic scale. Dune vibes. You as the protagonist of a sci-fi epic.
Urban rooftops at golden hour. Candid editorial energy. Raw street photography meets fashion campaign. City grit, expressive style.
Executive presence. Clean studio lighting. Professional finish. LinkedIn-ready, résumé-ready, bio-photo ready. Serious without being stiff.
Old Hollywood. Black and white drama. Smouldering intensity. Think silver screen icons — Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant, Marlene Dietrich energy.
Illyrian battle leathers. Twin moons. Ancient forests. Fae court power. Sarah J. Maas's world rendered with cinematic accuracy — your face in the Night Court.
Stadium lights. Championship energy. Sports campaign quality — the kind of image that appears on the side of a building during the World Cup.
Bold silkscreen treatment. Factory pop art. Four-panel iconic grid. Andy Warhol's signature style applied to your face. Instantly recognisable.
Portofino harbour. Slim Aarons leisure photography. Kodachrome pastels. Saturated blues and yellows. Old money Mediterranean summer.
Wildflower meadows. 1970s free spirit. Sun-soaked analogue film. Golden light, natural textures, effortless style. Romantic and warm.
Royal courts. Velvet and gold. Van Dyck portrait authority. The kind of painting that hangs in a palace. You as nobility — commanding, regal, timeless.
Each style direction has multiple visual interpretations that rotate on every generation — so even within the same style, no two portraits are identical. That variation is intentional. Part of the fun is running the same selfie through a style multiple times and seeing which world the AI decides you inhabit.
Our most popular styles based on usage are Acotar, Headshot, Cinematic and Sovereign. The most shareable on social media are Acotar, Warhol, Cyberpunk and Sovereign — they're visually distinctive enough to stop the scroll.
If you're not sure where to start, try Cinematic first. It's the most universally flattering, works well on any face, and the results are consistently strong. Then try Acotar or Sovereign for something more dramatic.
