Surreal Porcelain Mask Sculpture in Decadent Steampunk Couture Portrait

A photorealistic studio portrait, vertical 3:4, upper body shot of a faceless surreal fashion sculpture. The figure has no human face, its head is a smooth mask with vertical distressed stripes in beige and black and cracked white porcelain texture.

It wears a tall, heavily distressed top hat made of tarnished brass and striped fabric, decorated with broken shards of cracked white ceramic glued to the side, several rusty metal coil springs bursting out from the top left, tattered black lace draped over the brim, and thick melted beige candle wax dripping down the hat, over the mask and onto the shoulders.

The figure wears an asymmetrical Victorian tailcoat, half is tattered black crushed velvet and half is distressed beige and black vertical striped fabric. The shoulder pads are made of cracked white porcelain like broken plates. The coat has antique brass buttons, small rusty springs and metal clasps as decoration. Around the neck is a voluminous ruffled black lace jabot.

Studio lighting, softbox, sharp focus, ultra-detailed textures of rust, cracked paint, melted wax and fabric, against a solid dark navy blue background. Gothic steampunk haute couture, Tim Burton meets Alexander McQueen, decadent and dark.
