Full comparisonCompare Models (select 4)
Fashion photography lives or dies on fabric realism, flattering proportions, clean skin tones, and lighting that feels intentional—whether you’re producing runway looks, glossy editorial spreads, or quick outfit-of-the-day (OOTD) posts. Flux Ultra 1.1 and Seedream 4.5 are both built to generate high-quality fashion images inside Influencer Studio, but they shine in different parts of the workflow.
Below is a practical comparison focused on the outputs fashion creators care about most: garment texture and drape, accessory fidelity, consistent styling, controllable art direction, and how easy it is to iterate from a “good” frame to a publish-ready fashion image.

Prompt
"A 22–28-year-old woman with shoulder-length wavy dark hair in a simple white tank top, light-wash jeans, and clean sneakers holds her phone slightly above eye level for a casual front-camera selfie, glancing near the lens with a relaxed half-smile mid-walk. Real street setting outside a corner café with a paper coffee cup in her other hand, pedestrians softly blurred behind her, natural late-afternoon sunlight and unedited, everyday phone-camera look."

Flux Ultra 1.1 Strengths
- Exceptional photorealism for runway and editorial frames, with strong micro-detail in fabrics, stitching, and textures
- Premium “camera-like” lighting and depth that supports high-end fashion aesthetics (studio, street, golden hour)
- Crisp rendering for accessories (bags, jewelry, eyewear) and overall image polish suited to hero shots
- Strong performance when you need a single, standout image with minimal compromise in realism
Seedream 4.5 Strengths
- Image-to-image editing makes it easier to refine an existing fashion shot (adjust outfit details, background, styling) without restarting
- Versatile style range for editorial concepts, lookbooks, and social-first OOTD variations (minimal, streetwear, high fashion)
- High-resolution output that supports cropping for multiple placements (feed, story, thumbnails) from one generation
- Efficient iteration for art direction: quick changes to colorways, silhouettes, locations, and mood while keeping the core concept
Verdict
If your priority is premium, photorealistic fashion imagery—especially runway-style hero frames and editorial “cover-ready” shots—Flux Ultra 1.1 is the stronger pick for maximum detail and a high-end finish.
If your workflow depends on editing and iteration—for example, turning one base look into multiple OOTD posts, refining styling, or art-directing variations without losing momentum—Seedream 4.5 is often the more practical choice. Both cost 16 credits per image, so the decision typically comes down to whether you value top-tier realism (Flux Ultra 1.1) or flexible revision control (Seedream 4.5).
