# ============================================================
# GOWNS & DRESSES POSES - KREA2 (natural-language prose)
# Gender-neutral: subject referred to as "the subject"; body parts take
# "the" (the hip, the neck) - no gendered pronouns anywhere.
# DANCE-FORWARD by request: the bulk are dance and movement poses that let a
# gown's skirt and lines read, plus a few elegant formal stances. Flavored
# through fabric and carriage (the skirt, the hem, the train) rather than any
# fixed prop, so they stay portable across every environment in the pool.
# Attribute-clean: no skin, hair, eye, or specific garment callouts.
# One pose per line. Pair with __dresses_environment__ and a gown line.

# Dance
the subject is caught mid-turn with the skirt flaring wide in a circular sweep, one arm curved overhead and the other extended, the weight rising onto one foot
the subject holds an arabesque line with one leg extended long behind and both arms reaching forward, the skirt trailing off the lifted leg, poised and elongated
the subject sweeps into a deep side lunge with the leading knee bent and both arms sweeping outward, the hem swinging away from the extended rear leg
the subject rises on the ball of one foot with the free leg lifted at the knee and the opposite arm curved overhead, the skirt lifting with the motion
the subject sinks into a deep graceful plie with the knees turned out and both arms curved low in front, the skirt pooling and spreading over the floor
the subject arches back with the chest open and both arms drawn behind, one leg pointed forward, the skirt cascading from the arched line of the body
the subject twists through the torso mid-step with one arm pulling across the body and the other flung wide, the skirt spiralling with the turn
the subject extends one leg into a long low lunge with both arms lifted upward, the hem swept taut along the reaching line
the subject balances on one leg with the free leg extended behind and the arms outstretched to the sides, the skirt streaming off the lifted leg
the subject steps through a crossed-leg turn with one arm drawn in to the chest and the other flared outward, the skirt wrapping and releasing
the subject pauses in a toe-pointed step with the heel lifted and both arms angled on a clean diagonal, the hem lifted with the extended foot
the subject dips into a low grounded stance with the legs wide and both arms braced outward, the skirt spread broad across the floor
the subject reaches upward through an elongated spine with the fingertips extended and one heel lifted, the gown drawn long and taut
the subject holds a dance finish with one leg crossed forward and both arms gently lowered, the skirt settling around the still line of the body

# Partnered
the subject stands in a raised waltz frame with one arm curved forward at shoulder height and the other extended to the side, the weight poised to step
the subject leans into a gentle backward dip with one arm sweeping overhead and the spine curved, the skirt falling away from the arched line

# Formal
the subject stands tall in an elegant contrapposto with the weight on one hip, one hand resting lightly at the waist and the head lifted, serene and poised
the subject sinks into a graceful curtsy with one foot drawn behind, the knees bending and the skirt held lightly out to the sides, the head inclined
the subject stands three-quarters to the front with one hand gathering the skirt to the side and the other loose, the head turned over the shoulder
the subject stands with both hands lightly clasped at the front and the shoulders drawn back, the chin level, a poised formal repose

# Seated
the subject sits upright on the edge of a low seat with the ankles crossed and the hands folded in the lap, the skirt arranged in a smooth fall to the floor
the subject sits turned aside with one arm resting along a chair back and the skirt sweeping across the floor in a long arc, the head turned to the front
the subject reclines gracefully propped on one elbow with the legs drawn up and angled aside, the gown pooling in soft folds, the head tipped at ease

# Motion
the subject walks forward mid-stride with the skirt swinging back from the leading leg and one hand lightly lifting the hem, the carriage upright and light
