Vaporwave Filter: Neon Pink and Purple Retro-Futurism from Your Photo

Upload a photo and the AI vaporwave filter drops you into a retro-futuristic dreamscape. Everything is re-graded into neon pink, magenta, purple and cyan, with a soft glow and haze. Behind you appear the classic vaporwave elements: a gradient sky, a striped glowing retro sun, a neon wireframe grid floor, palm trees and a white marble bust, plus a light VHS scanline texture. Your face, hair and outfit stay the same, so it is still you, just in an 80s and 90s internet-aesthetic world. Couples work too. The console below runs on GPT Image 2.5.

Vaporwave Filter FAQ

What is vaporwave?

Vaporwave is an internet art style inspired by 80s and 90s retro-futurism: neon pink and purple colors, sunset grids, palm trees, classical statues and VHS glitches.

Will the filter change my face or clothes?

No. The prompt keeps your face, skin tone, hairstyle and outfit. Only the colors, lighting and background change.

Can I keep my original background?

Yes. Edit the prompt to remove the background part and keep only the neon pink and purple color grade.

Does it work for couples?

Yes. Upload a photo of two people and both get the vaporwave look in the same scene.

Will there be Japanese text or logos?

No. The prompt asks for no text or letters, so you get a clean image.

Want only a purple color grade?

Try the purple filter for a dreamy violet tone without the retro scene.
