Conclusions First
- The
yellow raincoat color specification works stably — yellow raincoats appeared in all 3 outputs transparent raincoat functions accurately as a transparent vinyl material — a semi-transparent material showing the clothing underneath was reproduced in all 3 outputswearing only a raincoat, nude underneath functions as a bare skin expression — a state with no clothing under the raincoat was generated in 3 out of 3 imageshooded raincoat stably generates a hooded state — all 3 images have the hood up- An unspecified
raincoat defaults to an opaque trench coat-like style — color varies across khaki, navy, and beige yellow raincoat and transparent raincoat tend to generate with a hood — an interesting tendency where color/material specification also appears to influence whether a hood is present
Experiment Design
Change only the raincoat modifier as a single variable and observe the effect on the output.

Evaluation Criteria
- Raincoat color, material, and shape
- Presence or absence of a hood
- Presence, absence, or transparency of clothing worn underneath
- Consistency of the background (rainy street scene)
Results for Each Condition
A: Basic (raincoat)
1girl, 32yo japanese actress, raincoat, standing, looking at viewer, rainy street
Observations
- All 3 images generated a long-length raincoat
- Color varies: seed 42 is khaki-ish, seed 123 is navy, seed 789 is beige — color varies because no specification was given
- All have no hood (or a folded-down hood). Material is an opaque fabric
- Seed 789 has a double-breasted trench coat design, closer to a coat than a raincoat
- All backgrounds are a wet-pavement Japanese shopping street, with consistent rainy atmosphere
B: Yellow (yellow raincoat)
1girl, 32yo japanese actress, yellow raincoat, standing, looking at viewer, rainy street
Observations
- All 3 images generated a clearly yellow raincoat. Color specification works stably
- Worth noting: all 3 images have a hood (seed 123 and seed 789 have the hood up). Compared to the basic
raincoat which had no hood, yellow raincoat tends to generate with a hood - Seed 42 has 2 people — another person in a yellow raincoat appeared in the background
- Material is the same opaque fabric or nylon as condition A
C: Transparent material (transparent raincoat)
1girl, 32yo japanese actress, transparent raincoat, standing, looking at viewer, rainy street
Observations
- All 3 images generated a transparent/semi-transparent vinyl raincoat. The
transparent specification works very well - The black clothing (T-shirt or camisole) worn underneath is visible through the raincoat
- All 3 images generated with a hood. Transparent vinyl raincoats with hoods are common in real products, so this is a natural result
- Water droplets and light reflections are depicted on the raincoat’s surface, well expressing the vinyl material texture
D: Bare skin expression (wearing only a raincoat, nude underneath)
1girl, 32yo japanese actress, wearing only a raincoat, nude underneath, standing, looking at viewer, rainy street
Observations
- 3 out of 3 images generated a state with no clothing under the raincoat. The
nude underneath specification is working - Seed 42 and seed 123 have the raincoat open at the front, with bare skin directly visible
- Seed 789 has bare skin showing through a semi-transparent raincoat
- The raincoat itself is a long-length with a hood, same as condition A, but tends toward semi-transparent material (similar texture to condition C)
- All 3 have wet hair, emphasizing the situation of exposure in the rain
E: Hooded (hooded raincoat)
1girl, 32yo japanese actress, hooded raincoat, standing, looking at viewer, rainy street
Observations
- All 3 images generated a raincoat with the hood up. The
hooded specification works stably - Color varies: seed 42 is khaki-ish, seed 123 is dark gray, seed 789 is beige. Color varies as in condition A
- The hood is firmly on the head, with the hood’s edge visible around the face
- Material is opaque fabric — condition A’s basic form with a hood added
Cross-Condition Comparison (Same Seed)
| Condition | Seed 42 | Seed 123 | Seed 789 |
|---|
| A: Basic |  |  |  |
| B: Yellow |  |  |  |
| C: Transparent |  |  |  |
| E: Hooded |  |  |  |
※ Condition D is excluded from the cross-comparison table due to mosaic processing.
Summary
Effect by Modifier
| Modifier | Color change | Material change | Hood presence | Effect stability |
|---|
| (none) raincoat | Varies | Opaque | None | – |
| yellow | Fixed yellow | Opaque | Tends to appear | 3/3 |
| transparent | Varies | Transparent vinyl | Tends to appear | 3/3 |
| nude underneath | Varies | Tends toward semi-transparent | Present | 3/3 |
| hooded | Varies | Opaque | Up | 3/3 |
Hood Behavior Worth Noting
An interesting finding: while raincoat alone generates without a hood, yellow raincoat and transparent raincoat tend to generate with a hood. Even without explicitly specifying hooded raincoat, the color or material modifier appears to influence whether a hood is present.
On the other hand, specifying hooded raincoat results in the hood being worn up. In other conditions, even when a hood is attached, it may not be worn up. “Having a hood” and “wearing the hood up” are different states — hooded appears to mean the latter.
