Stable Diffusion styles are a collection of pre-trained prompts that you can use to influence the style of images.
That’s why, in this post, I won’t just reveal the top stable diffusion styles for you to incorporate into your work.
I’ll also guide you on crafting your own styles for SDXL and other SD models, drawing inspiration from images from various sources.

How to Create, Add/Delete Styles
In this section, I am going to show you how to create Stable Diffusion styles suitable for all models including SDXL taking inspiration from any site.
Whether you are using automatic 1111 or any other web UI, you can easily create styles.
But before diving in, remember:
Styles empower you to incorporate personalized text into prompts. Employ the {prompt} token within the style text, and it will seamlessly integrate with your prompt upon application.
Alternatively, the text from the style will be appended to the end of the prompt.
So, first of all, find your inspiration. In my case, I have chosen the below prompt.
Prompt: Sticker {of an ultra-detailed portrait of Morena Baccarin}, high-quality cell-shaded illustration in post-apocalyptic style by Yoji Shinkawa, dynamic pose, perfect anatomy, centered, freedom, soul, red long hair, approach to perfection, cell shading, 4k, cinematic dramatic atmosphere.
Negative prompt: Men, blurry, disfigured, deformed, toy, cartoon, poorly drawn, extra limbs, close up, weird colors, blurry, watermark, blur haze
Now test the prompt style by just generating an image.
Okay, I want to go with this image style.
Now, click on the pencil icon just right of the style and you will land on the page to give data for style.
Here you should use the generic style, in my case, I am replacing {of an ultra-detailed portrait of Morena Baccarin} by {prompt} and hit the save button.
In this way, you can save your preferred style effortlessly for future use. To delete a style, simply select it and press the delete button—easy as that!
If you’re still unsure or looking for more styles, check out this GitHub page.
