A professional human/fashion workflow, ensure you also have these two companion files from the same repository:

  1. The Diffusion Model:
    • File: flux2_dev_fp8mixed.safetensors (approx. 35 GB)
    • Folder: ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models/
  2. The Visual Language Model
    • File: mistral_3_small_flux2_fp8.safetensors
    • Folder: ComfyUI/models/clip/
    • Description:
  3. The VAE:
    • File: flux2-vae.safetensors
    • Folder: ComfyUI/models/vae/
    • Description: Flux.2 VAE was specifically retrained to handle the 4MP native resolution and complex specular highlights (the "glint" on ornaments). Using an older Flux.1 VAE with the Flux.2 [dev] model can result in:
      • Color Banding: Subtle "rings" in the gradients of silk or chiffon fabrics.
      • Melted Ornaments: Fine silver or gold filigree appearing blurry or merged.
      • Artifacts: Small "static" or "noise" on the skin in high-contrast lighting.
