Description:
In Islam and pre-Islamic Arabian folklore, a genie (aka jinn, and djinn) is a supernatural creature which possesses free will, and are known for leading humans astray. Genies are known for wearing for crowns, and other valuables including gold and silver. Other genie traits, which are most notable due to pop-culture, include coming from a lamp, granting wishes, etc; which this is a cosplay of.
The fabulous reference art is done by my close friend,

- excuse me, my friend is a muslim and djinns do not actually grant wishes. they are actually theives of the soul and show-offs according to her.

- This is a cosplay, it says in the guidelines, you do not have to cosplay a specific character or person, creatures can be cosplaying, also.

- but technically, people...Cosplay doesn't have to be a specific character, the definition of cosplay is dressing in a costume as something you're not...If i dress as a mystical fairy princess unicorn ninja, that's cosplay razz

>_> the djinn part is incorrect...a Djinn is a demon that can make wishes come true but feeds off of the soul of the person who made the wish. kind of like making a deal with the devil, but the person's wish doesn't actually come true, they just fall into a deep sleep and dream that it did.
