Okay, these are getting more and more complicated, but this one was fun.

Let's be frank- Aladdin is hardly an exercise in historical accuracy. Combine that with Claire knowing veeeery little about historical* Middle Eastern clothing before starting on Jasmine, and you've got yourself a few days of research before digging into this thing.

It took some effort to track down some midriff-baring outfits but BY GEORGE I DID, thank you Persian fashion plates. I now know what sirwal are called (besides Hammer pants), and that Persian women wore some pretty sweet little jackets that I wish I owned.

OH ALSO I DREW A KITTY

*seemed silly to say "pre-Islamic" when I ended up researching pre- and post-Islamic fashion.

I think my favorite detail is the Henna on her hands. Absolutely lovely, this one might be my favorite of the series.

Hahaha, I love the detail of the piece of underwear under the tiger's claws to reference that part of the movie xD.
And the design is beautiful, you're very talented!

This is so beautiful I want to cry. I wish Disney films would shoot for more historical accuracy or just more intricacy in their costume designs.. orrrr... better yet, they should just hire you and pay you all the money to make the world beautiful. <3
