What's in the Box

• Turquoise harem trousers with gold sequined belt
• Cropped top with sheer sleeves and gold V-neckline trim
• Face veil with gold sequined border

This Kids Arabian Princess Costume brings fairytale magic to Book Week with its shimmering turquoise-and-gold genie dancer styling. The three-piece set features a cropped top with billowing sheer sleeves, high-waisted harem trousers with a permanently-attached gold sequined belt, and a matching face veil — all trimmed in metallic gold for that Arabian Nights sparkle.

The turquoise satin-finish fabric catches the light beautifully, while the sheer organza sleeves add theatrical flair. Elasticated waistband and ankle cuffs make the trousers easy to pull on, and the gold sequined trim along every edge gives it a properly princess-worthy finish. The face veil secures with an elastic band, so it stays put through playground parades and classroom photos.

Perfect For

Book Week & Fairytale Days: A natural pick for Arabian Nights storybook themes, genie characters, or any Middle Eastern princess from classic fairytales — perfect for easy book week costumes and school dress-up events.

School Concerts & Themed Parties: Great for nativity plays (wise men's attendant, exotic traveller), multicultural days, or any Arabian-themed school performance where your child needs a theatrical costume that moves easily.

Dress-Up & Halloween: Works beautifully for genie-themed birthday parties, Arabian Nights fancy dress, or Halloween when paired with gold sandals and plenty of bangles.

How to Wear It

Pair with gold sandals or ballet flats and stack up the bangles for full genie energy. Hair can be worn down or in a low ponytail under the veil. Skip modern accessories — stick with gold jewellery and keep makeup to a touch of shimmer if age-appropriate.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the size chart image for chest and height measurements. The trousers have an elasticated waistband with some give, but if your child is between sizes we'd suggest sizing up — the cropped top sits higher and you want enough coverage for school events.

Can the veil be worn separately or does it have to stay on?

The veil is a separate piece with an elastic band, so your child can take it off once they're through the Book Week parade if it feels fiddly. The costume still looks complete without it.

Is this suitable for classroom wear or is it more for performances?

It's designed for both. The elastic waistband and ankle cuffs mean it's comfortable enough for a full school day, and the sheer sleeves are lightweight so it won't overheat indoors. The cropped top shows a bit of midriff — fine for most primary schools, but check your school's dress code if you're unsure.

How do I wash this without damaging the sequins?

Hand wash in cold water or use a gentle machine cycle inside a pillowcase to protect the sequined trim. Hang to dry — don't tumble. The gold trim is stitched on securely, but rough handling will loosen sequins over time.

Care: Hand wash cold, hang dry, iron sheer sleeves on low if needed.
