But why Jasmine is wearing a european diadem in the Aladdin live-action

[.Naeyon]

When it was only European princesses who wore diadems like that 

 

As far as I know middle eastern / south asian women had different things

People can't trade stuffs on the Silk Road?

 

Also it's a movie about genies and magic and Aladin OG setting is somewhere in China so it's not like the setting is ever consistent

its not very europenan, middle eastern have many styles therefore i did see this type of diadem here as well o.o especially considering such jewelries were inspired from middle east to start with

 

forgot to mention, china was one of the first to design such head jewelries when diadems were from middle east, so, yep countries interact

Not European but keep whining Ig

I found only these forehead centered accessories from ME but correct me if I'm wrong

An assyrian queen wore this

And north africans had this 

 

Egypt 

And persians this 

 

While she's wearing a  kokoshnik , sarmatian and byzantine inspired headpiece fro women

[Silicon]

That's the sort of thing people focus on in a world of magic, genies and flying carpets?
