Gender bending cosplay can go either one of two ways, awful or awesome, and there’s rarely anything in between.

Thankfully, for your eye’s sake, I’ve chosen the latter example to show you today, a brilliant photoshoot of the Prince of Persia transformed into a woman. It’s from LJinto, who has some other pretty awesome cosplay shoots you should check out at his Flickr page here.

Hit the jump for the rest of the Princess of Persia shoot, including the revelation that yes, she is still rescuing a girl.
