Surreal Fashion Portrait with Guardian Spirit

Surreal fashion portrait of a young woman seated on a transparent acrylic throne in a minimalist studio with a warm golden beige seamless background. She has long [red] hair braided with tiny crystal beads, soft freckles, and glossy lips, styled in a cream faux-fur Y2K bolero and a satin slip dress. Behind her floats a giant translucent [lion head] made of light and golden mist, resembling a luminous guardian spirit. Tiny snow-like light particles float upward around them. Pose and angle: tight medium close-up from slightly below eye level, body angled to the side with torso turned toward the camera, one elbow resting on the throne's arm, fingertips lightly touching her chin. Studio lighting with a strong yet soft key light from one side, gentle backlight outlining the ethereal beast, shallow depth of field, surreal high-fashion editorial aesthetic.
