It's not meant to embody any particular culture but it's hard to come up with cultural dress completely from scratch. I think beautiful aspects of lots of cultures being appreciated as beautiful is quite nice
Well, it's definitely better than most straight manhwas that depict people of color as barbaric. This doesn't feel racist to me, but it is a bit stereotypical. It seems like the author took inspiration from different cultures and blended them together, though some aspects feel more like stereotypes than a deep understanding of those cultures.
I know it's fiction, but the culture portrayed feels like a blend of Turkish, Arabic, and Indian cultures, which are very distinct from one another. It can be a bit jarring when a story combines different cultural elements without enough explanation or a clear reason within the world-building.
