Why is it that Cinderella's dress is always portrayed as blue, when it was white in the movie?

One of my বন্ধু at ডিজনি told me this one. This change occurred in the early 90's due to the artists who make the promotional posters, vhs covers, etc. They wanted to বিজ্ঞাপন সিন্ড্রেলা in her iconic ballgown surrounded দ্বারা streams of sparkly magic (rather than rags)...however in the original silver color, the dress and sparkles blended into one another. So these artists added the darker blue tint to the dress in order to add contrast. It has remained so ever since.

If আপনি watch the film, there is a point when আপনি see her reflection in some water, and the reflection of the dress seems fairly blue. Also when walking in the moonlight with the Prince her dress gives off a blueish colour.

Another reason may be to make each princess have a specific colour combination to differentiate each princess with each other-
Snow White: The Primary Colours, Red, Blue, Yellow
Cinderella: Blue (even though her dress was really white)
Aurora: পরাকাষ্ঠা (even though she spent most of the time in the film wearing the blue version)
Ariel: Iconic Red, Green, Purple combination as Mermaid, plus her Baby পরাকাষ্ঠা coloured dress.
Belle: Yellow
Jasmine: Turquoise

Cinderella's dress is most definitely silver and white. In its earliest প্রথমপাতা release (1988) it looked white, but in the two times it was restored (1995 and then again in 2005), it was clearly silver and white. It just looked blue in settings that were darker, like when সিন্ড্রেলা danced with the prince.

Cinderella's dress is probably portrayed as blue most of the time just because it is আরো marketable that way. People may think the original silver dress is just boring gray. The same goes with how they made her hair a brighter, yellower shade when in the film it is darker and oranger.

The প্রতিমূর্তি alafastanzio gave were misleading. আপনি can tell that the first cover he showed actually did not come from 1988, as it has the same শিরোনাম box as the 1995 cover. I suppose it's possible the pose of সিন্ড্রেলা on that cover came from a 1988 cover in another country, but from all I've seen it is doubtful.

It's really bullcrap that the artists say the sparkly white magic blended into her গাউন, gown because in the film itself আপনি can clearly see the white sparkly dust against her silver গাউন, gown in the transformation scene as well as clearly see any of the white sparkles the dress makes when it moves. They could have simply made her গাউন, gown a darker silver if they needed to.

The latest cover, for the Diamond Edition Blu-ray, shows সিন্ড্রেলা in a silverish bluish gown, so we know they can make it আরো silver on the covers and it'll look good.

I always wondered about that too! I like the original silver-white dress more!

Wow, I've never actually noticed that! I suppose it could be so that the dress doesn't blend in with the background. Pictures of the princesses usually have a white অথবা light-colored background (like the first one আপনি posted), so a white dress probably wouldn't look as good as a blue dress.

Personally, I like the white dress better.

Actually to me the "white" dress looks like a very light blue so maybe they just darkened the color in advertisements and such so it wouldn't blend in with the background

I don't know, but if আপনি look at Belle her dress is portrayed as bright yellow when it was golden in the movie.

I know, it drives me crazy too. They also make her blonder. I also wish Aurora would be in blue.

I dont know.

good প্রশ্ন but im pretty sure its blue

I think her dress was a really light blue. I heard that from somewhere

I assumed it's because blue looks pretty on little girls' t-shirts, as opposed to a silver which would look bland on a little girl.

I agree it is WHITE... It looks blue in many scenes because it is in the moonlight. The prince's white জ্যাকেট and the coach appear blue in these scenes as well. I imagine when Diseney went to market the dress... Blue is how most people perceive the dress as it looks blue in so mamy scenes due to the moonlight

I don't know. The original animators also ব্যক্ত her hair was "Burnt red" but now people have portrayed it as blonde. Also, in the new ডিজনি princess designs, she has bangs, a different hairstyle, and a completely different dress from the original. Have আপনি seen the new layouts? Ruining our childhood :P

It was a faint blue and as the effects got better and they could make vibrant colored posters they exagerated it. Also her wedding dress was white and the ball গাউন, gown was faint baby blue.

'Cause kids like color

I believe the dress was only white in that scene, and was a light blue-ish silver for the rest of its screentime. However, I think when the movie was remastered, its color eventually changed from a silvery-white to a আরো distinct blue.

Because reasons.

That's it. Like, that's basically Disney's reasoning for changing the color of her dress.
It's so stupid.

If any of y’all are still debating on whether অথবা not the dress is blue of white, look at the original movie posters. The dress was never really supposed to look white. It was always meant to be blue, the রঙ were restored because this movie was released back in 1950, so the difference between the two similar রঙ was not so distinct. When they restored the colors, the true রঙ of Cinderellas’ dress were shown. In the original movie her dress looked white in most of the scenes because it took place at night, and the color usually associated with the night was blue. Most of the background was blue so if they didn’t make her dress lighter she would have blended in with the night to much. Her dress was already a very very light blue sooo yeah that why her dress looked white/silver in the original movie. Thank আপনি for your time😅

Her White/Silver dress was for her Wedding and the blue dress was for the ball

It was because of marketing reasons. ডিজনি thought that they couldn't sell it as white to little girls, because they thought it would've looked আরো like a wedding dress.

White is suggestive of a WEDDING DRESS. Her original গাউন, gown is white and silver. The reflection in the water does not render blue, the darker tone it is আরো indicative of shadowing. Using Blue was a marketing technique. Especially in developing childrens toys and ডিজনি theme parks! We see blue we think Cinderella, we see yellow we know Belle, we see red, yellow, blue we see Snow White. Now Elsa has changed things up a bit :))).

But I believe the white is too indicative of a wedding গাউন, gown and as a toy, it would simply look like a বার্বি being married!
