Blue Pageant Dresses
Blue is a pretty popular color for pageants dresses. Some of the most popular shades of blue, as far as pageant dresses are concerned, include pale blue, teal blue, turquoise blue, and royal blue. We’ve never had a solid blue dress, but we have had turquoise and white dresses that were consistent winners. This color combination looked great on my granddaughter, who has dark eyes, brunette hair, and a fairly dark complexion, due to some Native American ancestry.
Lighter shades of blue are fairly forgiving, so they can be worn by a pretty large number of girls. Darker shades of blue, like royal, are more limited in the girls who can effectively wear them in pageants. Surprisingly, royal blue is often a very good shade for girls with red hair, auburn hair, and strawberry blond hair. The first time I heard this, I didn’t believe it. I was told by a pageant friend that a cute little redhead we knew was going to be wearing a royal blue dress in a big upcoming glitz pageant, and we were very surprised. In all honesty, we wondered what in the world the child’s mother was thinking, putting her in a blue that dark. When the child appeared on stage for her beauty walk, however, we were shocked. She was absolutely stunning in her royal blue pageant dress!
