Wedding dress coloring pages for adults
Ten bridal gowns drawn as fashion illustrations, not cartoons: corseted ball gowns, draped silk, mermaid silhouettes and one blush tulle cloud. And if you are curious what a wedding dress looks like in a color other than white, this is the place to try.
Most wedding coloring pages online are made for children: a bride and groom in simple outlines, a cake, some bells. The Wedding Edit in Color the Look is made for adults who love bridal fashion. Each page is a full-length gown with the details a real dress has — boning in the bodice, lace appliqués, a basque waist, a pleated skirt, opera gloves, a bouquet.
It is a coloring collection for anyone planning a wedding, anyone who has a Pinterest board of dresses they will never wear, and anyone who just likes drawing satin.
Ball gowns
The classic bridal shape: a fitted bodice over a full skirt. These have the largest zones in the app, so they color quickly, and they show off fabric textures better than anything else.
Mermaid, column and draped silk
Slimmer silhouettes are where the fabric does the talking. Silk Sweep is cut on the bias, Pearl Promise is a satin mermaid with long gloves and a rose bouquet, and Lace & Wings is a lace column with sheer winged overlays.
Wedding dress colors other than white
A wedding dress does not have to be white, and it rarely is pure white anyway. These are the colors brides actually choose, from the most traditional to the least:
- Ivory and cream. Warmer than white and kinder to most skin tones. Most “white” wedding dresses are really ivory.
- Champagne and nude. A soft gold-beige, often worn under lace so the pattern shows.
- Blush. Pale pink, usually in tulle or chiffon. Blush Cloud is drawn for it.
- Silver and dove grey. Cool and modern, especially in satin.
- Pale blue. A nod to “something blue” worn as the whole dress.
- Red. The traditional bridal color in China and in many parts of India.
- Black. Rare, dramatic, and lovely in a ball-gown silhouette.

How to color a wedding dress
- Choose the fabric before the shade. Fill the gown, then try satin, silk, lace and brocade textures. Most of a wedding dress’s character is its fabric.
- Use two whites. Ivory for the dress and pure white for the highlights or the veil makes a white page look three-dimensional.
- Save every version. Color the same gown in ivory, blush and champagne, then compare them side by side in your Lookbook.
