Q: Cinderella is my all-time favorite movie and my favorite princess since I was very young. I remember seeing the movie in the local movie theater! I have an ongoing “disagreement” for decades with my family and have since found out that this is an ongoing debate for many. So my question is: In the original Cinderella movie, is her ball gown white (silverish/pearlish) or blue? I would love to get an official answer on this one and end it once and for all.

A: The problem is that in different shading and lighting conditions in the film, the dress looks a different color. It seems to range from a pale blue to a silvery white from scene to scene. Becky Cline at the Walt Disney Archives feels that the primary color is pale blue.
