Color My Crinoline!

Ok, hive I need your opinion.

I have been trying to decide what color to dye my crinoline. At first, I was leaning toward a color that matched our wedding palette. Then I wanted something really vibrant and unexpected. If I had a favorite color it might be orange, but my favorite color changes so often I can’t really go that route either.

Here are the dye options:

What color do you think I should dye my crinoline?

I would dye it which ever colour matches your sash best - that would be so cute!

Scarlet! It would be the best pop of colour! And if not scarlet, fuchsia, they’re the two that stand out the most to me, everything else is a bit sedate!

I like tangerine. It’s orange, which you would like and it looks like it would go with the sash on the dress. I personally would pick aqua, but that’s just me!

If you have to dye it, I’d do it a color that matches the rest of the wedding!

Tangerine or Orange! Doesn’t that match your wedding colors and envelope lining? I love aqua too though.

I’m wondering what kind of wedding dress you have? Is it of substantial fabric? If you dye your crinoline will it show through the dress and make your dress seem orange (or whichever shade) in color?

I LOVE the idea of a little flash of color while you’re dancing and whatnot, but I wouldnt want it to detract from the overall look of your dress.

Golden Yellow. Something different than your coopery goodness, and a nod to your pineapple alter-ego!

How fun!! Some brides over at kvetch.indiebride.com have also dyed their crinolines. I say Evening Blue, or Aqua for two reasons: 1) it will complement your champagne colored dress beautifully, and 2) it will be your “something blue”!

Go orange (or some shade of)! It is bold and even if it isn’t always your favorite you should at least always like it since it was your favorite at that point in your life.

I like pink or turquoise… a popping color.. but orange too is good and fits in your color scheme.

Auaqua!! It’s bold, unexpected, and it’d be an awesome “something blue”

Aqua! I second all the thoughts on the surprise color, and to have your something blue be THAT bold. Well, that’d just be fantastic!

BTW I had a hard time dying my underskirt - I followed directions, used the Rit Dye and nada.

So a word to the wise - big a BOLD and beautifully bright color!

I like Aubergine and Wine as they will nicely compliment your sash and the shade of white in your dress. I’d recommend choosing a complimentary color, brights may clash with the tones of the dress and look too stark.
