What’s the Traditional Color for a Quinceañera Dress?

Picking the Right Color for a Quinceañera Dress

While white or pink are the traditional colors for a quinceañera dress at the coming-out party celebrating your 15th birthday and your entry into womanhood, today’s young women are breaking with tradition. Go traditional, or show your individuality by choosing the color that best flatters you and most reflects your personality. Just remember that this is an important occasion in a young woman’s life requiring a very special dress.

The classic white dress dates back to hundreds of years ago in Mexico, when a quinceañera was about announcing a very young woman’s availability for marriage. White evolved to pink to show innocence. However, some young women prefer to reserve white for their wedding day, which in today’s era is years away from their 15th birthday. Choose pink if that’s your favorite color.
