Princess Lifting Her Full Skirt in a Long Ball Gown

A young princess stands in a graceful pose, gently lifting the sides of her big, full ball gown with both hands. She wears a headscarf-style cap with a small crown-like band, long hair that falls down her back, a round earring, and a dark choker around her neck. The dress has long sleeves, a wide neckline, a pointed waist, and soft gathered folds that sweep out into a wide skirt. At the bottom left, one corner of the skirt is lifted to show a scalloped inner edge. Her smiling face and open posture make her fun to color. Try using two or three shades for the gown and a contrasting color for the scalloped lining, then talk with your child about how colors can show light and shadow in the folds. The large open skirt is easy for small hands to fill in. This free printable works well for a quiet afternoon or a classroom activity.
