Ok so this may be a dumb question, but this has been on my mind recently. I am trying to paint a canvas and I need to get the colors right for the Schuyler sisters. Is Eliza's dresses during "The Schuyler Sisters" and "Helpless/Satisfied" green or blue? In some pictures it looks like they're blue, but in others it looks like they're green. Please help!

It's not dumb! The Schuyler Sisters one is mostly blue, but it does have a turquoise shade in some lights, I think. The Helpless one is greener, as it is a different dress. The Helpless one has like a... cape (there must be a professional name for this) as it is a winter dress (it's a winter ball!). The That would be enough is different as well, and I believe is the truest (?) blue. But yeah, blue is Eliza's colour.

For what it's worth, her dress in The Schuyler Sisters is different from the Helpless/Satisfied one. I believe Eliza has the most costumes in the show. I've always thought of them as blue to be honest.

Oh man.
well, we can agree Peggy's is yellow.
(I couldn't vouch for any colour when thinking of Angelica)

Saw this on Tuesday in Chicago (finally won the lotto!) so you'd think I'd be able to remember...
Angelica's color I'd call peach or possibly blush - I remember thinking the travel coat looked almost a "nude" color on Karen Olivo.
The Helpless Eliza dress is definitely a light green, and she wears pale blue when she's pregnant. I feel like the Schuyler Sisters dress is also that sort of seafoamy green color as seen in Helpless (because I was a little surprised when she switched to blue once she was married).
