* Hikaru Makiba from ''Anime/UFORoboGrendizer'' -one of the ''Anime/MazingerZ'' series- was feminine, gentle and caring and wore a blue uniform. [[RedOniBlueOni By contrast]], [[TomboyAndGirlyGirl her best friend]], Maria was a tomboyish {{Tsundere}} and usually wore red or pink.
* While more action oriented, princess Allura/Fala of ''Anime/{{Voltron}}''/''Anime/GoLion'' wore pink, Romelle/Amue wore a blue dress while she was less active, and switched to a pink MinidressOfPower when she took an active role.

* Marnie from ''Anime/WhenMarnieWasThere'' favors wearing blue dresses. [[spoiler:Her style of dress could be {{foreshadowing}} to the fact she's not a [[DeadAllAlong modern day child]]]]. She is a sweet, outgoing GirlyGirl in contrast to the shy and somewhat tomboyish Anna.

** Hinata Hyuga of the Hyuga Clan. Originally a a ShrinkingViolet, she develops into a beautiful and confident LadyOfWar. She also has [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair dark blue hair]] and wears navy blue pants.

** Lucy Van Pelt of usually wears a blue dress, although she's typically ''anything'' but "fair and gentle". She likes to think of herself as beautiful and adorable, though.

** WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}}'s dress is only blue in products from the "Disney Princess" line. The dress is supposed to be silver (although the [[NiceShoes glass slippers]] were always blue tinted), but DigitalDestruction caused her dress to become silvery-blue, a problem that still exists in the blu-ray release[[note]]Along with her hair, which is supposed to strawberry-blonde, but is pure blonde in the aforementioned "Disney Princess" products, as well as both the DVD and the aforementioned blu-ray version[[/note]]. However, her nightgown was definitely blue. Her sweet and kindly FairyGodmother also wears a blue dress.

*** In ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', Queen Elsa pretty much wears exclusively blue dresses, from the nightgown when we first see her as a young girl, to her teal coronation dress, to her ice blue snow queen dress. This symbolizes many things, from her loneliness growing up, to her being more reserved compared to her sister. Though she only becomes slightly less reserved once she opens up herself. Mostly the blue is because she's AnIcePerson.

** The dress WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} wore to infiltrate the invaded palace, disguised as a courtesan. Chien-Po also wears a blue dress when he, Yao and Ling disguise themselves as women.

** Lady from ''WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTramp'' was given a blue collar. Her owner's son has an extremely pink wardrobe so the colors are probably in used in the older "Blue=Feminine, Pink=Masculine" way.

** In ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians'', Anita is usually seen wearing blue. Perdita, like Lady, wears a blue collar. In the animated movie, all her daughters have blue collars (In the live action film, the boys have blue, and it's mixed up in the TV show). In the series, Cadpig and Two-Tone both wear blue collars.

* In ''Film/PitchPerfect'', the Bellas' primary color is blue (the other being yellow and white). Their uniform is a navy blue flight-attendant like attire, while TheLeader's pitch pipe (which symbolizes her authority) is baby blue. This is to highlight their femininity and contrast with the all-male (and red clad) Treblemakers.

* Averted in ''Film/DevilInABlueDress''. Daphne Monet is no innocent as the title makes clear, though whether she's a true FemmeFatale is debatable. She's certainly well aware of her attractiveness to men however, and doesn't hesitate to use it to her advantage.

* Kate Davies in ''Film/{{Valentine}}'' wears blue at turbo dating, Max's exhibition, first questioning session with Detective Vaughn and Dorothy Wheeler's party, this color associates to her kind and gentle personality.

* In ''Series/MadMen'' this is the beauty-focused and traditional Betty Draper Francis's favored color along with white, given how it highlights her Grace Kelly-esque beauty, Teutonic coloring (light skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes). Not only does it serve a purpose in highlighting her looks, it also highlights her role as housewife and mother.* In the ''[[Series/SpartacusBloodAndSand Spartacus series]]'', Lucretia's body slaves seems to be required to be clad in blue, as seen with Melitta and Naevia. The other women in the show regularly dressed in blue as well.

* In ''Series/{{Westworld}}'', Dolores, the standard "girl next-door" in Sweetwater, wears a blue dress.

* The Beauty Pair of [[Wrestling/AllJapanWomensProWrestling Zenjo]], the first breakout stars of joshi puroreso or the Japanese women's pro wrestling circuit, usually dressed in blue, when they weren't wearing black anyway, or blue with black stripes or black with blue stripes. Anyway, they were a fairly "feminine" pair by pro wrestling standards, almost as well known for their singing, dancing and fashion as they were for their take downs and pins. As a result, wrestlers have since worn blue(or black) when expressing their femininity.
* When Wrestling/{{WSU}} became an all women's company, purple and blue became its primary colors, on the logo and the title belt plates, respectively. In this case they symbolized bruising more than grace or peace. When Wrestling/{{CZW}} took over the promotion was increasingly signified by pink, however.

* In the Neighborhood of Make Believe of ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood,'' Henrietta Pussycat, the fashionable, yet caring cat, sometimes wore a blue dress.

* In ''Toys/{{BIONICLE}}'', all the Matoran/Toa/Turaga of the Water element are female and blue colored. The female elements of Lightning and Psionics also have blue as their main color. This is solely averted with Orde, created by the Great Beings as the first Toa of Psionics. His first task was to soothe the savage Zyglak, but due to his temper he only worsened matters. As a result, all subsequent Matoran and Toa of Psionics were made female because WomenAreWiser.

* In ''VideoGame/BioshockInfinite'', Elizabeth at first wears a blue skirt with a white shirt that has blue details. She then changes into a long blue skirt and blue shrug (which are a replica of clothes Lady Comstock wore who also is an example of this trope). Here the blue symbolizes sadness, peace and isolation.

* ''VideoGame/BodyBlows'': Azona is a blue clad warrior woman who competes in the series' second tournament, ''Body Blows Galactic'', which pits fighters from various planets against each other to determine the greatest fighter in the universe. Worth noting that her choice of color for her attire is fitting within the context of this trope given that her, and Kai-Ti's, home planet, Feminon, has a matriarchal society.
* ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive'' has Kasumi and Helena. The former's trademark outfit is a blue ninja tunic while the latter's outfits include a blue dress, a blue tailcoat and a black-and-blue catsuit.

* ''WesternAnimation/BlinkyBill'': The clothes in [[MsFanservice Daisy Dingo's]] standard outfit (a knotted top, jeans and high heels) are all coloured in different shades of blue (although they eventually gained a teal tint due to season 3's slight ArtEvolution).

* Charlotte of ''WesternAnimation/MakingFiends'' is ''completely'' blue. Her skin, eyes, clothes and hair are all blue. She's the epitome of a CheerfulChild.

%% ** A flashback shows that refined femininity was a trait widespread in the court of Blue Diamond, which included Sapphire, Lapis, and many other silhouettes of Gems in shades of blue, most of whom wore dresses or skirts. Blue Diamond's Pearl fit the stereotype of Pearls as emotionless, pretty dolls for nobles, which the other two Pearls we've seen don't. Blue Diamond herself wears a veil reminiscent of the Virgin Mary, and speaks softly, though she's still as ruthless as any tyrant. This is a deep contrast with Yellow Diamond and every known Gem who was made to serve her; they all have outwardly [[{{Jerkass}} aggressive, rude and haughty]] personalities, even the Pearl, and generally have gender-neutral designs.

** Miss Kitty (a female dancer/showgirl mouse) showgirl outfit in ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective''.

** The dress WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} wore to infiltrate the invaded palace, disguised as a courtesan. Chien-Po also wears a blue dress when he and his friends disguise themselves as women.

* In ''Film/LaBelleEtLaBete'', Belle wears a deep blue dress for her dance with the Beast.

[[caption-width-right:260:You know, in the actual movie, her dress is white.]]

* Princess Sally Acorn of ''WesternAnimation/SonicSatAM'' media wears blue boots and vest. She's feminine, but strong, even giving (G-rated) cusses to Robotnik.

* ''Series/GameOfThrones'': In Season 1, Sansa is seen wearing a romantic ice blue gown. In Season 6, she switches back to the mainly blue clothing like her mother used to do, which underlines her coming back to the North and the Northern ways.

* In ''Series/MadMen'' this is the beauty-focused and traditional Betty Draper Francis's favored color along with white, given how it highlights her Grace Kelly-esque beauty, Teutonic coloring (light skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes). Not only does it serve a purpose in highlighting her looks, it also highlights her role as housewife and mother.
* Daenerys Targaryen from ''Series/GameOfThrones'' starts to prominently wear a heavily-blue outfit starting in the show's third season.
* In the ''[[Series/SpartacusBloodAndSand Spartacus series]]'', Lucretia's body slaves seems to be required to be clad in blue, as seen with Melitta and Naevia. The other women in the show regularly dressed in blue as well.

* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' has Hinata Hyuga of the Hyuga Clan and Mei Terumi, the fifth Mizukage. The former is a ShrinkingViolet who has [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair dark blue hair]] and wears navy blue pants. The latter is a flirtatious ChristmasCake in a blue dress.

* In the ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' fanfic ''FanFic/WalkingInCircles'', Evelyn Trevelyan is a [[BlueBlood noble-born]] mage whose personality can be summed up as kind, protective and motherly. Aside from being compared to flowers, Evelyn often wears blue to the point that when Solas needs to find her, he always look for a blue robe and dark hair. In Redcliffe future, Fen'Harel also dresses her up in a blue nightgown before seeking her out in the night. And his murals depict her in blue. Evelyn's personality later changes to a more negative interpretation of this trope, with her being engulfed in sadness and even icy ruthlessness as she becomes [[UnholyMatrimony Solas's partner]] [[spoiler: in his plan of changing (a.k.a destroying) the current world]].

** ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'': Invoked. Elinor, who resents Merida's tomboyish nature and wishes for her to be more ladylike, puts her in a tught turquoise silk dress as part of her royal attire before and during the contest. Merida doesn't take it well, preferring her darker and less restrictive dark blue dress. The end of the movie sees both of them in a dress of a similar shade, indicating that they've accepted each other's differences and similarities.

* Dorothy Gale from ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'' (an in [[Film/TheWizardOfOz the film adaptation]]) wears a blue and white gingham dress. This becomes a plot point in the book: as blue is the Munchkin color and white is only worn by witches, the Munchkins initially mistake her for a [[MistakenForTerrorist witch]], but a good one who intends to be friends with the Munchkins, when her house comes out of nowhere and flattens the Wicked Witch of the East. She's an empathic character who convinces all three of her TrueCompanions to pursue their dreams and goals, and is also a FriendToAllLivingThings – in short, a ladylike spirit, even if she is a farm girl.

* In ''Series/MadMen'' this is the Beauty focused and traditional Betty Draper Francis's favored color along with white, given how it highlights her Grace Kelly-esque beauty, Teutonic coloring (light skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes). Not only does it serve a purpose in highlighting her looks, it also highlights her role as housewife and mother.

* In ''Series/DoctorWho'', Clara Oswald, an introverted and lonely, but usually very compassionate and kind companion, is fond of wearing articles of clothing in various shades of blue. Given its sheer frequency throughout her entire run, it's probably her subconscious favourite colour. [[spoiler:Outside of the original Clara, this habit even extends to some of her time paradox spawned doubles in different eras, especially the Victorian governess one.]] Possibly a symbol of loss too, as she lost her mother in her teens, which affected her rather profoundly. She's also occassionally seen in a predominant red or green from time to time, reflecting other sides of her personality. When she wears blue, she's mostly quiet and thoughtful, green-clad Clara is an adventurer, pragmatist and tends to be crankier, and wearing red clothing often coincides with her showing a 'cheery romantic dreamer' streak.

* Constance and Queen Anne from to ''Series/TheMusketeers occasionally wear blue.

* While the many incarnations of ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda's'' titular Zelda have run a gamut of colors over the series, her ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast A Link to the Past]]'' incarnation dons a casual blue dress (though her princess attire is pink), and both her regal and traveling outfits in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Breath of the Wild]]'' are predominately blue (with the similarly blue {{Non Uniform Uniform}}s that Link and the other Champions wear stated in "The Champions' Ballad" to have been sewn by her). Furthermore, she is also the bearer of the Triforce of Wisdom in a lot of entries in the series, which is usually associated with blue.

** Of the villainess, the witch Icy of the [[LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine Dark Feminine]] type.
