Rarity returns to Ponyville a broken mess of a mare. Her snotty Canterlot fashion friends have informed her that white is unfashionable to wear after the end of summer! Weeping, she recounts her sad tale to the unsympathetic Cranky Doodle Donkey, who makes an offhanded comment that kicks her fashion mania into top speed: what if she simply dyes all of her white clothes so they're fashionable again?

Even better, Rarity decides, what if she dyes all of the white ponies so they're fashionable, too?

Follow Rarity as she leaves a trail of colorful mayhem behind her, and see if her friends can talk her down from the sequined ledge of madness she's teetering on!
