"O vestido é colorido."

Translation: The dress is colorful.

Why not "the dress is coloured"?? It's in the translation.

Maybe the sentence refers to emphasizing the "nice colors" and not that it's simply coloured. So you would say colorful and not colored

"the dress is colored" isn't a phrase that we'd use....it sounds clumsy to a native ear.

That should be accepted..
