Rules of Rarity is the fourth song of season five of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, featured in the fourteenth episode Canterlot Boutique. In this song, similar to Art of the Dress, Rarity sings of her philosophy of putting time, love, and couture into all of her dresses, but becomes distressed when she is limited to making only copies of the Princess Dress.

Rarity assembling a special Princess Dress S5E14
[Rarity]
The rules of Rarity, guaranteed quality
This I can assure
For each and every dress
I vow to give finesse
With time, love, and couture
My favorite moment's when a pony sees it
That special gown that she just adores
That pony's now in style
My hard work's all worthwhile
Oh, yes, it makes my heart
My heart just soar
[instrumental]
[Rarity]
The rules of Rarity, just a parody
No dress here's unique
The panels all the same
Each colored windowpane
I fashion only makes me want to shriek!
[sighs]
Oh, to create would give me elation
To feel once again some inspiration
Come on now, Rarity
Give me some clarity
Time for your couture love to rule
The rules of Rarity, extra TLC
This feels more sublime
Soon now, they will see how good these can be
With a little extra shine
The rules of Rarity, guaranteed quality
All can see it's true
These new gems add such flair
Their beauty can't compare
This old style suddenly gleams anew
[humming]

The rules of Rarity
Once stood for something
But now it feels just like some factory
Now every dress I make
With every flaw and mistake
Oh, how it makes my heart
My heart just break
