Trusting the swatches? (Azazie dark navy/ink blue)

I got my bridal sample dress in ivory and it was a perfect match to the ivory swatch I got.

It's not navy but it's a good sign.

The navy blue swatch I got was a true navy in my opinion. Maybe you want more of a royal blue?

Did you try taking the swatches out into sunlight? Navy swatches are notoriously hard to look at indoors. Can you compare them to something else navy that you have already selected? This might be a little too sneaky, but can you take them to DB and compare to the marine?

I got Navy swatches as well and they didnt look black to me..... maybe you should order a sample dress for one of your BM's to try on and see how it looks that way.....

I will try again and take the swatches into daylight tomorrow....Daylight is a relative term in Seattle as it's nearly constantly cloudy and grey here between October through July.

@FutureRand, I looked at the Royal Blue but didn't like it. It was too bright for me. And it reminded me of my junior formal dress.

Remember to only look at the layer of fabric you want, all of the fabric swatches together make the color darker

I just had a navy sample dress from Azazie. It is a true navy blue and not black.

This thread was exactly what I needed!! I, too, thought my swatches were super dark! If the dresses are going to look black unless in direct sunlight, these might not be my best fit in a dimly lit church!
