Hello
Please could any on who owns a bleu obscure tell me what shade of blue it is. In some pictures it looks dark navy, some almost petrol blue. I'm really wanting to buy my
first Balenciaga but am desperate not to make a mistake with the colour.

Thank you

Hi, Indoors Bleu Obscure can look very dark navy blue almost black but In bright light, sunlight or camera flash the blue can really be seen. It is a deep blue. It is a very beautiful, versatile and practical shade of blue. I would definitely recommend it. I love black bags but this is definitely on my must have list too. :smile:

I've always thought that 'Bleu Obscure' translated to 'hidden blue' or 'concealed blue' meaning that the bag is blue but not so obvious and only revealed in light.

There are two threads here on the purse forum with pictures of the Bleu Obscure.

Very complete reply by MissWorld.
I have a Bleu Obscure Velo and I absolutely adore it!!
The color is a very dark (navy) blue.
It's very easy to combine, can be used both in Summer and Winter.
And I have to say I specially love to use it in Summer, gives some edge to my outfits ;)
