How do you pronounce Ombre???

I think its like the SA said, ohm-bray.

Ombre
n. A French term meaning "shaded." Usually a multicolored stripe, with colors graduating from light to dark. The color effect is woven into the fabric. Generally produced by arranging different tones in the warp.

If pronounced the French way, it would be OHM-bruh.

Ditto...that's how Canadians, in general, would pronounce it whether from French or non-French speaking provinces.

Take care,
