Really, Pip and Ken? Thanks for the feedback because I love the pair Jo W is wearing and I don't want to order the wrong colour because obviously no returns on Vinted....

I'd say they're both indigo and hers are lighter blue.
If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

That looks like the Jo Whiley ones to me.

I agree. The second pair is lighter (or in different light), but they're also more of a uniform colour, whereas hers are more, not distressed, but something that isn't a block of uniform colour

Yes, hers are that nice sort of liney denim. I cannot articulate what I mean.

Chambray is much thinner than denim. I think you'd need to try them on - I wouldn't take a Vinted gamble unless you could face selling them on if they're not right!

I think they’re the ASOS ones in mid wash denim. The Vinted ones are clearly not mid wash.

Thank you all very much for answering me on this. I emailed Carhartt and they said the model and colour are these;

I'm not entirely sure that's right- do you? The Jo Whiley ones I posted look a slightly different colour to me, or have I gone colour blind?

They look the same as the Jo W ones.

I'd say they're the same. There will be camera/light differences, but they're definitely closer than the other ones.

I don't think the company would give you the exact colour and model unless they knew for sure. We quite often get asked which pieces celebs are wearing and if we're not sure we would say "it looks like they're wearing...."

Thank you. I do wonder whether I'm slightly colour blind at times! I think you're right, emma, it's just that last week a carhartt sales assistant in a shop told me that the exact colour wasn't available on the website either.
Thank you again everyone.

i'd really like this dress, and i nearly bought it yesterday except for the fact that I wouldn't be able to try it on,standing upI think it could suit me as I have one in black that is almost identical except with a detachable belt. also have a similar (shorter)one in what I call Greek Blue. nothing in navy though, which is now a need-I have the model's height or boobs, though

That’s lovely and classy Ella. I saw on another post that you are going through it with your health and I’m so sorry but this is a lovely piece
