Color Difference

What's the difference btwn white and diamond white?? I keep hearing that color and to me I would think it's a silverish but then someone told me that it's an ivory.. I'm curious... Thanks

Re: Color Difference

Diamond white is a little 'softer that regular white'. It's kind of hard to explain but it's not off white or ivory its still white but not a bright. Usually a dress comes in diamond whit when the work on it is done in crystal.. this way the refection of the crystal work is emphasized more..
Hope this helped.

One of the bridal salons told me that diamond white is the most sold color in bridal gowns they say regular white doesn't look as good on people with fair skin.

Re: Color Difference

white is the stark white, the whitest white you can get, diamond white is a softer white.

Re: Color Difference

I agree white is stark white, the diamond white is softer white, then ivory is well ivory.

Re: Color Difference

yup it's softer. Pure white can be very harsh.

I was told this too!
My FMIL explained it as one being a brighter white...if that even helps
