Not a trick question, just genuinely what colour would you say this is?

They must be colour blind.
No way is that any shade of purple imo

Sosostressedandanxious · 11/06/2025 23:05

Purple!
No way!
I thought it looked brown.
Never purple!

Angrymum22 · 11/06/2025 23:06

Seller may be colour blind or has sent the wrong item.
It could be grey, black, green or even navy blue.
Maybe they had two of the same item in different colours and packed the wrong colour.

ShowOfHands · 11/06/2025 23:07

Did it look purple in the photos on Vinted?

No I’ve just asked them and they said it’s the right top, and looks purple in daylight?

In this photo it looks grey

MaryGreenhill · 11/06/2025 23:10

Grey

murasaki · 11/06/2025 23:11

Grey/brown. It looks very similar to I'm wearing.

BertieBotts · 11/06/2025 23:12

It looks grey, but it's hard to tell colours of clothing from photos because phone cameras try to autocorrect the white balance and this is usually calibrated for portraits and landscapes and not much else - so particularly under artificial light, you'll frequently get funny colour results for interiors and fabrics especially.

However if it looks grey to you IRL it's probably nothing to do with any camera glitch and just the seller being weird.

ilovemyhamster · 11/06/2025 23:14

Khaki

Eh?? They need to go to Specsavers

McCartneyOnTheHeath · 11/06/2025 23:19

This happened to me once on eBay! Thought I was buying a purple top, a brown one arrived. I queried it with the seller and she got huffy and said she'd asked her friend who was a fashion designer and it was definitely purple. 🤪😂
