We got the indigo (labeled chateau) color and the colors are true to the picture. We love the effect of the stripes. However, the curtains look more opaque in the picture but they let light in but still provide a little privacy. Probably not something you want for your bedroom but we are using them in our living room and dining room. They look great! Sidenote: the pictures where you see the light coming through were during the day and the ones where no light comes through are from night.
