The washes look totally different. The Huttons are made out of Japanese denim and the dark paris wash looks much darker. It's my holy grail wash. But on the Ambers the dark paris wash looks lighter. It's okay, but it's not as dark and deep and seems a little more casual. </p> <p>I don't think I've seen the other two washes you've listed. If I did, I don't recall. I have been looking for the Ambers in a darker wash. In early spring, they did offer such a wash on revolve - can't remember the name of it. (For some reason I think "ink" was in the name... but I could be misremembering... I remember the reviews said that the wash was blue, but looked nearly black). I do remember they sold out ultra-quickly, before I had a chance to get my own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72868 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:17:21 +0000 Angie 72868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for chiming in despite your dubious connections, Taylor. </p> <p>Club Monaco, although not premium, is a brilliant fit for gals with slim hips and thighs. Marianne will vouch for this too, I think? I took San there yesterday and she got herself a pair of grey skinnies – KILLER. </p> <p>Taylor, Diesel denim is one the slimmest fits I’ve seen in the industry. But you need a Diesel store. They have one in SF if you are ever in that neck of the woods. April, try Diesel too.</p> <p>You have LOTS to work with :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72792 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 05:02:17 +0000 taylor 72792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April,</p> <p>Don't order these until you try a pair on...if you can. You really need to try *several different labels* to find the ones that love your body style. What works for one body type does not work for another.</p> <p>I love the look of 7', however the 2 pair I have bought in the past are too short in the rise....I have never had this problem ever before...I just decided these aren't for my body type...and they don't run as long in the length for me because I wear heels.</p> <p>I would like to try a pair of Diesel, because Angie say's they work for her, they may work for me, but I haven't seen any?:(<br /> Take your time to try them on...if your going to spend premium dollars...be sure you get the premium fit!!:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72790 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 04:50:20 +0000 marianne 72790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April, I actually like the dark paris wash - I am biased because I have a different COH style in that wash, and I don't think that it's too dressy or less versatile. I think it's heavier denim. Sounds like you're going to explore other brands anyway </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72748 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 02:08:18 +0000 April 72748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Taylor -- another voice of experience is always appreciated! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72731 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 01:08:59 +0000 taylor 72731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like wash #3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72728 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 01:05:39 +0000 taylor 72728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh ladies ,sorry I am out of town and wireless is spotty here!!</p> <p>I am a True Religion girl...I love them... about 10 pair..hands down my fav's...the best fit for me...I am 5'4 and am very slim through the hips and thighs...beware they run slim!! hands down best fit for the slim legged...like yourself.</p> <p>Hudsons also good</p> <p>DVB also a fav.</p> <p>Sorry I missed this:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72507 Mon, 15 Jun 2009 03:50:43 +0000 Ana 72507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I own the COH Elsons in New Pacific. It's a great wash--works for both smart and more casual looks. I have seen the Dark Paris in person, and I think it's nice too, but not as versatile, I think. It seems quite smart to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72353 Sun, 14 Jun 2009 03:01:18 +0000 Angie 72353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taylor, care to chime in? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72303 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 23:51:37 +0000 April 72303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So helpful, ladies -- thank you. </p> <p>Yes, Angie, I love my R&#38;S high-waisted pinstripe jeans. The size 23s fit great (though their straight legs in the same size were too small to a comic degree -- go figure) and create curves. They are dramatic flares, hemmed for heels, though, and what I need is a more everyday jean.</p> <p>Lesley -- I did think the Dark Paris had more of a deep gray blue-black tone, thanks for confirming their essential DARKness. NP sounds like what I need.</p> <p>Anyone else care to chime in before I hold my breath and jump off the bridge of expensive denim? (My R&#38;S jeans came via an amazing sale Tanya discovered, and were a risk-free $23...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72301 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 23:37:51 +0000 lwc 72301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I own the COH Kellys in New Pacific, and I love the wash. I purchased the Dark Paris wash too, but returned it to focus on other summer wardrobe acquisitions. I would consider the Dark Paris wash for Fall/Winter because...well...it's, ummm, really DARK. I think that you'll be happy with the NP wash, and you'll wear them immediately without hesitation. And the wash will look great year round. </p> <p>I had my Kellys hemmed for flats and sneakers. Maybe I'll get the Ambers next to wear with heels. Hmmmm... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72286 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 21:12:45 +0000 Angie 72286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've seen them all, April!</p> <p>The New Pacific gets my vote and were you thinking or ordering a size 24? That would be my guess and I hope they aren’t too big. I’ve found that the COH Amber size 25 runs bigger then 7’s, Paige, Marc Jacobs and Diesel (the rest of my denim collection in the same size). I don’t mind that they are a little roomier though and perhaps you’ll like them that way too. </p> <p>You and Taylor are a similar size and body type and perhaps she’ll chime in with which premium denim jeans brands she wears. I think it might be True Religion? I’d also consider the Rich &#38; Skinny. Very good on a non-curvy body. Those will be my next denim investment when I need new jeans. </p> <p>Taylor! yoooohooo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/coh-ambers-question-on-washes#post-72267 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 17:48:56 +0000 April 72267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am finally getting ready to order some COH Amber jeans, and since many of you seem to have them, I have a question about the colors/rinses/washes available. I would like them very dark and with not much distressing or whiskering or fading.</p> <p>The dark ones seem to be New Pacific :<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3053412/0~2376780~6009391~6009808~6009811~6012045?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6012045&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....5&#038;P=1</a></p> <p>Dark Paris:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2925538/0~2376780~6009391~6009808~6009811~6012045?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6012045&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....5&#038;P=1</a></p> <p>and Tempest:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3024749/0~2376780~6009391~6009808~6009811~6012045?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6012045&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....5&#038;P=1</a></p> <p>Anyone have one of these washes and care to comment?
