So you are not settled on what color you want? Is it possible that you just want to look like the guys in the picture?

Who cares what the color actually is? Take the photo that best reflects the color you want.

There is no consistent way of naming colours, therefore there is no way we can answer your question. It should be quite easy to find a washed-out navy with almost indigo sheen of this type, however.

I can't tell if it's the sunlight here, but it looks like a mohair fabric that's giving it the sheen. I'd say it's appropriate in all circumstances.

Changes on the colour of the sunlight. The type of bulbs if indoor. Then of course how accurate is your colour vision?

Asking somebody to judge a colour off an internet image that may or may not have been colour corrected in the first place but is likely being shown on less then perfect colour monitors isn't a way to get an exact anything.

Why not email the team and ask what the offical colour is? That suit isn't azzuro. The shirts might be.

isn't that midnight blue?

i've also seen the title ' iridescent' blue, but i think that gives off a more blue/brown hue.

Midnight blue should be a lot darker...

The suits look nice and would be great for an interview, can be fun for wearing out; but I don't think I'd recommend that shirt/tie combo with the suit.
