Navy blue is a very dark shade of the color blue which almost appears as black. Navy blue got its name from the dark blue (contrasted with white) worn by officers in the British Royal Navy since 1748 and subsequently adopted by other navies around the world.
When this color, taken from the usual color of the uniforms of sailors, originally came into use in the early 19th century, it was initially called marine blue, but the name of the color soon changed to navy blue.
The first recorded use of Navy blue as a color name in English was in 1840.
Quote from Wikipedia
So as described above, navy blue atau biasa kita sebut biru dongker adalah another shades of blue tapi lebih mengarah ke hitam. Karena tampilan warnanya yang gelap, so kesan yang bisa ditampilkan dari biru dongker lebih banyak ke casual formal.
