'Fancy' is a term used to modify the colour of a diamond, which is not white. Fancy applies to all coloured diamonds, the most common of which is fancy yellow. Be aware, however, that naturally fancy coloured stones are more rare than other diamonds. There are some applications of 'treatments' which can highlight a stone's colour, and sometimes these treated stones are sold as fancy coloured diamonds. Any treated diamond which enhances its colour should be labeled as 'treated', and will cost much less than a naturally fancy coloured diamond. A certified gemologist will help you determine how a fancy diamond obtained its colour. You can read more about fancy colour diamonds, below.
