Blueish white and copper when I look at it normally. Blue and black when I squint my eyes or look at it in my peripheral vision

Yes I know it's blue and black in real life and that the first picture looks different because of the lighting

This dress is destroying my sanity! I saw first saw it when it came up on my facebook feed a couple days ago and it was white and gold. When I looked at the picture in the op of thread yesterday it was blue and black. I figured maybe it was the websites or slightly different pictures or something.

Saw it on my facebook feed again this morning and it was white and gold, so I came back to look at the op here.......and it's white and gold now! I don't understand what's going on!

It isn't? I alway thought the new ones were a deeper red than the old ones.

I see light blue/brown, too but if I were told it was one or the other I would pick white/gold. I wonder if it's a gender thing.

The new goggles also do nothing.

Oh yeah I forgot about that one:



The blue and green stripes are actually the same colour.

EDIT: Novella mentions the spinning girl illusion too, is he reading my posts?

I can't see it as anything other than blue and black...if I stare at it long enough I can *kind of* trick myself into seeing a bit of gold, but not white.

For me it's 100% down to how rested my eyes are. It's ALWAYS blue & black in the morning when I wake up and am refreshed.

It ALWAYS turns white after I've spent a few hours at work staring at a monitor or check back again late at night after a day of eye strain.

Yesterday for about a 100th of a second, it was black and blue. Before and since it is white and gold. So strange.

Lmao.. I have an infant son and he has some kind of lavender stuff in his baths, as well as a relaxing baby massage with some lavender lotion before bed so it has become a more easily recognizable hue to me.. I regret nothing!
