I saw this on my phone about an hour ago, and I swore up and down it was white and gold. But I looked at this picture on the computer and let my eyes go unfocused and it changed to blue and black as I watched it.
looks black and blue with some yellow light making the black look less black at the top. I see a bit of the gold until I look at the stripes then I realize its actually black. No Idea where you guys are getting the white from though.

I find this all kind of confusing. I can understand how people think parts of the dress look gold due to the bad lighting, because they do. But wasn't the bad lighting so obvious that you'd just assume it's black that looks like it's faded to a warm grey?
And white? The top right of the image with the blown highlights is white. How anyone can equate that to the dress color is beyond me.

If I change the angle of my screen when looking at the original pic it changes.
Looking from an above angle, it's a whitish blue and a kind of goldish brown.
Looking from below, it's a royal blue and a browny black (like asian hair)
When looking at it straight on, I see a purplish light lavender color with an olive green brown.
So I saw this on my FB feed when I was dead tired, laying in bed, about to go to sleep. It was white gold.
I slept for a couple hours and then my brain decided it wasn't sleeping time anymore and Im wide awake. Now it's blue and gold using the same picture I saw on FB earlier.
I don't think it's trolling at all. I think it's a fascinating display on how people view colour.
Yup. When I first looked at the picture I saw white and gold, looked at the same picture a few minutes later and all I can see since then is blue and black.
Regardless of what colour it actually is, it is photographed in a manner that it appears white/gold. The strong backlight implies we're seeing it in shade, and natural shade is blue-tinted.
I see light blue and gold but I've had cataract surgery and back in the day, I did a lot of very good drugs. From that I came to the conclusion that our brain interprets what it sees in order to make some sense to this world.
One difference that can be explained it the various monitors and their settings that we are looking at the picture with. I've looked at it with both my calibrated monitors and my TV and it's always the same.
People forget that it will also depend on your screen or monitor. I showed a few co-workers the difference between this image in an older monitor on one desk and a new fancy dell screen. The dell screen, the new one showed a light blue with gold, the old one showed a white with a pretty dark gold, looking almost blackish.

This is crazy. It is definitively blue and black. And not light blue either. Like a royal blue.
I wonder if eye color is correlated to what you see, as blue eyes are supposed to be more sensitive to light (and I have blue eyes).
