What color is the dress?

I'd be interested to read a technical explanation of what's going on here and why some people recognize the "true" colors faster than others. In my household, two of us saw white & gold first, but then saw blue & black after about 10 minutes; one person saw blue & black from the start; and one person saw white & gold and still only sees white & gold a couple of hours later.

What color is the dress?

When this thread was started, I had no clue what the OP was talking about since there's no picture in the post.

But after seeing it, it's light blue and gold.

What color is the dress?

This is the dumbest thing in the entire world.

Blue and black.
#14

What color is the dress?

I'm the only one who sees it as white (with a tint of blue) and gold
#15

What color is the dress?

It's actually not the dumbest thing. It's a fascinating example of how we don't all see colors the same.

99% of the time it's been blue and black, but I've seen it gold and white twice.

What color is the dress?

When I saw it, there were three dresses shown, so it was no fun.
Not dumb at all. I taught an entire lesson plan on how we see color. The students were fascinated.

I went back and looked at the original single dress. I saw gold and pale blue.

What color is the dress?

I see pale blue and gold. I don't know how anyone gets black from that which is crazy. Does that mean that when I wear black, some people see me as wearing gold?

What color is the dress?

I always saw blue. I first saw the black then I wasn't 100% sure if it was black or brown or bronze. It never really looked gold there. I see black again today.

And buzzfeed's poll had 71% seeing the white and gold to only 29% black and blue. So, it depends on who you personally spoke to or what you looked at.

What color is the dress?

It's blue and black. The original picture's color levels were intentionally manipulated.

#24

What color is the dress?

So you really are seeing white and gold...in the first pic because the color levels were tampered with, but in reality the dress is blue and black.
