I see it as blue and black, my mom sees it as white and gold Laughing
Very interesting, how our brains see colours differently from one person to another based on the sunlight.

EDIT: So it was posted already... Laughing well, it's going to be easier to find an answer here. Laughing

haha how I see it, I mean other than talking about it in the epic thread and seeing 4000 posts of it on facebook for some reason I don't get the sensationalism of it, I don't see why its a HUGE deal? no one on the internet has seen optical illusions before?

Same here.
It's messing with my brain. In a good way though.
Usually I need drugs for the same effect.

The thing is: the camera that took the picture was utterly shit and completely distorted the colours. THAT is why there's two ways to see it. It overexposed the dress so badly, that the blue becomes near-white and the black actually becomes brown-ish.

And yes, you can use Photoshop to make it both black/blue and gold/white but only the black/blue adjustment will see the background turn to a normal shade. The gold/white edit will see the background even more exposed.

Amazons original pic was taken with shitty lighting, like really dark apparently according to them Smile The crappy image processing as well contributes.

The garment is the colour GOLD and has WHITE material to go with it Very Happy

Everyone who does see black and blue should go to fucking specsavers Razz

Haha, this is curious indeed.
I've just observed all the pics of this dress, even the artificially altered ones/darkened with some added blue tint, and I still see white and gold every single time. Oh well Very Happy

Kinda scary that I share the same vision as KC though Very Happy <3

this is the greatest optical illusion / visual phenomena i have ever seen.

i myself see it washed out black and washed out blue (not inky black/blue), but apparently majority see it white/gold.

for some people appearance changed after a while. for other people this picture helped to see the "other side" or "proper way" Very Happy



not sure if people who initially saw it black/blue change it to seeing it white/gold.
