If you frequent Tumblr, then you've already got undyingly strong opinions of it, but for those who haven't...

What colors are this dress? You think you know? Keep looking.

OMG... please don't start this here!!!!

Purple and brown. Shade are not colours.

edit - So it appears that people see white and gold or blue and black.

I see no white or black in that pic. Gold is just metallic brown and that blue is more like purple to me. Are people really seeing it differently?

 

[Berd]

White and gold?! How is this everywhere!?

 

[RicardoRix]

I see blue and very dark brown (if not black). That's not purple, and certainly not white or gold.

I think I'm missing something - what exactly is the point of this?

Edit: Never mind - I saw the video about this on ASAPscience

 

[FailCuber]

Lol I saw this everywhere today. It looks like blue and black to me but my brother said it looks like gold and white.

 

[Berd]

Definitely white and gold for me.

 

[TDM]

I think it's blue and black, but my mum thinks it's white and gold and there's no way it could possibly be blue or black. If only I could change my vote on the poll to the last option...

I think I remember seeing this years ago; why has it suddenly come up again?

 

[deKassu]

You can go home now.

Yeah, it's definitely white and gold.

 

[FailCuber]

Yeah, it's definitely white and gold.

lol it's clearly black and blue for me. I used a image edit programe and it tells me that it's blue and black.

 

[CiaranBeahan]

come on people, it's obviously black and blue!
This already got onto the news in my country.

same here.

No matter how you see it, the dress is literally blue and black. There are other pictures that show that. There's probably a bunch of stuff that happened today that was missed by the general public.

It's a cool pic, but it really isn't important enough for the internet to care.

 

[~Adam~]

I saw it as lilac and brown until I saw it transition to BLUE and BLACK, now I can't see it any other way.

The reason why people see it differently is due to light receptors in the eye and how the brain chooses to interpret the information. You should fall into one of two camps: White and gold, or blue and black. The problem I have is I clearly see blue and gold :/

Is it like a dark rust gold? That's what I see too, but I could skew it as "black" if I'm not really caring.

As do I. Go down and look at the individual pixels. It's a light blue and a brownish gold. Exactly what I first saw, and have always seen since.

To me, the black looks gold because of the light. I know it looks gold, but it's like it should be black...
