BmB February 27, 2015 at 3:02 PM UTC

Ikr. My Science teacher was explaining it today, but I arrives late, so I didn't get all of it or fully understand. It has something to do with light reflection and how your eyes work.

Tarheelkiwi February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

Looks like blue and gold

Notalgicular February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

It was blue and black 2 hours ago, I saw it gold and white for 1 minute and its blue and black now o.o

Pelpelajax February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

White and gold.

SWEET_Johny February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

The actual color is blue and black. If you see white and gold, you need to get your eyes checked.

Sem February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

Saw the dress on another site. it was blue and black when I saw it for the first time, I then scrolled down. Scrolled up and then it was white and gold. I looked at the picture for like 5 minutes to see  if it was a gif. It was not. -.-

EDIT: When I saw this thread for the first time it was blue and black, after I posted my post I went back to the first page and it changed to gold and white. .-.

now it is blue and black again

StewieFG February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

Blue and black.. I don't get that are you guys joking or you really see it white and gold.. How xD I swear to god it's blue and black.

Tempus February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

I believe it's because of the white balance and what you best see in. Night owls, and people who don't use lights as often - ie, people who play games or such at late night, with only their computer as light are much more likely to see it as its "correct color". I am more of a day person, though not a morning person, and I play with at least one light on. I'm more inclined to see it as white and gold, though I've seen it as both.

Jolieve February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

Blue.... and black. BLUE... and BLACK. BLUE and BLACK.
BLUE AND BLACK.

But seriously, this is driving me crazy. :l

ViolentBoo February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

Blue and brown?

Lucifist February 27, 2015 at 4:02 PM UTC

I found out, if you look at it in the dark, it's going to be Gold and White, if you look at it where there is light, then it's blue and black.

PictureFrames February 27, 2015 at 5:02 PM UTC

It has something to do with lighting, and whatnot. (Apparently) I have no idea. I saw blue and black earlier, but on your picture it's white and gold.

Trexychan February 27, 2015 at 5:02 PM UTC

Yeah, a friend showed me this. It was blue and black for me earlier, now when I see your pic its white and gold. o.o

faht February 27, 2015 at 5:02 PM UTC

It's blue and black

Lavish February 27, 2015 at 5:02 PM UTC

I saw it as white and gold for a few seconds and then it changed to black and blue...

Deven February 27, 2015 at 5:02 PM UTC

It's a f'n rainbow
What I'm pretty sure is going on here is they took the picture and released 2 versions one that had the hue and saturation changed and one that is unedited and that it's just a ruse and there laughing as every year me is tripping balls

Glitchaye February 27, 2015 at 6:02 PM UTC

fuck no not that dress

Deven February 27, 2015 at 6:02 PM UTC


Look at the background and you will see its just 2 edited pictures

Dyspa February 27, 2015 at 6:02 PM UTC

Guys, the BBC already said it's Blue and Black, I knew it.
WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU SEE WHITE AND GOLD?
That's gonna happen only if you're high.


Also, this color changing is related with the light going throught the dress and from the angle you see it. ^.^

alexanderjoe February 27, 2015 at 6:02 PM UTC

I do I have my own reasoning
Blue and Black - You are depressed or sad about something.
Gold and White - You are happy or in a good mood.

Goodnighht February 27, 2015 at 6:02 PM UTC

my brain hurts...

FrostedCupcakez February 27, 2015 at 7:02 PM UTC

Oh my lord... This dress is everywhere.. http://www.wired.com/2015/02/science-one-agrees-color-dress/

It's actually blue and black by the way, people who see it as white and gold, their retinas just take a little more time to sort out the colours. So if you stare at it long enough, it most likely will turn blue. I can see both >:)

Myv February 27, 2015 at 7:02 PM UTC

Not the forums lel

White and gold for me.

The way the camera took it means that people have different perceptions on the dress due to their eye colour and vision. 

It's amazing.

RefuseToSink February 27, 2015 at 7:02 PM UTC

Last night it was all over twitter, my entire timeline was filled with people arguing about it. One of my teachers even brought it up for discussion during class today. It's black and blue, why is this such a huge debate? o.o

Hacktivism February 27, 2015 at 7:02 PM UTC

I honestly don't understand how someone could see blue in this picture :3
It's gold and white.

ImRaging February 27, 2015 at 8:02 PM UTC

Rainbow...

Emmaye February 27, 2015 at 9:02 PM UTC

Blue and black for me.

BoldAndBrash February 27, 2015 at 9:02 PM UTC

How to find out what the real colors are:

Step 1: Go to Photoshop.

Step 2: Click Color Selector Thing

Step 3: The real colors are blue and black.

(I saw white and gold, my brother tested it on Photoshop.)

Pavlo February 27, 2015 at 9:02 PM UTC

Please......not here......every single damn thing I've seen on the internet in the past 12 hours is that dress...I'm getting sooooo sick of this.....pleaaassseeeee

I know right!!! But it's gold and white.

MangoSmoothie_ February 27, 2015 at 10:02 PM UTC

For me, when I put my phone on an angle its blue and black

But when I look directly at it, its white and gold

_Jupiter February 27, 2015 at 11:02 PM UTC

Oh my god......I have seen this too much.......it's blue and black

Spoookeh February 27, 2015 at 11:02 PM UTC

Used to be blue and gold, but now I look at it here on the forums, it's white and gold...

Emmaye February 28, 2015 at 1:02 AM UTC

What? Now I see white and gold...

IviFetita February 28, 2015 at 1:02 AM UTC

I only can see white and gold, I try to see it in another way but I just can see white and gold. ;-;

Beginnus February 28, 2015 at 1:02 AM UTC

White and gold... i think?

Jahaj February 28, 2015 at 1:02 AM UTC

If you stare at the bottom of the dress, you can start seeing a little blue if you normally see white and gold.

toketrain February 28, 2015 at 1:02 AM UTC

first saw it as white and gold, then blue and black, then i saw it as what the actual dress is i believe: a dark brown and lavender, somewhere in between white/gold and blue/black. 
if you go into photoshop and select the colors of the dress, you get the brown/lavender. its freaky. especially if you see it as white/gold

lulle265 February 28, 2015 at 2:02 AM UTC

For me I see blue and black. The person I believe who first posted it says that it is actually white and gold in real life, but looks black and blue for some other people due to bad lighting. The view of the colours may also change depending on your mood. Using paint, one can easily find that it is blue and black in the photo, but once again it is due to bad lighting.

Pavlo February 28, 2015 at 2:02 AM UTC

75% of people see it as White and Gold. 25% see it as black and blue. The actual color of the dress in reality is black and blue, however our brain sees the dress differently.

chaibrit1 February 28, 2015 at 2:02 AM UTC

When I looked at it at first it was white & gold, however after I turned my brightness up all the way on my phone, it was black and blue.?¿ But now when I look at it, I see it both ways. It just takes a few seconds of staring at the picture for it to turn either black & blue/white & gold.

TheMasterClock February 28, 2015 at 2:02 AM UTC

It looks like white and gold but looks more like blue and gold

AutoHit February 28, 2015 at 4:02 AM UTC

White and gold. I don't know how this works, but it really looks like white and gold.

FrozenSolstice March 1, 2015 at 1:03 AM UTC

Um. It's red and green for me. I really need to get my eyes checked...

SnowSX3 March 1, 2015 at 2:03 AM UTC

I swear every time I see this picture it changes colours...

_Mx_ March 1, 2015 at 2:03 AM UTC

What for me its like clearly blue and black

Trexychan March 1, 2015 at 2:03 AM UTC

Wait, so does this mean my skin is white and gold to some people?

Eklip_Z March 1, 2015 at 3:03 AM UTC

This looks like light blue and gold to me. I have no idea how you guys are getting blue and black ect.

Eklip_Z March 1, 2015 at 3:03 AM UTC

This looks like light blue and gold to me. I have no idea how you guys are getting blue and black ect.
After looking at it a bit more, looks like a browny gold.

Pavlo March 1, 2015 at 3:03 AM UTC

Wait, so does this mean my skin is white and gold to some people?
no, its just a thing with that exact photo of the dress that people see differently. In other pics everyone sees blue and black

Eklip_Z March 1, 2015 at 3:03 AM UTC

Okay after searching this xD. Found this picture. On the left shows white and gold, on the right shows blue and black and in the middle is the original which is to me light blue and browny gold.


Tarheelkiwi March 1, 2015 at 3:03 AM UTC

Looking at the original picture, it still hasn't changed, blue and gold.  And who came up with this?

Sevoo March 1, 2015 at 4:03 AM UTC

Apparently, its because of women and men having different eyes, and to me its white and gold.

Pavlo March 1, 2015 at 4:03 AM UTC

Its not womens and mens eyes. its this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AskAQwOBvhc

FrozenSolstice March 1, 2015 at 4:03 AM UTC

Yeah, can't be gender.
Because I see green and red...

lithp March 1, 2015 at 2:03 PM UTC

White and Gold

ParthDarthVader March 1, 2015 at 5:03 PM UTC

Theres actually any explanation to why some people see blue and black and others white and gold, and it has to do with the lighting.

It's called Photoshop

_Jupiter March 1, 2015 at 7:03 PM UTC

Argh my entire facebook timeline is filled with my friends arguing about this ;-;

MilkshakesMC March 1, 2015 at 7:03 PM UTC

MilkshakesMC March 1, 2015 at 7:03 PM UTC

skytheboiica March 1, 2015 at 10:03 PM UTC

This is what I think about it.

Porkyyy March 1, 2015 at 11:03 PM UTC

My friend showed this to me yesterday, and at first glance it looked white and gold to me. I kept looking at it and it just turns out that the lighting was very, very high, which is why it appears to be white and gold.

The dress really is blue and black though. :P

source_route March 2, 2015 at 12:03 AM UTC
