I've been seeing it as white and gold since this thead was made, but now I'm seeing it as blue and black.

I first looked at this thread on mobile (hadn't heard about the dress before) and it was Black and Blue, I'm now on my laptop and I see White and Gold. Presumably the different amount of backlight on the devices has played a part in how my brain perceives it?

White and gold for me no matter how many times I see it, both here and on other sites I've seen it.

I can only see it as white and gold, although I am colour blind. My wife says Blue and black.

Dress actually looks (a faded) blue and gold to me. I've seen a fair few people say it's clearly White but it looks nothing like White to me at all. Got me worried about the state of my eyesight when it comes to colours :dread:

...How the strawberry float does anyone see that as anything other than blue and black?

Get the strawberry float out of here with your white and gold alchemy.

Everyone at work is saying white & gold but i think they are blind.


Wouldn't they just see black?

Itt's blue/purple and brown or blue and gold. Do some people have really poorly calibrated monitors or something?

I just managed to magic eye this gooseberry fool and make it go from white/gold to blue/black and back by slightly squinting

Love how newsnight covered this, their running order was "ISIS executioner, ooh an optical illusion, Putin's political rival found dead" :lol:

I can't see how anyone is seeing black and blue, it's not even close.
