Yes. The people who see white and gold must not register the yellow indoor light of the picture and are probably very outdoorsy people.
I've actually experienced the perceptual shift from blue and black to white and gold. The moment was fleeting, but definitely registered white and gold. And then back to blue and black, and I've never been able to replicate the shift.

The actual dress was in fact blue and black.
those color illusions always wreck my brain

You can literally sample the rgb values and see it's blue and black
Edit: am I part of the joke here??? It's clearly blue and black...
It's very clearly white and gold.

color constancy was not "first investigated" just ten years ago.

What is global illumination from sky lighting again ??

I'm still convinced this is the biggest troll. It's clearly white and gold
Same, I always assume the ppl. Saying it's black and blue are trolling me.

This literally clears up nothing for me and I'm about to lose it. It's still fucking blue and black

You’re good. It’s black and blue. At a pinch, maybe blue and black.

Sorry but it's white and gold. The white only gets a blue hue due to the ambient lighting.
And it never is black!

wrote last edited by [email protected]if you're in a room with yellow lighting, then the "black" actually looks black. but if the lighting in the room is blue, then the "black" looks yellow. it's the different surrounding colors that makes one certain color look like 2 different colors

wrote last edited by [email protected]Hm, this is interesting - I am indeed "outdoorsy" and could only see "white and gold in shadow". I think this might also be because of the highlight on the right suggesting that it's daylight all around and the dress is in deep shadow, and the blue color is also highly reminiscent of "white cloth in deep shadow". This XKCD helped me clear up the confusion and now if I squint I can see both color schemes:

If this "viral dress debate" has taught me anything is that you can claim whatever bullshit online and bunch of people will believe it. Post an orange and claim it's blue even though it's clearly orange and there will be a percentage of idiots who will believe that the orange is blue because someone said so. And we'll have virale debate about a fucking orange.
Of course there are vision conditions like daltonism and we have variances in perceptions of color gradients, but white and gold doesn't suddenly become blue and black...
I'm curious which color you perceive?

The objective fact is…it is a blue and black dress. Other photos of the same dress show that.
But I cannot, for the life of me, see how anyone can possibly get that from this photo. Sample the RGB values all you want and it clearly is not black in this photo. The exposure and white balance have messed around with it so much it is incomprehensible to me how anyone can see it as blue and black.

It doesn't matter. This phenomenon can be explained by something called color constancy.
I remember some versions of this image where I could literally switch between perceptions at will, when I imagined different surrounding light temperatures/environments.
It's a subjective perception.

I can see the blue and black clearly when i tilt the phone screen away from my face... I always see white and gold first, even though I know it isn't.

I'm usually pretty good at shifting between the two ways to perceive optical illusions. But for this one I cannot see anything but white and gold. Even knowing that it's actually blue and black, I still see it as that.

Even more probable than perception variations is just messed up screen settings
