I swear it was blue and black this morning, but now it's white and gold!
Opposite happened to me, white and gold this morning but black and blue now 🤯

This is the color picker in the image you replied to. Do you really think the colors on the left are white and the colors on the right are gold?
This person doesn't understand pixels lol. You picked one pixel. Pick 100 of them and average them. It's in the white spectrum with a slight shade of blue hue. If you look at it on the color wheel, it's well within white segment slightly towards the blue. When you zoom out of single pixels, it's white that you get under cool white light. It's still considered white.
As for gold, computer screens do not display gold in specular way how you see it with eyes.When you pick pixels, they will be in range of brown. Again, you don't seem to underetand pixels. And ultimately, this is suppose to be black, remember? Where's the black?
The "after" photos of a dress show dark blue with black lace details because it was not captured in bullshit lighting. Where is that on the picked pixels? Just like years ago we are once again arguing over bullshit doctored/manipulated/bad photo of a dress arguing what color it is. It's beyond stupid and I can't believe people are still this dumb to argue about colors that aren't even there. I don't care how dress actually looks, you showed me the photo of it and you're asking me how the dress looks like on the photo, not in reality. The rest is within the color picker which is mathematical representation of colors that doesn't give a shit how eyes work. And it picks very faint blue and brown (thats perceived by eyes as white and gold). Not dark blue and black.

It's pale blue and gold, right?

it's the other way around. the dress is blue and black. people who are white and gold do so based on an assumption that it's in shadow rather than overexposed.

it was obviously blue and yellow.

I see blue and gold too, but you're the first other person I've met who does
Rise up my brother!

The lighting of the room is clearly yellow. The black stripes look to be a very glossy material, which when lit with yellow light reflects goldish. There's no way that lighting turns a white dress blue.
What room? It looks like we're looking at the back of an object that's facing out into bright sunlight.

It's because we're also very used to seeing photographs of a subject in shade while the background is in full sunlight. If you take a picture of a white and gold dress in the shadow of a patio, with the background all fully lit by bright sunlight, the actual pixels representing white objects in the shade would be that bluish gray tint.
The problem here is that the dress isn't in the shade but those of us who see white and gold simply assume that it is in shade, while black/blue viewers (correctly) assume that it is under the same lighting conditions of the overexposed background.
wrote last edited by [email protected]This thread has been helpful for understanding how others could see it as white and gold; I never realized people were actually seeing it as in shadow even given the context of the rest of the picture.

I thought it was the otherway around. I see White and Gold and I'm pretty sure I was wrong at the time

Whatever the setting is, it appears to be bathed in bright sunlight. That's the important part.

Yeah, it's like blue and an ugly desaturated goldenrod. Because it's sort of yellowish instead of black I think that's why it tricks people's brains.
-
Even with my phone cranked all the way up it still looks blue to me. I've never been able to see the white and gold version people claim exists.
Maybe my comment can help

I found this image to be a really good way to distill the issue down into the two different modes or perception:

To me the background looks more like the left.

It's funny how people will keep barking about it even when you slap them in the face with color picker which is mathematical display of the color. There is no "how brain is seeing things". It's literally WHAT THE COLOR IS. To call white with faint blue tint "blue" and what is clearly a "gold" shade can't possibly be black. If photo was heavily manipulated through photo editing or lighting, that doesn't prove anything at all. Or the question was stupid. No one was really asking "what color is the dress", they were asking what colors are on the photo. And photo has no relation to the real dress because of light conditions manipulation or even photo editing.
No one was really asking "what color is the dress", they were asking what colors are on the photo.
This is not my recollection of this at all. Everyone knows what physical colors are on the screen. If so people who see the image as white and gold wouldn't have been shocked/angry to learn the dress is actually blue and black.

I really just remember it had something to do with the lighting. I see it as a very light blue with black stripes that have hints of gold in them.

I can never see black and blue. I assume all those who claim to see black and blue are bots. fite me

It’s white and gold until you do the ice-bucket challenge, then it’s blue and black.

That would be because the outlines themselves are not the same colors, just the blue/white and black/yellow sections. Here's an image I quickly edited with the outlines and skin removed, so you can see just how much an effect they have on the image. Both dresses still look normal, but they no longer look like completely different colors when compared together this way.
(edit): And here's the same image with the outer boxes removed, to show how much the lighting is affecting things, where one of the dresses just looks completely wrong to me now.
I feel so dumb, you did such good work on this and… OK maybe I’ll just take another look in the morning and it’ll make sense

clearly some problems need to be taken from behind
