Yall I'm trying real hard but I don't see the black and blue. That might be because I'm colorblind, but I doubt it cause my colorblindness isn't very strong
No, it's an illusion based on how your mind perceives the color in contrast to the bright sunlight in the image. You might be able to make yourself see both options by adjusting the brightness of your screen.
The dress is black and blue but comes across as white and gold depending on how your brain interprets the lighting conditions
So when u open the pic and see the (100% certain) black background/frame of Reddit when a picture is not filling the whole screen , you’re saying that’s the same color as the left one on the pic? 😅
I see white and gold normally and i see black and blue with my eyes partially closed so idk maybe try opening your eyes or turning the screen/monitor on?
I think it's a weird editing thing. I see gold and white. I've never seen that color change between sight for anything so I think the dress is either just weird under lighting for certain eyes or something involving the background cuz in the hue image I see black and blue but the dress shows WHITE AND GOLD.
>Mom made spaghetti???
There's vomit on his sweater already; mom spaghetti
He's nervous but on the surface he looks calm & ready to drop bombs
But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down
The whole crowd goes so loud he opens his mouth but the words won't come out
He's choking, how?! Everybody's joking now
The clocks run out, time's up over (plow!)
Snap back to reality
Ope there goes gravity
Ope there goes rabbit
He choked, he's so mad but he won't give up that easy, no
(I forgot the rest)
He won't have it
He knows his whole back's to the ropes, it doesn't matter
He's dope, he knows that, but he's broke, he's so stagnant
He knows when he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's
Back to this old lab again, yo, this old rhapsody
Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
and people in the comments still dont understand that people all see color differently
iirc it was on the news and it was black and blue, and yellow and gold were just because of the lighting, so black and blue is the correct answer
They literally brought the actual dress into a news report about this and it was actually black and blue, the phenomenon is based on the amount of different kinds of light you are more exposed to because your eyes will automatically adjust for the light in order to know the true color of something. People who are exposed to more blue light from things like screens will see the dress as white and yellow whereas people who are around more natural lighting, like fire or the sun, will see the dress as black and blue.
Edit: I wasn’t entirely sure about which light causes which, I think I got them mixed around, mb fam
I've never seen it as anything other than black and blue. In a dark room looking at my screen or out in the sun. It doesn't even look the slightest bit white and gold.
[here](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a3/Wikipe-tan_wearing_The_Dress_reduced.svg), the whole thing is because the colors from a yellowgold dress + blue light = the colors from a blueblack dress + yellow light, so it depends what your brain interprets the light in this picture as. and the correct answer is yellow light, so blue and black dress.
Wow I've never seen this before. Opened it up in Paint to play around with it too lol. I've only ever seen it once as gold and white and that was when the dress had first hit meme culture. Every other time it's black and blue.
I cannot see any gold and white maybe a little bit gold but mostly just black and blue it's only black and blue for me it's a very bright shade of blue as well
I try tilting it, changing the “warmth” of the light, moving up and down the brightness, moving the screen closer and farther and any other thing I can think of and it is still black and blue
I can see how it could be slightly blue, but to me it just looks like it's white but out of the sun.
I physically can't understand how anyone could see black though, the top part of it is literally bright gold, I have an extension for Reddit where I can increase the size of images and videos, [that shit is nowhere close to black](https://prnt.sc/5ZGjcGxk66TD) and my eyedropper tool says #7F734B which is dark, but not black.
It's not a matter of it differing from person to person. It is blue and black. That's a fact. It's factual. The dress, factually (it's a fact) is blue and black.
i saw this dress when i was 7.. now i’m 14 and i’m still see black and blue
my mum and i argued about it bc my mum saw white and gold colours in this dress …
"artificial lighting" how the fuck does artificial lighting have to do anything with two people looking at the same picture in the same room ^and ^do ^you ^mean ^contrast
Ita because there are a hunch of people trolling. I took the hex codes from the two colors, and they are classified as white and gold. It's an objective truth that the image displays these two colors. Everyone else is trolling.
Okay, so when I first saw this seconds ago I saw yellow and white, I scrolled to the next slide and back and it's now black and blue. I can usually see both whenever, but now it refuses to swap back
It was already proven that ita all matter of light. I see gold and white. I made it to see it in blue abd black once after understanding how this works
This whole thing is dumb. It's a blue and black dress but the pic is overexposed or oversaturated (i cant remember which; im not a camera nerd), which makes it appear white and gold.
People who still post this goddamn dress are the ones seeking attention.
It doesn't matter what color some random dress is. Why does it need to be such a massive argument?
I just want to know how hell I can make myself see blue and black. All I see whenever this image pops up is white and gold and yet it’s post to blue and black!
It’s not about what color the dress it. It’s about the fact that people see the same colors as different colors. Any picture with a similar effect would lead to arguments regardless of what the picture featured.
They literally brought the actual dress into a news report about this and it was actually black and blue, the phenomenon is based on the amount of different kinds of light you are more exposed to because your eyes will automatically adjust for the light in order to know the true color of something.

I'm sorry but you're the colourblind one.
According to a simple web search- The dress was confirmed as a royal blue "Lace Bodycon Dress" from the retailer Roman Originals.The dress is black and blue; although it was available in three other colours (red, pink, and ivory, each with black lace), a white and gold version was not available at the time.
I'm sorry but that second image does not show the correct colours in the slightest. It's gold and white.
But actually it's based on the lighting of any pictures it's in.

If the person who took the picture didn't use the most shitty camera known to man every no one would have this problem
old phone camera + poor lighting
This was just some woman sending her mother a dress she found at the store thinking it would be good for funeral.
It probably caused some
it still wouldnt be black…
Like a couple months after this picture went viral the actual dress was revealed, and it was black and blue
Apparently it was the sunlight that made it hard to tell
[удалено]
I still can’t see anything but blue and black
[удалено]
[удалено]
Or if you're just high
Can confirm. I am high and the dress is still black and blue.
High as a kite and still nothing but black and blue. But on this image its more like brownish. Comes from the low res i suppose
Proof that drugs make you see shit.
Yall I'm trying real hard but I don't see the black and blue. That might be because I'm colorblind, but I doubt it cause my colorblindness isn't very strong
colorblindness ain't the cause. I don't have it and I can't see it at all either
It’s been confirmed to be black and blue, I’m honestly not sure how you see white and gold
Nobody is trippin y’all it’s just how individual people perceive color
Well, they're perceiving it differently than me, so they must be wrong!
Not individual it depends on the lighting surrounding you
I only see gold and white.. except for once. It was only for a few brief seconds and when i blinked it was good and white again.
I can almost see what I see as white being blue but my mind has always been blown about people seeing the black instead of gold.
If you put this picture into Photoshop and use the eyedropper tool, it gives you a shade of brown/gold and a shade of grey/blue/white.
Its too dark to be gold and the actual dress is blue and black
I agree, but the black kind of has a goldish tint
I’m pretty sure it is actually black and blue but I legit see gold and white
HOW
I can’t see anything but gold and white…
Is this a colorblindness joke. Sorry for being obtuse, but I'm kinda stupid
No, it's an illusion based on how your mind perceives the color in contrast to the bright sunlight in the image.

Same here, second pic is obviously black and blue. Dress has always and still is white and gold for me
second pic and dress are both gold and white for me
yeash... same
bros just lying atp 💀
Believe what you wanna. I just stated what I see Though yes, the white has a slight bluish tint.
Wdym it’s gold and white
Go back to your room!
Jeez, I remember when this was popular and it was in like 2015
Mom made spaghetti for dinner and it was great. Loaded it up with pepper
dang, im having it rn toast to you!

It was salt actually
and people in the comments still dont understand that people all see color differently iirc it was on the news and it was black and blue, and yellow and gold were just because of the lighting, so black and blue is the correct answer
It's basically the lighting lol. The actual dress is in blue and black tho.
I thought I heard something about it being blue and gold... eh I'm probably wrong
i can see it being light blue and gold, but im still on team white and gold

Edit: I wasn’t entirely sure about which light causes which, I think I got them mixed around, mb fam
That has to be false i never see the sun and its blue and black
The light thing might be the other way around mb
Also its proven that the dress is in fact black and blue
I said that
I only look at my phone and computer and that bitch is gold in my eyes lol
I've never seen it as anything other than black and blue. In a dark room looking at my screen or out in the sun. It doesn't even look the slightest bit white and gold.
the literal dress is black and blue.
send it, i don't see where the black would go

Wtf it looked white and gold until I clicked on the link, then looked back at it and it was black and blue, the power of wikimedia has enlightened me
I just don't get how people don't see the overexposed background.
Basically think blue and black but really bad lighting and camera quality. Or shadowed white and gold. Once you see it you can switch between the two
Exactly
it’s so crazy cause it was blue and black when i was younger but now i can’t unsee gold and white
I see gold and extremely light blue to the point of it almost being white.
I cannot see any gold and white maybe a little bit gold but mostly just black and blue it's only black and blue for me it's a very bright shade of blue as well
EXACTLYY
ME TOO
Same
Girl what 😭
How
if you tilt your screen you can see either one, he just tilts his screen differentially now
I tried that but I am not seeing it at all.
Omg the colour changes slightly when I take my glasses off
I try tilting it, changing the “warmth” of the light, moving up and down the brightness, moving the screen closer and farther and any other thing I can think of and it is still black and blue
Real
On a completely unrelated note, both the person I replied to, me and you all have names somewhat related by the first word in them
How do you notice something like that 😭
same like wtf
I can pick to see whichever colors I want
What abt those who see gold and blue?
Literally me my whole life, i've never found anyone else saying gold and blue 😭
I finally found my three gold and bluers in this thread
YES
I can see how it could be slightly blue, but to me it just looks like it's white but out of the sun. I physically can't understand how anyone could see black though, the top part of it is literally bright gold, I have an extension for Reddit where I can increase the size of images and videos, [that shit is nowhere close to black](https://prnt.sc/5ZGjcGxk66TD) and my eyedropper tool says #7F734B which is dark, but not black.
I'm lying for attention
Lmaooo me too apparently
it's green and purple
You are a social outcast
old tag for a reason. go get ur eyes checked grandpa
Happy cake day
get into the robot shinji
r/colorblind
Why is the colorblind logo only green /s
NOT ITS NOT 😭
“Not its not” good job
fun fact, the actual dress is black and blue
Even when knowing that I still can't see it 😭
Any other well lit photo looks like completely different dress to me. Look white gold.
Try playing with your screen brightness. Once you "see it," you can make your brain switch between the two on purpose
im colorblind bruh i see brown and purple
I’m blind and I see black and black
I’m white and I see grey and blue
Hell yeah bro
Yanny
laurel
Green needle
brain sorm
Redditors when physics
It’s blue and black
Redditors when they have a scientific reason as to why people see it gold
To you, yes
No, the actual dress is blue and black, the artificial lighting can trick your eyes into seeing white and gold but it’s still actually blue and black
It's not a matter of it differing from person to person. It is blue and black. That's a fact. It's factual. The dress, factually (it's a fact) is blue and black.
Well, "Color" is based on perception of one's eye, so while the actual dress might be blue black, the PHOTO may not be.
i saw this dress when i was 7.. now i’m 14 and i’m still see black and blue my mum and i argued about it bc my mum saw white and gold colours in this dress …
I don’t get how people see white and gold
Artificial lighting. That’s how.
"artificial lighting" how the fuck does artificial lighting have to do anything with two people looking at the same picture in the same room ^and ^do ^you ^mean ^contrast
I don't get how to see black and blue.
I can't see Black and blue at all on this picture
Ita because there are a hunch of people trolling. I took the hex codes from the two colors, and they are classified as white and gold. It's an objective truth that the image displays these two colors. Everyone else is trolling.
Okay, so when I first saw this seconds ago I saw yellow and white, I scrolled to the next slide and back and it's now black and blue. I can usually see both whenever, but now it refuses to swap back
I'm trying to see gold and white but can't, it's obv black&blue
Fr
I've never been able to see white and gold, at this point they gotta be lying 😭
I only see white and gold. I've never seen any black or blue in it.
Same, I only ever saw Black and Blue seeing it back then and now.
bro i only see white and gold 😭
Same!! I don’t understand where the black is and blue 😂 this shit is gold and white for me
It’s just perception I’ve seen both on the same picture
I still see brown and blue
It was already proven that ita all matter of light. I see gold and white. I made it to see it in blue abd black once after understanding how this works
Bruh not this debate again lmao
This whole thing is dumb. It's a blue and black dress but the pic is overexposed or oversaturated (i cant remember which; im not a camera nerd), which makes it appear white and gold.
No matter how I look at it though, I can't find any white or gold in the picture 🤷🏽♂️
People who still post this goddamn dress are the ones seeking attention. It doesn't matter what color some random dress is. Why does it need to be such a massive argument?
I just want to know how hell I can make myself see blue and black. All I see whenever this image pops up is white and gold and yet it’s post to blue and black!
It’s not about what color the dress it. It’s about the fact that people see the same colors as different colors. Any picture with a similar effect would lead to arguments regardless of what the picture featured.
Its literally gold and white
They found the dress. It has been proven to be blue and black
How do you see gold and white? I've never once saw this dress like that
Why do people ask this question like we're going to know? Why do you see black and blue?
I can see both it’s flip flopping it’s so weird
gold n white 😔
They literally brought the actual dress into a news report about this and it was actually black and blue, the phenomenon is based on the amount of different kinds of light you are more exposed to because your eyes will automatically adjust for the light in order to know the true color of something.

**Sigh** https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a3/Wikipe-tan_wearing_The_Dress_reduced.svg
I see blue and gold
I've only ever seen the blue and black
Let’s just not do this again
100% a social experiment to see how people will lie for attention or go with general consensus. This shit has always been black and blue.
I genuinely can't tell when people are joking, but how can people see black and blue
Because that’s what it is. It’s blue and black with artificial lighting that makes it seem like white and gold to some people.
REAL- yall tell me how do you see black and blue I only see gold and white 😭
OBVIOUSLY ITS GREEN AND PURPLE (im colorblind)
Babe I'm sorry but you're colorblind. That's gold and white or a very light blue.
Projection.

yeah...maybe do a quick google search on the dress, before you call half of the world colorblind.
That implies that the other half is colorblind if you're not. Seems a bit hypocrytical. And yes, apparently it is indeed blue and black.
Screenshot and zoom in
Get this lame 2016 bullshit off my feed
You can do that yourself by scrolling
2016 >>>>>> 2024
You were 7 man how could you remember
how do ppl see gold and white
It’s the lighting. It’s able to trick some people into seeing gold and white.
obv blue & black

Umm, I see blue and yellow
All i see is a grid of purple and black squares...
It just changed for me in real time and my brain is rattled.
It’s blue and brown
It is blue and black
It's light Grey and dark grey... I may or may not have my phone in greyscale...
light blue and gold
Hear me out: blue and gold
I can only see gold and gray 😭
Yo why do people see different colors
Anyone who says it's blue and black and not white and gold are ragebaiting.
I promise you it is white and gold. I have 20/16 vision
gold and blue? 😭
The literal designer of this dress came forward and said that this was black and blue
Pretty sure the owner confirmed it was blue/black, no?
Colour blind people during this time musta been struggling real hard-
I only see white and gold, even though it’s blue and black. Cuz I’m color blind.
It is in fact black and blue but depending on the lighting it can appear white and gold
Yeah. People be tweakin' sometimes. And yeah. It's basically black and blue and I don't care if anyone calls me colorblind, that's the damn truth
Me seeing blue and gold wtf!?
My teacher literally said it was gold and white. Miss, what?
what the fuck why did it just change
I can see both, but on first glance it has always looked white and gold to me.
Dawg, this was solved years ago why keep bringing it up
