What color is the dress? (1 Viewer)

[jbutler]

i'm sure we've all seen it by now. so what color is this damn dress?

 

[links_slayer]

I must be going crazy. The first few times I saw pics it was black and blue. Now all I can see is white and gold.

first time i saw it i saw blue and brown when i was on my ipad mini. now looking at a 17" laptop screen, i see blue and black.

gold i can KIND of see if you wanna stretch the definition of gold a bit to include lightish brown, but white i just can't understand.

I have been looking at this picture all damn night trying to figure out what the fuss is about. I saw the other pictures of the dress, seems pretty clear it's blue/black in real life, but the exposure makes it look pretty clearly white/gold to me. I have tried only 2 different screens though, a Dell IPS monitor and a Galaxy S4. I'm wondering if a screen with poorer viewing angles will make it look blue/black. I have a TN monitor on my other PC I could turn on and see if it's any different...

I'm going to vote "other"

This pic just looks like one of those pics that was taken with a shitty camera in even worse lighting. Kind of like the pictures of MGM Detroit quarters that look bright yellow or even neon pink.

There was no "you ladies are in the wrong forum" option so I'm not going to vote.

Don't know WTF the story is here (obviously I'm the only Hillbilly Fu#& here) but it looks white (possibly baby blue) and gold on my mac laptop

BTW just hanging there it looks ugly as sin....

I must not get out enough, I also had no idea about this until I saw this thread. I see white and goldish brown but I'm wearing blublocker sunglasses

I said that it was day blue and showboat grey. Wife was not amused.

[detroitdad]

Black and blue

Ok I'm officially weirded out. Earlier it was easily white and gold. Now it's blue and black. Wtf.

At least we can all agree on one thing: The people who see the dress as white are utterly, completely wrong.

agreed!

curses, foiled again (you should've dropped the dr cox gif on me there)

The moral of the story?

Get samples

It's blue and black for me, and I can't even begin to imagine how people are seeing it as white and gold (even with the versions where the white balance is shifted all to hell). I'll double check with WebMD, but it seems like you all have brain tumors growing in your vision centers.

Good question, but more importantly, what color is the chip!!??

Agreed! I would sooner look at ANY woman wearing ^this than that coffee-cup-doily of a dress!

 

[courage]

Looks like blurple and chocolate to me. New idea for color combo. [emoji13]

 

[guinness]

I always see white and gold.

 

[jbutler]

every time i hear people arguing over whether it's black or gold i can't help but sing (yes the parody version too)

So last night on my iPad it was blue/black. Then out of curiosity I checked it here at work on a monitor... White/Gold scrolled down to read a few responses and then back up and it was back/blue again. WTF again.

I can only see black and blue when I tilt the screen of my phone 90 degrees. Looking at it straight on, whether on mobile or desktop, I see white and gold every time.

 

[BGinGA]

When I looked at it earlier in the daytime (and voted), it was white/gold (maybe a very light blue w/gold). Certainly not blue/black.

Like it clearly is now, when I just went back and looked tonight. Bizarro....

 

[NiceShot]

Black and blue!

 

[xt!]

I see blue and gold/brown. You guys (and everyone not me) have shit eyes.

 

[Forest@Farmington]

it appears some people have become very committed to their position.
