woah guys just a second I was looking at the dress and it looked gold and white then i looked at it again and it looked black and blue #mindblown

 

[Superpenguin]

The first few times I saw the dress, it was always blue and black. Now I can only see white and gold, though. :/

what about people that see both tho

 

[Jaebeommie]

It's blue and black. Original poster of the post says so, and the site that has the dress says so.
End of story.

It's actually blue and black, but I can see both. At first I saw white and gold, it took me a while to see the blue and black. Try squinting if you can't see it.

It changes colors for me every 30 minutes or so too.

Thank you! The only way people will actually see the true color is if you extract it; just viewing the image as a whole will only allow us to perceive it in an illusionary form. I did the same exact thing and the colors came out white and gold, similar to yours. There's also another reason why white and gold are the true colors other than this method (and the so-called "creator" of the image claiming it is); white and gold are transitionary colors in this situation. White and gold can both darken into blue and black, but a black cannot brighten into gold and blue cannot brighten into white. Additionally, the dress shown on a website that is depicted as black and blue is not the same dress as in the photo; it has no sleeves and its frills are different. Problem solved!

But anyways...I think the most important thing is, we're all never going to agree and it...and it's just a dress. If this is more important than what matters are going on in our countries today, that is just silly.

[X2k5a7y]

I saw it as white and gold, then after reading the spoiler, I scrolled back up. It was blue and black. Now, it's blue and gold-ish black.

I see baby blue and gold, but I know that it's actually blue and black from the many of explanations I've already read.

This is the original dress (On the left), worn to a wedding. It's definitely black and blue here.

[Ninja_Fridge]

[nekosync]

Is it just me or is the dress changing colour from gold&white to black&blue (within seconds)?? freaked out

 

[CozyKitsune]

Blue and black I tried to see white and gold but coulnt.

 

[MadisonCrossing]

I heard that it really is blue and black, but for three days straight I've only seen white and gold. ; o ;

Unfortunately so, they are not the same dress They are very similar, but if you compare them, you can see discrepancies. The so-called "color-changing" dress has shorter sleeves, and while they both have a similar color scheme (if the dress is seen as black and blue), the blue in that dress is clearly darker and the frills are also variant.

I'd really love to continue the argument but that is why I made my comment before, to close it. I do appreciate your input, though.
