And she confirmed that the dress was indeed the royal blue body con from Roman Originals, as BuzzFeed suspected.

I just looked at this post, then looked at the original. The pic in the original was now clearly blue and black. I looked for an edit message cause it looked like a completely new pic, but it was the original. But, now it's back to white and gold.

Lighting certainly makes the difference.

Messes with your Rods and Cones.

If it ain't red and gold I don't care.

In the original picture, it's clearly gold and white, though the white has a bluish tint to it.

This is exactly what I see.

And this is why 'good' lighting and 'bad' lighting matter.

Something I'm sure women understand more than men.

You think the dress is white and gold?

This is going to appear differently on different devices. I first looked at this on my phone and it looks different on my plasma TV.

That's not true. The dress is actually black and blue, IRL. The lighting is just god awful.

Holy shit, it changed for me. It was white or very light blue/gold. Then I saw the dress in post #10, scrolled back up to the OP and it changed to blue/black. Very dramatic change. I'm trying to make it change back but can't get it to change. Best optical illusion I've seen in a while.

No shit, it changed from white/gold to blue/black for me as well after seeing the catalog picture. I guess that once my brain "knew" what the actual dress looks like, it modified the way I perceive the light in the original.

Brains are pretty ****ing cool.

I should get one! I see it as white/gold but if I look at the blue/black and scroll back up one time it stayed but generally it starts blue at the bottom and then as I see the whole pic it merges back to white/gold :#

It doesn't really matter what the color is as long as you feel pretty in it. CP supports your life choice.

I'm holding off until I hear what Bruce Jenner has to say about it.

I have looked at the various versions and I see it as either blue and black or light blue and some whited out black or grey with AT MOST some gold highlights.

The part that boggles my mind is that some people see WHITE? I see nothing close to white. Are my eyes screwed up or yours?

Mine apparently. WHITE and GOLD. And I have no idea how anyone sees black/blue there.

Apparently it has to do with the rods in our eyes that detect color. If nobody else has posted that bit, I will.

So this is the explanation. No idea if true, but seems ot make sense. Pretty surprising.

Quote:

“Your eyes have retinas, the things that let you interpret color. There’s rods, round things, and cones that stick out, which is what gives your eye a textured appearance in the colored part. The “cones” see color. The “rods” see shade, like black, white and grey. Cones only work when enough light passes through. So while I see the fabric as white, someone else may see it as blue because my cones aren’t responding to the dim lighting.

My rods see it as a shade (white).

There’s three cones: small, medium and large. They are blue sensitive, green sensitive, and red sensitive.

As for the black bit (which I see as gold), it’s called additive mixing. Blue, green and red are the main colors for additive mixing. This is where it gets really tricky. Subtractive mixing, such as with paint, means the more colors you add the murkier it gets until its black. ADDITIVE mixing, when you add the three colors the eyes see best, red, green and blue, (not to be confused with primary colors red, blue and yellow) it makes pure white.

—Blue and Black: In conclusion, your retina’s cones are more high functioning, and this results in your eyes doing subtractive mixing.

—White and Gold: our eyes don’t work well in dim light so our retinas rods see white, and this makes them less light sensitive, causing additive mixing, (that of green and red), to make gold.”

I just want to say that I mentioned Rods and Cones first. :D

I never saw blue or gold. I saw white dress with black trim in bad lighting.
