      Interesting. I have never once seen the white/gold in the original photo, only blue/black.

      I only ask because both that illusion and this one work only if people misinterpret the lighting. I’m curious to see if other people here have the same correlation

        I swear I read somewhere that the dress color was more a function of whatever device you were viewing it on. Depending on how the display settings and capability of the screen along with any other factors like polarization, etc.

          That could definitely play a part, but when it was going around I saw it on a bunch of android phones, iphones, and on my computer, and I could never see white and gold. Also, I could see the blue and black on the same device as a friend who saw white and gold

          Nah I’ve seen it on so many devices, even loaded it in a photo editor once and messed with the contrast/brightness for a bit. It’s always yellow and gold to me.
