    I’ve tried so many things from squinting to covering parts of the picture to adjusting the light in my room. I know this dress is blue and black because I’ve seen it while not being over exposed. I just can’t get my brain to recognize it any other way than gold and white in this picture.

      Yeah I just don’t understand this as well, even if the dress was confirmed black and blue, where the heck are those colors in the image? The blue I can still go with if using color picker but the gold is clearly there, even color picker says it’s gold from the image alone. Doesn’t mater what the real dress is colored in if the picture conveys a different story. I see also mostly white and gold and no matter what can’t change it besides looking at the other images of this dress.

        Black material isn’t perfect and still reflects light, given there’s a very yellow light source and the picture is overexposed it is showing the black as a “gold” due to the yellow tint.
