I originally saw it only as gold/white, but now I can see it both ways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088877 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 16:11:45 +0000 aegie 2088877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: the original photo was over exposed so the blue washed out to white and the black got washed out to gold. However, some people can still see the blue and black because they are more sensitive to light than most hence the color debate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088820 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 15:38:25 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2088820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my girls see it as blue and black.

Our local news polled their viewers and it came out to like 60% see white and gold, 30% see blue and black, and 10% see blue and gold. We are in the minority, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088760 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 15:05:21 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2088760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Back to white &amp; gold </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088754 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 15:02:21 +0000 MapleMoose 2088754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On the news this morning I saw blue and black.

Why isn't this an option?

Just now I saw the picture again and it was white. I stepped away from the computer and it's back to blue. Sooooo weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088563 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 13:07:54 +0000 Foodnerd81 2088563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I clicked on this this morning I was like, it's obviously white and gold, and try as I might I just could not make it blue. Came back just now to see if I could try it again and I'll be damned if t isn't light blue now. But it's still brownish, not black. And staring at the upper right corner for a few seconds makes it bluer. </p> <p>Btw I'm so out of the loop, apparently this is a huge thing on the Internet and I only heard about it this morning and am still totally confused about llamas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088558 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 13:04:58 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2088558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: If that's in fact the same dress, what is the difference between the two photos? How does the dress on the hanger look white and gold when the same dress on a person looks blue and black?</p> <p>ETA: OMG, I went back to page 1 of the thread and now it's blue and black, but still not as dark blue and black as the dress on a person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088546 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 12:57:32 +0000 mrsjyw 2088546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG I JUST SAW THIS ON A YAHOO ARTICLE. And now the dress is black and blue to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF?! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088479 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 12:07:49 +0000 jedeve 2088479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought it was pretty cute when it was white and gold. But I don't like it in blue and black as much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/4#post-2088472 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 12:03:22 +0000 MrsMccarthy 2088472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only see blue and black or perhaps blue and goldish black and really all I see is one ugly dress. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/3#post-2088445 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:43:14 +0000 MediaNaranja 2088445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I originally saw it yesterday as the white/gold. After scrolling back up the page it was the black/blue. This happened after focusing on the blown-out portion of the photo in the upper right. After looking at that for a few seconds and then back to the dress, it slowly faded into the black/blue. Now I can ONLY see it that color. So crazy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/3#post-2088442 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:41:32 +0000 Torchwood 2088442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: It makes the most sense to me! Especially for explaining why people are sometimes seeing one then the other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/3#post-2088437 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:39:18 +0000 .twist. 2088437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: From everything I've read, it seems like this is the answer to the argument to end all arguments: </p> <p><i>What matters is whether or not you perceive the photo as overexposed in general or as having a deep shadow cast over the dress. Your brain will automatically correct for whichever one you believe, and you'll see either white/gold or blue/black. I personally see white/gold, but the dress in real life is very much blue and black.</i> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/3#post-2088436 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:38:34 +0000 cascademom 2088436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: I agree on the ugly. Why is no one pointing out what an ugly dress it is? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/3#post-2088435 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:37:33 +0000 cascademom 2088435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband and I disagree about this. I see blue and black even with the bad initial photo that set this off. He sees white and gold. Last night, he kept on teasing me about being wrong. I could maybe see the gold with the bad lighting, but what he saw as white, I could see as maybe baby blue at best. </p> <p>After our tough night, teasing about internet dress memes and llamas running loose made it a little better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-colors-are-this-dress/page/3#post-2088434 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 11:36:36 +0000 Torchwood 2088434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the best part of this is that no one can even agree on WHY we're seeing it differently. Some say it's your eyes, some say it's your brain processing things differently. So weird! </p>
