Between ranting at people about net neutrality, catching some of Ted Cruz at CPAC on Fox News, and now this crap, I have the worst headache and I'm really hoping putting a Sigur Ros record on will cure it.

- Of course it's gonna turn black when you tell the software to display brown as black using black point eye drop.pango

so are we guessing what the dress should be under proper lighting?
or are we stating how it should display on monitor?
or are we telling what we think the dress colour looks like?

pango,
Those tests are great. But the photo in question is a piece of shit, poorly lit, blurry photo that is a horrible image to use for such a test / optical illusion / gotcha question.

Y'all need to do this test.

Change the brightness of your screen, see if it changes for you.
I first saw white and gold, bumped up to highest brightness setting turned it into blue and black. Now I can't see it white anymore.

it all gets really fucked up when the color shifts on you. i saw it clearly as blue and black. i even texted the image to someone. to check color space i rechecked it after i started seeing white and gold. sure enough, it was whitish and gold online and on my phone. my body must be going through changes.

judging by the bright day light in the back. I would assume the dress is in the shade. when camera's white balance is set to day light. white in the shade in most case turns light blue with hint of magenta.
with experience and repeatable scenario. My would say i'm 99% sure that light purple area of the dress are supoosed to be white under K6600 Light.

There are a few factors to consider when evaluating these colors:
1) How the camera lens and sensor perceived and captured it
2) How your monitor displays it
3) How your eyes perceive these ranges of color on a monitor
4) How you brain dismisses the fact that you're part of a mass punkingAlso, if this weren't such a big joke, I'd take issue with the question being asked. Are we being asked what colors we believe the dress *actually* is or what actual RGB values are being use to represent and display the dress in this image.
Answers from these two camps of reasoning will obviously lead to contrary opinions thus creating the illusion of vision anomalies.

I could see how people couldn't think black, but the warm tint makes me see a dark olive.
