re: What color is this dress?

I'll admit that the black has a funny "tint" to it, but I chalked that up to a crappy photo.
To me, at first the top portion looked like a semi reflective black that is reflecting the flash making it less black and more "goldish" but not much. It still seems black to me.
The bottom strips all look black, or a dark brown due to the shitty lighting.
I am trying to see White and Gold but I cannot.

That dress is blue and black. Filtered. Deal with it.
Nobody cares what color the actual dress is. In that photo, there is no black color present in the dress.

I'm not saying that it isn't, I'm saying in that photo, there is no black on that dress.

I can see where people would think that, but again, just too much flash in the picture is throwing it off.

I thought it didn't have anything to do with a digital filter but something with our eyes and brain?

They took a picture of the dress they were buying for the wedding and sent it to their daughter, where then people couldn't agree on what color it was. That's pretty easy to understand.
Except she saw the dress at a wedding. So she sees a dress she wants her daughter to see...but doesnt send it when she sees it initially? She goes and looks for a store display?

She explained to Business Insider that the dress was initially worn to her friend’s wedding, by the mother of the bride.

In the pic posted in the OP, I can see whey people might see gold, but how on earth are you seeing white?

Both... the photo has it washed out, and some people's brains are compensating toward it being artificially lightened, and others are compensating toward it being shadowed.

No filter, just crappy camera settings.

LINK
Just read the link.

The dress was worn by the bride's mother. McNeill and her friends first realized something was different about the dress when the mother sent her daughter the now-famous photo.
"What happened was two of my close friends were actually getting married and the mother of the bride took a photo of the dress to send to her daughter," McNeill said. "When my friend showed the dress to her fiancé, they disagreed on the color."
The bride then posted the picture on Facebook, and her friends continued to debate the color of the dress.
"All of our friends disagreed," McNeill said.
After seeing the Facebook thread, McNeill decided to share the picture on a fan page she has on Tumblr dedicated to a woman named Sarah Weichel. That was where the dress went viral.

I saw white and gold at first then it changed to blue and black once I looked again.
Looks like my eyes are superior at interpolating
