Q: What Color is the Dress? A: Royal Blue and Black

I see the dress as White and Gold but the other 3 people in my house see royal blue and black.  The whole thing is very interesting and was the hot topic of last week.   It’s kind of old news now but I thought y’all would want to see the results of our Aha! Survey.  dress chartBe sure and read the comments below and click here to see an interview with the dress shop owner and read the science behind why we all see it differently!

    When I saw this on Facebook last night, it was most decidedly white and gold, but, now, clear as day, it is blue and black.
    There’s some fabric to the left that is either black and white or black and ivory or gold, but the buld of the dress is blue with black trim. There may also be some gold thread in the black.

    White & Gold?? Trick question?
    Saw it on the news this morning and it was plain as day White/Gold. Now it looks Blue/Black????
    Periwinkle and Olive
    At first I saw white and gold until I asked my autistic son what he saw and he said “Blue with black stripes” and within 10 seconds the dress changes colors right before me and now all I see is blue with black!
    Or blue and dark gray
    My daughter showed me this on Instagram five minutes ago and we both agreed it was white and gold. When I pulled this up, we both agreed it was blue and black. So she checked her screenshot of the white and gold instagram dress, and now the screenshot is blue and black. It must change colors somehow!!

    When I saw this on a friend’s phone, it was white and gold, but now it appears to be blue and black.

    My daughter sees white and gold. My husband sees blue and gold. I definitely see blue and black. It’s driving me nuts!
    Not sure how it could look white and gold???
    This one’s clearly Blue & Black on my Mac, but I’ve seen (on tv – I’m one of the few who don’t do Twitter, Facebook, etc) the others that look white & gold & somewhere in between.
    Periwinkle and platinum 🙂
    it has always been white and gold in the other pictures… so weird!

    When I have seen this on television it has definitely looked white and gold, but on your survey, it definitely looks blue and black–even through my champagne-tinted computer glasses that filter blue light!

    Here and on tv, but when I saw the story on the internet, it was gold and white.
    “In my household of 4.
    2 of us see white and gold and the other 2 see blue and black”
    I know it is blue and black and looks it here. first time I saw it saw light blue and gold.. very strange.
    I saw this on another site and it was clearly white and gold.
    Mustard and white
    Periwinkle Blue with black or brown lace???

    To me this blue with gold trim. I saw the same photo on television this morning and it was obviously blue with black trim. Depends on the photo.
    My husband sees white/gold and I see blue/black!! The universe is CRAZY
    It’s a very light blue with white ridges running through the blue and trimmed in a taupe/brown.
    I saw this on Facebook and the dress was white and gold, but on here it is blue and black.
    In this picture it looks blue and black. In other pictures I’ve seen on the internet and on TV news it has looked white and gold to me but blue and black to my husband. Does anyone have an explanation for this phenomenon?
    Blue and gold for me!
    Periwinkle and taupe
    But…this morning on the TODAY Show I saw it as White and Gold.

    I don’t understand what the fuss is about. I’ve seen the same picture 100 times and is definitely Blue and black. How people see white and gold is beyond me.
    In this picture, it’s blue and black, but others I’ve seen today were definitely white and gold!
    blue and brown
