It just causes you to have a certain kind of experience. "It looked white and gold, now it looks blue and black," one man told CBS'2 Ilana Gold. The human eye and brain together translate light into color. Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. Rather, the surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others. On 3 March, the Johnstons, Bleasdale, and MacNeill appeared as guests on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in the United States.
Short Answer
So, although the dress is blue and black, your unconscious overthinking makes you see it as white and gold. Other photographs show that the dress is actually blue and black. In this second photograph, the white wedding dress, dark curtains, visible skin tones and body shadows help us accurately judge the amount of ambient light in the room. I see white and gold, although the actual dress is blue and black. For more than 24 hours now, people across social media have been arguing about whether a picture that's gone viral shows a dress that is blue with a black lace fringe or white with a gold lace fringe. Thus, neuroscientist Bevel Conway told the publication, the brain unconsciously tries to discount the "chromatic bias" of the daylight axis – which ranges from a stark blue and white in the midday hours to red at dawn and dusk.

What's more, lots of people looking at exactly the same image, at the same time, on the same device came to opposite conclusions. I'd swear I saw completely different images of these dresses posted, at extremes of the color controversy and neither was at all ambigous as to what color it was. Well, the best explanation is that our brain does very, very hefty colour correction on its own. The reason is probably so we can ignore the irrelevant information, i.e. the light colour and any sensitivity lag between the different cones and identify objects. I learned back in my Amiga-using, pixel-editing days that there's a lot of blue in most metallics. I don't know if that's an artifact of what happens to light when it bounces off of them, or what, sorry.
But I know that if you're trying to make something look metallic, you're going to be adding some blue to it. If however your brain makes the call that it's strong orange light then that implies the stripes are in fact blue. That further implies the other stripes are dark grey, usually intrepreped as black. And that was on three screens with a photographer's eye.
Finally! Mystery behind the viral White/Blue/Gold/Black dress revealed
Humans have a low concentration of rod receptors and a high concentration of cone receptors, which is why we can't see as well at night but can detect colors better, than say, cats. "Everyone went to DEFCON 5 immediately when someone disagreed. It was like you were questioning something even more fundamental than their religion," Wired articles editor Adam Rogers said. For your security, we've sent a confirmation email to the address you entered.
Viewers of the image disagreed on whether the dress depicted was coloured black and blue, or white and gold. This appears to be exactly what may be happening in the case of the famous color ambiguous dress! However, when some of us see the dress and our brain assumes that we are looking at it in daylight conditions and makes some adjustments to account for the color spectrum of the light source. For about half of us, the brain discounts the blue side of the light source, subtracting out the blue from the actual color of the dress so that we perceive the dress as white and gold. For the rest of us, the brain discounts the gold spectrum of the light, yielding a totally different perception of the dress as that of a blue and black dress.
Earlier tonight, I compared the same picture on the same site using 3 different computer monitors side by side and 3 different tablet screens. It's overexposed and the white balance is off by a mile. My 10 year old Razr flip phone took better pictures than that. Not trolling - I really cannot see this as white in any circumstances, even the XKCD "color balanced" bit I still see it as blue . I am fairly convinced that those that claim the dress to be "distinctly blue" are just trolling the rest and extracting some weird sort of pleasure from it. The interesting aspect of this story is that there are sooo many people willing to troll others.
The white part has a blue tint but I wouldn't call it blue. When I bring the iPhone outside, the blue tinge is more apparent (a short of light sky-blue) and the gold/brown turn darker, somewhat into the black category. Using a photo of a blue and gold dress, the staff at Deadspin determined the dress' hex colors using Photoshop's eyedropper tool.
