Just asked my kids (Not around for the first time). One says blue and black/gray and the other said purple and green/gray. I've never known anyone who actually saw it as white and gold. Only heard that people do.
I do
Me three
It's white and gold to me
I do, too
It's white/gold if you recognize that it's lit from behind. So the dress appearing darker is due to there being much less light on it than the stuff behind it.
I can't see it as blue/black because I can't make my brain ignore the fact that it's backlit. But if your brain never recognizes that, then I suppose it would look blue.
They established that its blue and black. I see white and gold but the actual colour was never the debate.
Does it help that you can see the shadows of the sleeves on the body of the dress? There has to be light in front and above for that to happen.
The actual dress is blue and black and even when heavily backlit it just appears to be a lighter shade of blue, but not even close to white.
