Logically I realize the "white" is bluish-gray, especially if I stretch it out to the edges of my phone so I'm not influenced by the backlighting in the photo. But I held it up next to my black cat and the "black" isn't even close. At most it's brown, which is what gold looks like in shadow. Compare it to your background if you're on night mode, or your text if not. No black there.
So are you saying it's being hit with a strong yellow light? Why then is the black and white thing on the far left still showing as black?
No, my brain is assuming a bright yellow light coming from behind, leaving the front of the dress in shadow.
