I believe years ago when it first hit the socmed sites it was determined it is really blue? Something like that...
It was a "viral" thing people used to talk about on socmed.
I missed all those convos bc I don't have any socmed 😁
I wanted to add also that there is a "blue color" I see as purple. I do not see the blue ... I see its purple hues lol
Oh how many a playful arguments around that particular color have I had. lol
Also I imagine the camera's too play a role in this color of dress? That I think could be taken into account? Idk ? I am only a color expert with my own eyeballs lol
Interesting.
Being involved in art, graphic design and photography for decades, my first reaction was that the dress was backlit and so in shade, which tends to lend a bluish cast with beige. On my desktop. Now seeing it on my laptop it looks a darker blue with maybe black stripes. For me it's a toss up between lighting and screen calibration. Without all the complicated psychology.
I can see how the lighter color can be interpreted as either white or light blue, but I cannot see how what I see as gold can be interpreted as black. It's much lighter than black. I get how people might see tan, brown or yellow - but black?
Yep. On my laptop. It depends on the angle of my screen. Not a solid black, but faded like stonewashed black jeans.
Screens are calibrated differently, which makes graphic design a little complicated. Colors look different on Windows and Macs, other computer brands.
When you first posted this the dress for me was white and gold and now its blue and black!
I am on same device.
(Looks for gremlins)
