Light is made up of different wavelengths, which the brain perceives as color. Light entering the retina, the light-sensitive part of the eye, activates cone cells that are sensitive to either red, green or blue wavelengths. But the wavelengths your eye detects may not be the wavelengths of the object you're looking at.
And that makes the brain’s color sense shockingly easy to throw off. For example, context matters in an image; we’ll see the same color as lighter or darker depending on what’s around it. The vast majority of subjects reported no difference in their BB vs. WG perceptions between the iPhone, iPad, 22” LCD display, and extracted stripe images of the Dress . One BB subject reported that the tablet Dress appeared blue and gold, another BB reported that the stripe pattern appeared blue and gold, and one WG subject reported that the stripes appeared blue and gold. Hence the majority of observers perceived the same Dress colors regardless of display. But that still doesn't explain why some people's brains assume the lighting is one way and some assume the opposite.
Values Aren't What's Written, But What We Hold Accountable For Every Day
Other celebrities, politicians, government agencies and social media platforms of well-known brands also weighed on the trend. From QVC to Warner Bros. to local public libraries and even Red Cross. Businesses that had nothing to do with the dress, or even the clothing industry, had even devoted their time and attention to the phenomenon. From Adobe to Pizza Hut and others, also jumped into the conversation with their own marketing messages. In the first week after being uploaded, the post gathered 10 million tweets mentioning the dress, using hashtags such as #thedress, #whiteandgold, #blackandblue, #blueandblack and #dressgate.
The human brain assumes that natural or artificial light is reflected by the item in the photograph and compensates for that perception by assuming the surroundings are also natural or artificial. When compared to people under the age of 65, those over the age of 65 were more likely to see the dress as gold and white, while those under the age of 65 were more likely to see it as black and white. This could be due to the fact that older people spend more time indoors.

The researchers in the United States and Germany had 15 people wear a dress under controlled lighting and manually change the color of a disc on a screen. As the participants viewed the images, they could identify shades ranging from light blue to dark blue, with yellow/gold accents to dark brown/black accents. Several researchers discovered that the colors people reported are the same as those in the daylight.
Companies Must Have The 'Willingness To Change' And A Focus On A 'Forever Problem'
The first permanent residents of Waverly were settled there against their will. Because of their alleged assistance given to Chief Black Hawk during the Blackhawk War of 1832, the Winnebago were forced to cede their lands east of the Mississippi and to move to Neutral Ground in what is now northeastern Iowa. They were to receive $270,000 ($10,000 per year for 27 years) and were required to surrender several of their tribesmen accused of murdering whites during the war. At that time there were three tribes living in the area, the Winnebagoes numbering about 500, the Mesquakie numbering about 100 and the Pottawattomies numbering about 50.

Because of the deeper blue hue, the brain sees the blue half as white and the black part as gold. People who perceive the right black and blue may be seeing the outfit under artificial, yellow-lit lighting. Lighting like this makes colors appear more green than they are in reality.
