Comment on What a nice blue and black dress.

  No?

  The dress was confirmed as a royal blue “Lace Bodycon Dress” from the retailer Roman Originals. The dress is black and blue; although it was available in three other colours (red, pink, and ivory, each with black lace), a white and gold version was not available at the time.

    To illustrate:

    (I didn’t expect such deep blue. Guess the exposure on the camera was ridiculously out of whack.)

  the photo yes but not the dress itself, take the og photo from the wiki into any photoshop with a color picker, and look at the points it marks it on the color range (it shows it between yellow and red nowhere near any blue) its gold stripes in the photo. the “white dress” parts do show up with light blue tint, it all just because of the terrible back light overexposed effect. the real dress yes is blue and black, but the photo is gold stripes with light-blueish white dress.

    I wouldn’t call this “nowhere near blue":

        I legitimately cannot believe people are still arguing this.

        Why is it so clearly blue and black in your screenshot?

        …

        Did you pick that colour from the part that’s black IRL? Of course that won’t be blue.
