What is the color of this dress?
It’s just not possible for it to be white and gold.
🎵 Whether you hear it as Laurel or Yanny,
Whether you prefer Oliver or Annie,
Brainstorm, Green Needle
Terrence Howard, Don Cheadle,
Still white and gold to me-e-e. 🎶
Can’t forget this one.
There is no consensus on why the dress elicits such discordant perceptions.[31] The neuroscientists Bevil Conway and Jay Neitz believe they are a result of how the human brain perceives colour and chromatic adaptation.

The interesting thing, for me, is how people’s reactions to the dress sparked that many studies of the phenomenon.
The interesting thing for me is how badly I want one side to be wrong and one to be right. It’s weird that that feeling is there and so strong… for something seemingly insignificant
I mean we do know what color the dress actually was: Blue and black
Me neither. Usually I can twist my brain to see illusions the other way, but even covering up the surroundings doesn’t flip it
