So this is just weird and apparently nearly broke the internet overnight. Simple question - what colour is this dress?

I'm not sure after reading the article, despite the proof The dress it's supposed to be  It's clearly not, it's some shabby rag in comparison. Click to see full-size image. |

 That's what I thought - also their explanation would surely mean that this would be a fairly common occurrence (?), but I can't think of any other time where different people have seen such radically different colours on a picture.

I think that's the weirdest thing about it, but i guess in other cases where the same might apply there has simply been no need for anyone to comment on the colours of a photographed object. i still don't really understand why the science doesn't apply across the board

It looks like when you take a bad photo of snow and it goes a bluey colour. You can still tell it's white but it has a blue hue due to the bad photography.
Dress is blue in that Andrew, I'm sure on that one.
