"that dress post is bull[crap] tbh. everyone’s monitor is gonna display colors a little differently." -a user drace follows on tumblr, summing up drace's thoughts on the dress perfectly.

"the other thing about the dress post: because it is a bad photo it’s like playing a guessing game, like, what would this dress look like with a better exposure? and it could honestly go either way. there is a pretty strong yellow tint to the photo making the black look gold, and the fact that it’s washed out doesn’t help. the blue could be taken as “white but with really bad lighting” if you try and judge it relative to the other colors in the photo. i’m not some [frickin] Eye Scientist or whatever but this is like, come on." -the same user
