Just that really. I couldn't care less what the colour is but there are far nicer bodycon dresses out there!

It's not as bad when it's blue and black...the other ones are horrible though.

It looks ok in white and gold Grin.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 27/02/2015 17:41

What are you talking about?

IgnoreMeEveryOtherReindeerDoes · 27/02/2015 17:41

I think it would look nice in blue and black but I don't see it Grin

Bowlersarm · 27/02/2015 17:44

I only see it as blue and black, can't see how it can be anything else!

DeepestDarkestRiver · 27/02/2015 17:46

I thought it was a hoax until I asked my 6 year old. He sees white and gold. I see black and blue Shock.

hotfuzzra · 27/02/2015 17:51

I started off staring at it, thinking how on earth anyone could see blue and black, then, slowly before my eyes, it flicked to blue and black.
It's like a magic eye poster (which I never used to be able to do).
And it is from Erdington (aka Turdington) in Birmingham so we shouldn't be too shocked that it's fugly.

I don't get how come there are two pictures on the BBC site side by side, one of each colourway, and I can see both of them Confused.

TheAnswerIsYes · 27/02/2015 18:27

M, is that you?

neepsandtatties · 27/02/2015 18:32

Pixel on the BBC site it is the disputed photo in question (on the left), next to the manufacturer's photo of the dress on the right. Some people when looking at the BBC site see both dresses as black and blue, but superior beings like you and I, see one gold white dress and one black blue dress.

Mrsstarlord · 27/02/2015 18:34

Looks like something that someone in my big fat gipsy wedding would wear Confused

EponasWildDaughter · 27/02/2015 18:36

DD showed me the photo this morning and i saw blue/grey and dark brown. Tonight? White and bronze Confused

I thought it was blue and gold! No one else?

Morelikeguidelines · 28/02/2015 20:24

I have so far seen black and blue, blue and gold and white (ish) and gold. I usually see black and blue though. I think it is much nicer white and gold on the few occasions I have seen this.

Mousefinkle · 28/02/2015 20:46

At first I swore it was lilac and gold but then I looked at it later in the day and it turned blue and black Shock. I don't understand how it works, total mind fuck but yes it is an ugly dress.

Inertia · 28/02/2015 20:52

It looked blue and gold to me.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 28/02/2015 20:53

I've seen black and dark blue and white/very light blue and gold.

AlecTrevelyan006 · 28/02/2015 20:58

I saw a real one today in the shop - black and white version. Looks quite nice - wife liked it.

PrettyLittleMitty · 28/02/2015 21:00

Blue and brown to me?

Lj8893 · 28/02/2015 21:04

I saw white and gold.

i also saw it today in the shop window (everybody who passed the shop looked at it and commented to each other) its not too bad, but i wouldn't buy it!

StayGoldPonyBoy · 28/02/2015 21:11

It is ugly, I still can't comprehend this though. It's blue and black to me and I just can't possibly see it as anything more. DH says it's turquoise and brown

HayDayRookie · 28/02/2015 21:16

velour Yup, Gold and Blue. Everyone else is wrong. ;-)

ChrisMooseAlbanians · 28/02/2015 21:17

YANBU Grin

I am seeing blue and black... I don't understand how people are seeing white and gold.

Catsize · 28/02/2015 21:48

My partner just said it's grey and green. Help...
