It has been suggested that because plants lack eyes they use color perception to avoid harmful radiation. This might explain why green, which is a protective color for plants, is seen by many people as white or pale colored when exposed to sunlight. Conway believes that these differences in perception may correspond to the type of light that individuals’ brains expect to be in their environment.

Women and people aged over 65 were “disproportionately” more likely to see a white and gold dress than men and younger people. This could be due to younger generations spending more time indoors, with the vast majority of jobs these days being indoor office-based roles. For neuroscientists like Bevil Conway, “The Dress” phenomenon marked the greatest extent of individual differences in color perception ever documented.

The brain works to subtract out the extra yellow, in other words to compensate for the colors present in the light rays of the illuminant in order to yield our ultimate perception. Our visual system discounts the information about the light source so that we process the colors of the actual object being viewed. Businesses that had nothing to do with the dress, or even the clothing industry, devoted social media attention to the phenomenon. Adobe retweeted another Twitter user who had used some of the company's apps to isolate the dress's colours. "We jumped in the conversation and thought, Let's see what happens," recalled Karen Do, the company's senior manager for social media.

Those who saw the dress as a blue-brown color probably assumed neutral lighting, the researchers said. Our eyes are able to assign fixed colors to objects under widely different lighting conditions. But the photograph doesn’t give many clues about the ambient light in the room. Or is the whole room bright and all the colors are washed out? Different people may pick up on different visual cues in the image, which can change how they interpret and name the colors.

Rather than seeing the color of the dress itself as either white or blue with gold or black trim, the participants reported seeing a spectrum of shades from light blue to dark blue, with yellow/gold to dark brown/black trim, the researchers found. Nonetheless, when the dress color was a certain brightness, the participants deemed it "white," and when it was below that brightness, they called it "blue." According to Conway's team, the differences in color perception are probably due to assumptions the brain makes about the illumination of the garment so that it will appear the same under different lighting, a property known as color constancy.

Cataracts, colorblindness and eye disease can also alter colors for the beholder. Monet's famous water lily pond painting is thought to have been painted when he was developing cataracts, Lystad said. "The brain is very good at adjusting and calibrating so you perceive light conditions as constant even though they vary widely," he said. Objects appear reddish at dawn and dusk, but they appear blueish in the middle of the day, Stokkermans said. Marie Rogers is a PhD student with the Sussex Colour Group, investigating how colour word learning influences colour perception and cognition.

After seeing those colors close up, my father said he kind of saw a blue tinge in the “white” section, and I realized I saw a golden tinge in the “black” section.

He thinks that it is not giving the brain the usual clues on how to interpret its colors. ” — And we start to argue why it should be white&gold or blue&black.

The philosopher Barry C. Smith compared the phenomenon with Ludwig Wittgenstein and the rabbit–duck illusion, although the rabbit-duck illusion is an ambiguous image where, for most people, the alternative perceptions switch very easily. Friday saw a seemingly innocuous image of a dress go viral as social media users and celebrities battled it out over what color the frock really is. Some users see white and gold while others see black and blue and neuroscientists say the difference is related to how our brains interpret the light coming into our eyes.
