The Dress

The colour of this dress is driving the internet absolutely insane

Is it black and blue, or white and gold? ARGH.

ARE YOU READY TO be driven mad for the rest of the day? Just try to guess the colour of this dress.

Guys please help me – is this dress white and gold, or blue and black? Me and my friends can’t agree and we are freaking the f**k out.

The debate over whether the dress is black and blue OR white and gold has sent the internet into turmoil. Really.

Some people are seeing black. Some people are seeing gold. A special few people see both.

And another used a computer programme to pick out the colours our eyes couldn’t see.

So, what colour do you think the dress is?
