Here's the dress from a British retailer that started a social media debate - it's clearly blue and black
The dress that launched thousands of existential crises Thursday night is from British retailer Roman Originals, and the photo on the store's website makes it very obvious that the much-debated-about dress is, in fact, blue and black.
The controversy started on a Tumblr page when a user posted a photo of the dress with the caption: "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."
Soon, much of the internet had joined the debate. It got heated.
Here's the photo from the Tumblr page:

Lighting and background color make a significant difference in how you perceive the dress - in the second photo from the website, the dress looks like a more vibrant blue.
You can buy the dress for £50 (about $76).
