  • On 28 February 2015, Roman Originals announced that they would make a single white and gold dress for a Comic Relief charity auction.[31]

    Oh man, MAJOR missed opportunity there! They sold out of the blue and black ones like overnight, they should have fast-tracked a white and gold version production to hit the shelves ASAP and enjoyed the flood of purchases.

    I did the color picker thing too, and its result was blue and orange. Not super helpful to this particular global controversy, but was worth a shot.

    IMO the color of the actual physical dress is kinda moot: photographed (poorly), digitized, and presented to the world on billions of screens with completely different settings for things like color saturation, and the color of the thing that hits our eyes is not necessarily indicative of the color of the original.

    The color of the dress in the photo was not the same as the color of the photographed dress.

    It was white and gold! sprints away
