Just asked my kids (Not around for the first time). One says blue and black/gray and the other said purple and green/gray. I’ve never known anyone who actually saw it as white and gold. Only heard that people do.
That’s the thing, that background can also look like a harsh sunlight, which would typically give you a blue tint. Your brain has to guess which is right.
It’s white/gold if you recognize that it’s lit from behind. So the dress appearing darker is due to there being much less light on it than the stuff behind it.
I can’t see it as blue/black because I can’t make my brain ignore the fact that it’s backlit. But if your brain never recognizes that, then I suppose it would look blue.

It’s so fucking white and gold I think there’s something wrong with you and your children
Look at the background. The lighting is a warm yellow. This shifts blue to white and black to gold.

But it’s not tinted blue. It’s extremely vivid.

They established that its blue and black. I see white and gold but the actual colour was never the debate.
The actual dress is blue and black and even when heavily backlit it just appears to be a lighter shade of blue, but not even close to white.
