The picture of the two-tone dress has become an online sensation - with internet users taking to social media to argue over whether it is white and gold, or black and blue.

The human eye and brain together translate light into color. Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. Rather, the surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others. Your eyes "know" this, but your brain tells you a different story.

And he found that 'larks' - people who rise and go to bed early and spend many of their waking hours in sunlight - are more likely to see the dress as white and gold. Researchers suggest that people who wake up earlier are significantly more likely to see the dress as white and gold, compared to those who love a lie-in. That the differences in color perception are probably related to how our brains are interpreting the "quantity of light that comes into our retina." She sent the image to the bride-to-be, who shared it with her groom. They were the first people to disagree over the dress's colours.
