The Dress (2015)
In 2015 the big question was whether "The Dress" was blue and black or was it white and gold.
In February of that year, about a week before the wedding of Grace and Keir Johnston of Colonsay, Scotland, the bride's mother, Cecilia Bleasdale, took a photograph of a dress at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet north of Chester, England. Bleasdale intended to wear the dress at the wedding and sent the photograph to Grace. The dress was blue with black lace. However, Grace told her mother she perceived it in the photograph as white with gold lace. After Grace posted the photograph on Facebook, her friends also disagreed; some saw it as white with gold, while others saw it as blue with black. After BuzzFeed a created simple poll for Tumblr users, the big debate began. On Twitter users created the hashtags "#whiteandgold", "#blueandblack", and "#dressgate". It was a viral phenomenon.
