12. The white part does have a blue tint to it, but

I don't see black at all in there. I see more of an antique gold color with a pastel blue color.

Also, if you look at the dress and scroll down from the top, it appears gold and off white. If you look at the bottom of the dress and scroll up, it appears that antique dark gold color and the pastel blue color.

So, I still don't see any black in the dress no matter which way I look at it. I saw the one on one page that was supposed to be in some catalog as black and blue, but I still didn't see the black in it, just a dark antique gold color.

I don't get the argument over it really I wish I could see the black and blue version and actually see the black they claim it is. Maybe my eyes are messed up. I wear a lot of black and know it when I see it. So, it's odd that I'm not seeing it and others are.
