Looking at the shot, it's obvious to me that the camera auto-white-balanced on the sunlight outside the window and whatever indoor lighting reflecting on the back of the dress turned it a shade of blue. No sweat, I fixed it:

No, that's the thing, apparently it IS blue. I see it as white and gold. The rest of my family sees it as blue and black.

Whoops, was it? Then delete it by all means. I've been disconnected from the news all day -- I just had a friend show it to me on her phone today.
