The dress is a bistable picture, similar to the Spinning Dancer, which you can consciously reverse the direction of spin with some practice.
To see the dress as blue-black, I first look at the black dress in the bottom-left corner, then shift gaze to the main dress when colour is established.
To see the dress as white-gold, I first look at the sunny regions on the right, then move gaze across, when the main dress goes to white-gold.

It may help to cover or mask the opposite region, when focusing on one side.

For detail, 10 years ago I saw this as white-gold and did not change from that perception. Did not know what all the fuss was about this dress. Today, I saw it as white-gold initially, but 10 minutes later, after two friends saw it as blue-black, I also saw it as blue-black and could not shake it.

It's strange. I'm wearing sunglasses right now and it looks white and gold but when I take them off it looks blue and black.
I see it obviously blue black, but I have some specific accessibility related colour filters on my screen that might influence this.

I can sort of change it. Probably just my TN monitor though.
This was always the real trick. If you have a laptop you can probably tilt your screen to make it change between the two. What angle you use your screen at affects your perception.
The lighter color looks like a blue-ish white, but I can't see anything other than gold for the stripes.
