Witches concrete over the cracks of literary shortlists

SCOTLAND: A two-tone dress marketed as being “bang on trend” has lived up to its billing — by sparking a global debate on Twitter over what colour it is.

The figure-hugging frock has divided opinion across social media, with some people viewing it as black and blue and others claiming to see white and gold. A picture of the £50 (€70) knee-length dress is reported to have first been posted online by Caitlin McNeill, 21, from Scotland.

Although Birmingham-based Roman Originals describe the dress as being royal blue and black, friends of Ms McNeill had noticed several different colours in the garment.
