 Note that I took back my comment about the single sample - the two samples
are the original dress, and the photograph of it.

That's not correct. Metamerism, by definition, requires two samples.
Your example of the dress and it's photo reproduction is correctly
considered metamerism. You have two samples--the dress and the reproduction!
Poor example to make your case. ;-)

Well, not "all" of the original colors by a long shot, but many more than
you would expect from a two color reproduction.
