The lighting of the room is clearly yellow. The black stripes look to be a very glossy material, which when lit with yellow light reflects goldish. There's no way that lighting turns a white dress blue.

What room? It looks like we're looking at the back of an object that's facing out into bright sunlight.

Whatever the setting is, it appears to be bathed in bright sunlight. That's the important part.

The front of it presumably is. But the back, that we're looking at, seems to be in shade.

Light bounces around. That's the whole point of ray tracing. Even if the dress were not in direct light, the light bouncing around the environment would prevent the kind of shade necessary for that.

That's not clear to me. The dress looks like it's in the shade.

Look at everything to the right of the dress, even to the left. Everything is illuminated with bright, yellowish light.

See, it always looked to me like blue light (or maybe shadow) around the dress itself, where the only sense it makes to my brain is that the fabric is white.

Whatever is to the right and behind the dress is definitely in bright yellow light.

Behind the dress, yes. No one's disputing that. The difference between that bright light and the dress itself makes it look like it's in shadow, at least to some of us.

Yes, and a room with that kind of lighting wouldn't make a white dress look blue. Just the radiant light from those surroundings proves that it can't be in that kind of shadow.
