Re: No white after Labor Day?
It supposted to be a "fashion no no". I don't believe many people go by that rule.

Re: No white after Labor Day?
Yea, but I don't get why it's a fashion "no-no"...

Re: No white after Labor Day?
Neither do I...maybe white is a "summer color" for pants.

Re: No white after Labor Day?
I found this article that says:
Originally, the rule was more along the lines of "Only wear white shoes between Memorial Day and Labor Day.".............white shoes "are for Easter Sunday and not the dead of winter."
The only logical reasoning we could find cited temperature. Image consultant Nancy Penn suggests that because white reflects light and heat, wearing white would make you cooler in winter, and thus should be avoided................
Click here for source.
I guess it makes sense... light/white colors should be worn in summer, and not winter... so I guess that's where the fashion 'no-no' originates from.

Re: No white after Labor Day?
I always thought the rule was more towards shoes and handbags than actual clothes.
