I'd always wondered where the rule came from that you didn't wear white after Labor Day. Here's the scoop, and the truth!
Labor Day weekend has come and gone and summer vacation is officially over. Does that also mean you have to pack up all your white clothing, as well?! According to fashion experts at Bazaar, absolutely not!
This dated fashion rule was started by wealthy socialites back in the 19th century to distinguish themselves from the working class. They viewed white as vacation color only to be worn in the summer.
That elitist thinking has come and gone -- and winter white is hotter than ever. From coats to boots, white after Labor Day is a fashion do, not a don’t! (MSN)
