White Out

Wearing White after Labor Day has been labeled as a fashion faux pas for many years… but in today’s modern world does this old school rule still apply?

On Labor Day, I turned to my girlfriend and asked her if she was going to retire her white pants until Memorial Day 2010. Surprisingly, her response to me was yes, probably after this week she would pack up all (15 pairs) of white pants she owns. I could not believe this, when I think of summer and my friend I immediately think of her in white pants! So to hear that she was retiring them for the season baffled me. My friend who lives in LA was sitting with us and she chimed in “I can’t believe this is even a discussion, I wear white all year wrong” Different coasts, different styles…
My take is as long as it’s still warm out, white pants are allowed.. I may even go as far as wearing them into Oct, weather permitting. I did some digging and others agree. Wearing white is accepted and embraced year round and many designers are incorporating white into their fall collection and winter whites for the even colder months…


White After Labor Day Is Ok, TRUST ME!
