Fashion rules have long dictated Labor Day to be the final time you can wear white, but according to the Farmer’s Almanac, the fashion faux pas has become outdated. Before air conditioners were invented, white and linen clothing were critical for staying cool during hot weather, and as the weather cooled down, darker and thicker clothing became the go-to look. Nothing exudes elegance and sophistication quite like an all-white outfit, though, and as fashion has evolved, so has its flexibility.
