Why exactly are we forbidden to wear white on labor day?

Question

i never really knew why. i mean i know what labor day is but what the h**l does it have to do with colors. and would i recieve evil glances and stares if i happened to wear white because i may just feel rebellious that day

Answer 1

Most say you don't wear white after labour day  Because fall is on the way  Time get out new clothes for the season

Answer 2

Even the fashion mavens have put the kabosh to that rule of no white after Labor Day.  Wear whatever you want.

Answer 3

Wear whatever you want.  A long time ago it was etched in stone.  Not any more.  People used to consider white , pastels, etc. for warm months and dark colors for fall and winter.

Answer 4

it doesn't really matter and it only really applies to bottoms. after labor day passes though, it's concidered a cooler season and you should wear darker colors more into the season. once easter comes and it's spring time again, then white is a more accepted color to be worn. i doubt half of the american population understands the "white after labor day" rule, so you won't get any glares. go ahead, do it. i dare you. ;] what's the worst that can happen? the fashion police will come and rip your pants? sure... :D
