Step 1 : Introduction to the question "According to an age-old fashion rule, Labor Day is the last day you can wear what?"
Wearing white after Labor Day has been a no-no in the fashion world for decades, but if asked why, many people wouldn't know the reason behind the strange end-of-summer rule. There is no single explanation for the rule, but there are several possibilities regarding its origin. One common explanation is practical. For centuries, wearing white in the summer was simply a way to stay cool. Another explanation can be traced back to the latter period of the nineteenth century when the fashion industry adopted Labor Day as the natural endpoint for summer fashion.
