White is considered a summer color, and summer traditionally ends (as a social season) on Labor Day.

It's really not the case. It's supposed to be, not to wear white "in excess" after labor day. Meaning, you can still wear white, but not an entire outfit or anything.

I too, have always wondered this.
I like (and strive) to be different (and walk to the beat of my own drummer) and wear white all year long. (Ergo: Winter White).
Have a lovely rest of the day.

Tradition so as not to show up the ones wearing black.
Think out of the box, wear bright red. Silly traditions. :)

....Because of the color white being a summer color,as it reflects the light and not suitable for winter month warmth.

Because white gets dirty when you walk through rain, snow, slush etc.

Because it's a dumbass tradition and will shock conservative people who follow their traditions religiously.
