As temperatures steadily soar

and the mercury rises-

‘dress in less’ is the barometer for summer time fashion fun,

particularly that of seaside sartorial style.

menswear, seasonal colour, seasonal dress, spring/summer 2015, summer whites, white - as signature colour, womenswear

In recent years, white as signature colour

transcends any past fashion rules:

the not to be worn as an autumn or winter hue

is no longer adhered.

Today, white coloured clothing is worn year round and

need not hibernate for winter

…

However, there remains something warm-weather, summer-special

about wearing white when temperatures soar.
