Question

Why do we wear light coloured clothes in summer and dark coloured clothes in winter

Open in App
Solution

  1. We wear light-colored clothes in summer because light colors reflect heat which helps our body to keep cool
  2. Dark colors absorb heat which is why it is considered to wear dark-colored clothes in winter. Dark surfaces absorb more heat and, therefore, we feel comfortable with dark-colored clothes in the winter.
  3. Light-colored clothes reflect most of the heat that falls on them and, therefore, we feel more comfortable wearing them in the summer.
