I don’t think that the rule is followed as closely as it used to be but my wife still clings to it. She is in fact horrified when she sees someone in white after Labor Day, especially if his or her shoes are white.

") But I HAVE heard people wondering whether or not it’s appropriate--I know I think of it whenever I do--even though I’ll do it anyway!

If it’s still a hard-and-fast rule anywhere, I would say it would be in the colder climates, and in some areas of the south where people tend to dress more formally in general. But even then, I think it depends on how "cutting edge" you want to be. I’ve seen white shoes, pants and purses popping up in the dead of winter in designer collections.

Especially boots. I think I remember some famous designer had a really neat pair of funky half-boots in their last year’s winter line. (I just Googled "white shoes after labor day" and got over 1,890,000 hits!

My little brain threatened to implode, so I guess you’re on your own as far as widgets for this answer!) .
