Why do we wear white or light-coloured clothes in summer and dark-coloured clothes in winter?

(N/A) Substances of dark or black colour are better absorbers and emitters of thermal radiation compared to light-coloured substances.
In summer,light-coloured clothes absorb less heat and reflect most of the solar radiation,which helps in keeping the body cool.
In winter,dark-coloured clothes absorb more heat from the surroundings and the sun,which helps in keeping the body warm.
