9 Rule-Breaking Ways to Wear White This Winter


It's safe to say that we have come a long way from the "no white after Labor Day" rule. In fact, one of fall's biggest trends involves monochromatic white ensembles. Head-to-toe white proved sophisticated, beautiful, and winter-inspired at J. Mendel and Peter Som. Still not buying that white can feel seasonally appropriate this time of year? We bet you change your mind after scoping our list of this season's most gorgeous and coveted winter white pieces.

    Unlike summer and spring, where white is worn in the most casual of ways, for fall and winter you need to incorporate a bit more form and texture like mohair and lace.
