Why particular types of clothes are suitable for a particular season ?

Dear student,

During summers, we prefer wearing white or light coloured clothes because they reflect the heat and keep our body cool. But, on the other hand the black clothes hold up the heat, so we avoid wearing dark colour cloths during summers. Moreover, cotton clothes are much more comfortable because they allow the body heat to escape outside by keeping our body cool.
During winter, we prefer warm and thick clothes. For example, a wool base layer assists in maintaining the temperature of the body at a comfortable level. Thus, woollen clothes are suitable for cold conditions. Moreover, wool is a very good insulator and a poor conductor of heat therefore they can absorb moisture without getting wet. Also, air are trapped between the fibres of woollen cloths that prevents the flow of heat from the body to the cold surrounding that protect us from chilling winter.  

Regards
