Misery loves company! I love hearing that whites is a common issue across the board. While I think whites look beautiful, there's no question black is the easier alternative.
Thankfully, like may others, I had to wear white for my high school leadership ceremony in my grade 12 and 13 years and then for graduation, so I actually have 2.
Unfortunately, one of my dresses is now indecently short and my long linen one from HS grad was worn for my university grad and almost every other Pi Phi ceremony. I've lost two buttons off the back over the years and each time I wear it as an alum, my collegians laugh at me and ask me when I'm going to get a new dress. I've got to get new buttons!
