In a semitropical climate, where January sometimes feels like July, the season’s best color is winter white. In snow country, it takes the form of heavy woolens in shades of ivory and ecru. But in Southern California, the term gets translated more liberally. Even pure-white linen looks right on warm winter days. And then there is the international travelers’ choice: off-white in year-round fabrics for Los Angeles and cities that share its latitude. Actress Valeria Golino, who appears in “Rain Man” with Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise, models the season’s true color.
