Wearing white shirts is the single most important principle of religious Judaism. One might think that wearing a black fedora is more important, but that’s not the case. What is most important in that area is to make sure to wear an outdated form of headgear. Fedora, shtreimel, or any such item will do. As far as white shirts, it is of such importance that a child can be disallowed from a Yeshiva for not adhering to it. Rash”i and the Vilna Gaon, Ramba”m, and all the Tannaim and Amoraim etc… OBVIOUSLY wore white shirts only! We must adhere to these two most important halachos at all times!
