Yes, lighter colors on clothing will fade faster than dark because there is less dye used to color the lighter clothing. If you are using darker materials, there is more dye that needs to be penetrated through before the color starts to fade. This is generally the same for other materials as well.
Sunlight also contributes to the fading of the colors, the exception being flowers. Flowers use a process called photosynthesis to absorb the sun's energy and convert it into "food".
