People prefer light coloured clothes in the summertime, because lighter colours reflect sunlight, while darker colours absorb it. In the summertime, people do in fact want to stay cool, so they prefer lighter coloured clothes.

Well dark colored clothes attract sunlight and retain heat, meaning that they're hot. If you wear white or a light color in the summer, you will be a lot cooler than if you wear a black or dark color.

Darker colors absorb more of the sun's light and therefore, more of the sun's heat. Summer clothes are usually lighter colored to keep you cooler.

People prefer light color cloths in summers as light colors reflect out the sun rays or heat of sun from a light color as compared to dark color clothes which allows the heat to pass through the cloth. That is why in winters, we prefer to wear dark color cloths.
