It all depends upon what you mean by better.
A white t shirt will keep the wearer cooler because white reflects light, whereas darker colors absorb light. Since light is a source of energy, the absorption of the light energy will increase the temperature of the clothing. During the hot summer months most people want to remain cool, so a white t-shirt will be cooler.
Fashion has followed function in this area and generally white clothing is preferred during the summer. Darker clothing is typically worn most during the fall and winter seasons because it is generally warmer, since it absorbs light rays, and hence absorbs the heat of the light rays.

Is the sky blue because it is foggy?
no. the sky is blue because all wavelengths of its light is scattered except blue. the sun emits radiation and it is absorbed by every object. it has all the colors of the rainbow in them. if you are wearing a blue shirt, all wavelengths but blue are absorbed into the shirt and blue is reflected. if you are wearing a black shirt (this is why it makes you hot in the summer) all of the rays are absorbed into the shirt. if you are wearing a white shirt, none of the rays are absorbed; they are all reflected.
