...Ask any woman and they will tell you that a girl needs both a little black dress and a little white dress in her closet with matching heels and purse($$$$)....

1. Was this a summer get-together? No, this was a school dance and an excuse to wear something fancier, yet Yang was one of the ONLY characters to wear one, outside of Jaune wearing one to keep his word.

2. And Yet Yang, nor any of the other MC's have worn a little black dress, even when going to a club.

I believe it is you who are attempting too hard to put IRL social norms into a show with limited run-time in which everything down to the last detail must be thought up and storyboarded...

Unless we are to believe that Yang is poorer than Ruby and couldn't afford a custom dress, Yang chose white on purpose, that much isn't really up for debate.

All I am asserting, is that this then means one of a small amount of things:

Either she looks great in white(which she doesn't), She's at an event that calls for it(she wasn't), or it was for a reason specific to the meaning of the White dress.

Now while it is entirely possible this meaning isn't the same on Remnant, it makes no sense to assert that and never explain to the audience what cultural import that has. I'm also not saying the only meaning is virginity, but that the main meaning is innocence(this is not only virginity). There has been nothing in the series to indicate this meaning was not the intended one
