If you are outdoors in a cold polar region during the day what will keep you warmer?

Details: The color is on the outside, the inside you can assume is a neutral gray for simplicity.

@freemo Probably black clothes, but it depends essentially on the albedo of the material they are made off.

@mc well white and black are similar to albedo. White obviously reflects incident light and black absorbs it. If you want the answer I can DM it to you so as not to ruin the vote.
