Well, there are several theories about their origin and this is one of them (I made some efforts and checked about them, pretty interesting stuff). One of the theories is pretty romantic, if this is the word - that they are the last defenders of Constantinople before it fell under the Turks and as a sign of grief they started to wear black dresses, slaughtered all white sheep in their herds and left the black ones only.
