White jeans and pants are the real first sign of spring.
But the joy is mixed with archaic jitters.
Wearing white anything still puts us on high-stain alert (coffee dribbles!
makeup smears!).
Fabric content is key.
The classic cotton/two percent spandex blend will move with you and hold its shape and yours.
No thongs necessary either way.
The thick fabric makes hipster, brief or girl short undies (even in black) undetectable.
White pants should be ankle cropped and semitailored.
We’re done with excess fabric at the belly and booty, as well as dirty hems.
Look for a real waistband (with fly and zipper) that sits at your natural waist.
Go by how it looks and feels since the fabric tag will likely say polyester/spandex.
Check it in daylight for opacity, and consider a skin tone shapewear slip for extra control and density.
