What to wear under white trousers

Bought lovely pair of white cotton trousers which always seem to look lovely on other people. I am between size 14 and 16 and don’t wear them because I can’t work out what to wear underneath! Nude pants are visible....help please.

I would have said nude, flesh coloured pants. Perhaps the no vpl ones or a thong. If nude show maybe try white or cream and go with the ones that show the least. Or go commando...not that I would!

Well apparently you can't see a red bra under a white top. Maybe it would work for pants too?

I'd have said nude pants as well because a nude bra doesn't show under my white t-shirts.

It's about shade not colour, the same rule applies to bras under white tops.
To 'disappear' they need to be as dark as your skin tone or a little darker. For me (Asian colouring) I've got knickers in a dull red and a jade green that both work well.

Yep, nude tone undies need to be a shade or two darker than your skin tone to not show.

Married am going to have to check out the dull jade green. I have some dairy milk chocolate coloured stuff that just vanishes under light clothes.

The other option is white short style knickers like these, but white and just accept that they might be visible.

M&S do high waste nude No VPL knickers. I find them best for smooth lines under white trousers.

Always nude
