Trousers for the evening - are white jeans banned?!

Going abroad on holiday next month - first time since Covid. I’m really struggling to know what to take for evenings as it would appear that white skinnies are now out of fashion. Previously, along with a couple of dresses, they’d have been my staple, paired with a smart summery top. What are people wearing instead?

Ffs just wear what you like

That’s fine especially on holiday.

Nonsense. Utter nonsense. Women need to stop acting like fast-fashion lemmings. Nobody but nobody has the over-arching power to decide what's'in' and what's'banned', particularly the bloody'influencers'.
High street apes some of the trends from Paris/London et al fashion weeks, and - to sell the cheap imitations - pays influencers to decree their creations 'in' and last season 'out'. Amen.
If one bothered to pay attention to the whole collections during the international fashion weeks, one would find that pretty much every trend under the sun is 'in' in some form or another.
It's the high street that chooses the glimpses they want to push to the masses.
The point of clothes is to show the wearer in best possible light, meaning, accentuate the strengths and hide the flaws.
If white jeans make you look great, fantastic, perhaps update the cut, length or hue as un winter white opposed to brilliant white et voilà, you feel good and looks fabulous!🤓

Loads of white jeans in the shops, although they cannot be practical, I'd he dirty before I'd walk out of the door

I thought this was going to be about wearing them at the evening do of a wedding, under 'don't wear white' conventions.

Absolutely fine to wear what you like on holiday.

Off white straight leg jeans seem to be ‘in’ now if thats any help.

When will white and denim, not be classics. Skinnies aren't "in" but if you look around you'll see that hadn't changed things greatly. Enjoy your holiday!

Thank you all for your wonderful responses - I was bracing myself for a load of suggestions to buy some of these long/floaty/flowery awful dresses that are everywhere right now!
