well personally I wouldn't wear white linen trousers but if I did it would be - b

motherinferior · 04/07/2008 12:45

It kind of depends if you're planning to remove them in front of a hot date. If not, I'd go for B.

misselizabethbennett · 04/07/2008 12:45

G-string. It is the ONLY time I will wear one, but it has to be done.

WilliamGray · 04/07/2008 12:45

NONE

seeing thongs through white linen trousers is gross

JRocks · 04/07/2008 12:47

I have a flesh coloured thong for such occasions - from M&S

littlelamb · 04/07/2008 12:47

B
Am oft mocked by my best friend for my 'fleshies' but tis the only answer under white. Ditto flesh bra under white top.

Winebeforepearls · 04/07/2008 12:47

bright pink pants with 'SEXY BUM' across back in black

billgray · 04/07/2008 12:48

either big white pants or big nude pants. both work well.

Soapbox · 04/07/2008 12:48

On the basis that every single dimple and bit of cellulite shows through with white linen trousers, then I'd wear nude coloured knee length control pants!

motherinferior · 04/07/2008 12:48

I walked, fascinated, up the stairs at a station the other day, behind a women who was wearing a green-trimmed thong (or, as DD1 once called them aged four, 'fangs') under her white linen trousers.

She was quite rivetting, but possibly not in the way she'd hoped for.

WilllamGray · 04/07/2008 12:49

Big nude pants

I have drawers full of big nude underwear

Gok is my God

My answer is: don't wear WLT. White linen trousers are basically see through

(though possibly if you are wearing a longish tunic a la Jemima Khan you may be permitted to wear them).

SheherazadetheGoat · 04/07/2008 12:51

shudder @ c.

don't wear white linen trews, rarely look nice unless you are going for an eighties howards way look.

i bet you do

margoandjerry · 04/07/2008 12:56

LOL at Howard's Way.

I would love to be able to get away with this look but even with the non see through variety as discovered by Malory, a white linen trouser and a fat leg = fashion disaster.

WilliamGray · 04/07/2008 12:57
