'Underneath'
Natter 36: But We Digress...
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I solve all this by just not wearing white.
I agree that the right coloured underwear (top or bottom) shows through less than white. White's an obvious compromise. However, I've never found the right colour underwear, so it's always "Oh, she's wearing brown/beige/yellow panties!" I figure the simplest choices were a) wear opaque bottoms or b) match the clothes to the undies.
I am trying to be adventourous in my clothing choices. I am sick to death of jeans, black or brown pants/skirts. Hence, my new white skirt and my new white linen capri pants.
I like white and off-white skirts. They're summery.
skirts should be lined. that is my answer, as for pants. I am much less likely to have white pants. I think the only ones I have are jean capris.

White, ruffly blouses. Worn with jackets, so I don't have to consider owning a bra that isn't black or blood red.
The closest I have to a white skirt are the various b&w stripey skirts, all of which are in very opaque fabrics.
At this ball/dance thing I went to with Dad there was a woman wearing a white gown. It didn't fit right becuase not only could I tell she was wearing a thong, when she got up and moved past me I could sort of see the outline of the front -- it probably had lace on it.
And then she crossed in front of an open door, back lit, and the dress went transparent.
I am right now wearing white panties under a gauze skirt that is more eggshell than white but still pretty darn light. But I am behind a desk.
My mom taught me to wear beige bras under white shirts, but not as a rule.
My white pants need mending but I love them for being all summery looking. They are also quite opaque.

No, wait, I fibbed. I have four or five white Giant Skirts of Doooom! that were liberated from thrift store wedding dresses. Since they are always worn with petticoats, there is no chance of my underthings being seen.
