BR white denim

Anonymous

Does anyone have experience with the BR white denim and how much it eases out while wearing? I wear a 4 or 6, got the 6 in the mail, they are not tight by any means. They even have some waviness behind the thighs. Do you think the fabric will stretch out alot?
It seems like white denim would look revealing if it was to snug. Would it show the undies through?

San, I bought BR high-waisted white jeans, are those the ones you're considering? I would definitely size down in those. They relaxed quite a bit after I wore them for 15 min around the house, but they didn't really stretch out much after that. I washed them several times on cold and line dried. Hope it helps!

I don't have these, but I have always heard to wear nude under white for a no show panty.:)

I washed & dried my BR white jeans (I have last year's wide legs) twice before hemming and so far so good. They did seem awfully stretchy before I washed them. I've only worn them out once and they seem fine but I think the washing & drying helped.

I am considering putting them in the washer and dryer because they are 99% cotton and 1% spandex. They should shrink unless they are already pre shrunk. All of my other premium denim are a size 4 and these are 6 so that worries me, but the brands are different. Decisions, decisions.

I purchased the BR high waist white jeans in my regular size (4) and am happy with the fit. My one caution to you San is they did shrink in length (more than an inch) when I put them through the dryer -I know I probably shouldn't have dried them, but I wanted them to shrink before I hemmed them. As it turned out no hemming was necessary. I've worn them once and they did stretch a bit, but not so much to be a problem for me.

San, I would try size 4 or maybe even 2. I haven't tried putting them in the dryer, so I don't know what would happen, but I wouldn't risk it. I would also be cautious about shrinking in length. I actually got a tall size and shortened them by just a little - there is no way they are 36'' as they claim.

Great advice, Marianne. Did you try a 4, San?

You've all convinced me that I should go with my regular size. Thankyou for the help!
I believe that I ordered the 6 because they were out of the 4. My quest for white jeans will just have to go on.
We are so lucky to have this forum to help each other.

For sure I would go with a 4 -- BR runs big. Too bad they don't have your size! Maybe if you call the 800 # they will find a size 4 for you in one of their stores and have it sent.

San, do they have size 2? If you wear 27 in premium give it a try.

Oh San, I didn't realize you were sizing up. I definitely wouldn't do that with BR denim. I bought them in my regular size and was worried because they seemed so stretchy when I first had them on around the house. After washing & drying, I feel like they lost some of that initial extra give but they didn't really shrink. Anyway, since I have worn them only once so far, I probably shouldn't be giving any advice.

Have to agree with the others. That skirt I'm wearing in the other thread is a 0 (I am obviously not a 0). I wouldn't be surprised if you were a 0 or 2 as well San.
