Same as bras for sheer fabric - skin coloured or nude - white shows through white.

FWIW, I wouldn't keep pants that made me spanx it to wear them. I HATE shape wear though. It is not comfortable, and my skin can't breathe. It is just a modern corset. Would a guy ever tolerate shape wear?

I size up in white pants. Shapewear under pants (or even dresses really) would drive me ape s%@#.

I bought bike shorts like body shaper from gap. It's not as tight as spanx that you can't breath.
It's more like biker shorts. Works out perfectly.
Check it out. I bought in nude.

That's the main reason I shy away from white/light colored skinnies - I just can't stand that cellulite look! - and if I do buy them, I size up so that its not an issue!

I tend to agree about perhaps sizing up instead. The issue with shapewear under white pants is that any line on the thigh is likely to show, at least when you sit down. Even the non-binding types will show a delineation between them and the skin, and that is highlighted more with white pants, even with nude shapewear. So you would have to wear capri length shapewear or something below the knee, which I personally would find to be terrribly hot and uncomfortable - kind of ruining the point of white pants, IMO. I vote to keep searching for a pair that has the proper fit and fabric weight not to show any figure concerns instead of going for shapewear.

Another vote for sizing up.

Sounds awfully hot to be wearing "long underwear" under the white jeans. I looked for two years to find a pair of white jeans that gave me the right skim but no cling fit and no "cottage cheese". I went up one size in to a size I have never worn before in jeans but hey it's not about the number right? They even turned out to be quite inexpensive so that was a bonus. I wore them so much I am going to have to replace soon so it's worth the search for sure.

Angie's advice has always been to size up in white jeans. If you already own these and it's not possible to size up, then the under-shapewear is the only solution I can think of.

Spanx makes a pair for under pants that is like panty hose without feet. They work perfectly for cellulite and panty lines. If you size up you'll get the smoothing w/out the compression.

Nude color footless dance tights. But when it gets warmer, I don't know

I agree with the others -- I have tried on light-colored, lightweight skinnies that give that effect, and there is no way I would buy them and wear them. Way too much work to wear shapewear under jeans! I would say either size up or keep looking for a more substantial weight fabric.

I have been looking for white jeans forever to avoid the cellulite look so although I keep looking I am not finding. If you have a pair and want to keep them, why not simple nude panty hose? THey firm me up enough to wear a skirt and show a bit of thigh when I sit. Else I cannot wear skirts. I feel the cellulite pain with you!
