White denim is a staple for every summer wardrobe. However, it is also one of the most unforgiving pieces to wear, making the perfect pair hard to find.

There are some key ways, though, to ensure that you not only find some fabulous white denim, but you also look great in it too!

1. Sizing and fit 

I’m a big advocate for not getting hung up on the size of piece and to focus on how it FITS you. Every brand's sizing is different, so don’t feel bad if you have to adjust your sizing accordingly. As a rule of thumb, I usually size up in white denim just because it can be unforgiving and you don’t want it to be too tight. But this all depends on the brand. To ensure I have the right fit, I ALWAYS try on white denim before buying.

2. Material 

For me, the perfect white denim is going to be thicker material with a bit of stretch. This helps it maintain its shape as well as aid with the see-through factor. Thinner material can become see-through – and that’s when you get the dreaded VPL (visible panty line). Also, the thicker the denim, the more forgiving it is going to be on your booty and thighs.

3. Color 

Not all white denim is created equal. Sometimes the coloring is a little off. Trust me: When you go to shop for a pair, lay all of the white denim you try on next to one another and you will see how every pair is different. If you want that perfect, crisp summer white denim, make sure that you get a TRUE WHITE.
