Along with breezy sundresses, basic layering tanks, and comfortable sandals, white jeans are without a doubt a warm-weather staple — particularly for those occasions when you want to look laid-back yet put-together.
Not only does white denim just look striking against a tan, but it's also more practical as the temperatures rise, too: light-colored fabric absorbs less heat from the sun, meaning you can stay cool. And did we mention the year-round versatility? (For the record, we support breaking the outdated style rules and wearing white after Labor Day).
But not all white jeans are created equal — and with so many styles, cuts, and even shades of white to choose from, the hunt for that perfect pair for your one-of-a-kind body can feel downright overwhelming. So, to make your shopping experience a cinch, we rounded up the best white jeans for every figure — and 'fit — below.
