We found 8 pairs of white jeans that Nordstrom shoppers say aren't see-through

Memorial Day is just around the corner, which means two things: Summer is officially on its way, and it's about to be white jeans season! Light-colored jeans are a quintessential warm-weather fashion staple for good reason. They are wildly versatile and can be styled in a ton of ways. Toss on a pair with a plain T-shirt and flip flops for a casual daytime look, or grab your favorite heeled sandals and silky top for an evening out. Not only do white jeans feel especially fresh and crisp during the hotter months, but they look great on everyone.

That said, it can be tough to find a flattering option that isn't see-through, and the mark of a truly great pair of ivory denim bottoms is being so opaque that you can't see panty lines or pockets peeking through. Luckily, Nordstrom has a massive selection of white jeans — more than 600 pairs. To help you embrace this summer staple as quickly as possible, I did the legwork for you and found eight options in stock in a wide range of sizes and styles. Most importantly, each received praise from Nordstrom shoppers for not showing anything you don't want the world around you to see.

These are the perfect balance between a skinny jean and a straight-leg style. According to shoppers, these pants fit true to size, and I love that you can dress them up with a polished cardigan or blouse or cuff up the bottoms for a more casual vibe.

One pleased shopper raved, "These are the perfect white jeans, which is why it's hard to find your size in stock...but if they are in stock, buy them! [They're a] classic cut that will never go out of style, thick enough so they aren't see-through but not so thick that they'll be too hot in the summer." (Editor's note: All sizes are currently in stock.) 

Another agreed: "Love the fit of these jeans. They are super comfortable and not see-through."

Add a little vintage flair to your denim collection with this high-waisted pair. Stretchy and true to size, these look just as good with summer sandals as they do with your favorite sneakers. I've been wearing Rails blue jeans for years, so you can bet that these were instantly added to my cart. I've found that the brand's denim only gets better over time and holds its shape even if I wear them a few times a week (a fact that also justifies their higher price tag, IMO).

One shopper deemed these the "perfect white jeans" and declared that the "fabric is super soft and flexible [and is] also not transparent."

These are also great for those who are looking for lighter-colored denim that isn't a stark ivory: "The color is perfect. Not a bright white but an ecru, which can be difficult to find!"

These slim-fit jeans hit right at the ankle, making them a good option for those on the shorter side. And, while polished, there is some subtle fraying at the ankles for a bit of a style edge. Finally, the brand's 'Ab'solution power-mesh panels work to hold your tummy in without being overly constricting. 

One Nordy shopper, who gave these five stars, called them the "perfect white ankle jeans" and wrote: "Fits beautifully. Slimming, not tight, and not see-through."

These high-waisted jeans will help flatter your figure thanks to the brand's popular Fab Ab front pockets that gently shape the tummy area. The polished waistband and wide-leg silhouette work together to look casual yet still sophisticated. 

"This is a great white jean. ... They are a nice soft, spring/summer weight ... not hard, scratchy or too heavy. The fabric fits well and has stretch. You cannot see the pockets outlined in the front and they are not see-through in the back," shared a happy customer.

Still hanging onto your favorite pair of skinnies? I don't blame you! Sometimes you can't beat tried-and-true denim that makes you feel good. This distressed pair hits right at the ankle, and several reviewers praise these for being stretchy and comfortable.

"WOW, these are cute. Glad I sized up. Perfect for summer festivals and concerts. I struggle with white jeans being see-through. These are not! Very happy," raved a five-star fan.

Madewell is known for its top-quality denim, so the brand's sleek cropped jeans were an easy choice for this list. Casual and slightly baggy, these have a low-rise fit and cool raw hems to give them a bit of stylish grit. I usually size down in Madewell denim as they tend to stretch out a bit over time, and another shopper agreed.

They wrote, "These pants are great! High quality and thick, so you can’t see through. They do run huge, however. I’m usually a 27 and they were falling off of me. I exchanged for a 25, and they are still a little big around the waist."

Don't let the name "mom jeans" fool you — this decidedly not-dowdy pair is for anyone looking for cute white bottoms that are figure-hugging without being skintight (and the raw hem gives them added street-style cred). 

"These are great. I didn’t size up in them like I sometimes do with white, and the fit is wonderful. Thick enough to not see panty lines or pocket outlines. ... Very comfortable in the waist," shared a contented customer.

NYDJ makes notoriously flattering jeans and this wide-leg pair is no exception. The brand's lift-tuck technology works to make your behind look amazing while also flattening your front. They come in three other shades, including beige, pink and a pinstripe, so if you love this cut, I won't blame you for stocking up.

One five-star fan wrote: "... Comfy, stylish, stretchy (but not too much), not see-through and don’t show every lump or bump. Until now, I always thought that kind of white jean was a unicorn!"
