We can all agree that white jeans are a Godsend in summer months. Heat-deflecting, lightweight fabric provides the base for a breathable ensemble in scorching Southern heat, while a flattering shade of white adds an air of crispness to any outfit. When it comes to instantly looking put-together, there’s really nothing a solid pair of white denim can’t do. Pair with classic nautical stripes or opt for earthy neutrals, and your summer uniform is set. White denim continues to reappear as a closet staple summer after summer (or even in the winter, if you’re really daring), both in classic silhouettes and sporting of-the-moment details. Whether you’re a classic gal who prefers a tailored straight leg jean or a trendy lady who never shies away from a raw hem or an eye-catching culotte, we found the best white jeans to up your style game and flatter your body type. That’s right—we’re here to tell you that all body types are fit to rock white denim, and we have proof. Find the best white jeans for your body type below.
Curvy All Over

Straight Figure
If your behind could use a little ‘oomph’, you’ve come to the right place. A pro tip to add a little bit of pop? Look for styles with pockets placed a little bit higher than your average jean to create the illusion of more shape. Vintage-styled denim is your best friend, so play around with fun, trendy details like the distressing and raw hem in this pair.

Petite
5’3” and under ladies, your winning combo of denim starts with a high waist + cropped skinny jean. While instinct might tell you that cropped jeans are your enemy, when styled the right way, they can lengthen your legs to the high heavens. Pair with a tucked-in top and a pair of fun heels for instant height.

Hourglass Figure
If you’re blessed with a covetable hourglass figure, you’ll want to draw attention to the smallest part of your body: your waist. A super-high 10” high-rise combined with eye-catching button details does just the trick, while this pair of white denim is specifically crafted with zero show-through in mind. (Can we get an amen?)

Pear Shaped
If you find yourself at a loss finding the perfect fit of denim through your hips and behind…only to find a big gaping hole at the waist, this one’s for you. Opt for a slim fit jean to accentuate your curves and a high waist to combat the dreaded waist gap. Distressed details and cute cuffs balances the focus in the hip area, while fabric with just enough stretch contours curves perfectly.
