white uniforms

I recently purchased my scrubs and you can see right through them. What is the best thing to wear under them?

White T or tank under scrub top. White granny panties on bottom. If you buy the higher quality scrubs, like landau or urbane, the material tends to be thicker and less see-through.

Re: white uniforms

I swear by beige (or skin tone) underwear and bras! At my hospital, we also have to wear all white. I wear beige undergarments, and you cannot tell I have anything on!

Re: white uniforms

Beige for a white woman like me. But a heavier fabric makes that unnecessary. www.jasco.com carries a "can't see through me" line.

I've found that the beige or white "boyfriend-cut" undies work well too. No panylines to worry about and they keep everything where it needs to be!

Have you tried the "can't see through me line" and if so, are they any better/thicker? I just found out I have to wear white for my new job and the last thing I want to do is show the world my undies!

Re: white uniforms

Yes, they help. And wear beige or other skin-colored drawers underneath.

Re: white uniforms

I was just coming over here to ask this.. LOL! I found out tonight I need ALL white for my CNA classes starting in 2 weeks.. and I was like.. EEP. I guess I need new undies too, as most of mine are black or dark colors.

Am I the only one who panics at the first thought of wearing all white and the time of the month where you want to wear ANYTHING but white?!
