white uniforms

Published

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.:idea:

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!

Beige for a white woman like me. But a heavier fabric makes that unnecessary. http://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!

if you want really no see thru.....try the whites that chefs wear....or food service in general.....they are trousers though, not scrubs....fly front with belt loops and back pockets.....

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

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?! :no:

Skin-colored undies are definitely the way to go with white clothes--not white undies. I only know this from watching an Oprah show a long time ago. I didn't believe it until I tried it--makes a huge difference--almost invisible.

Hi, the link you gave for the uniforms is not right (sends you to an oceanography research site). Do you have the name of the company?

Thanks
