The Pants Wardrobe

Great Whites

If you like your pants pristine (Signe Nordstrom adores white's "crisp and elegant" multiseasonal appeal), pick a wide-legged pair in a thicker stretch cotton (Premise, $285) so the pockets—and your panty lines—don't show through. Navy on top (Premise, $295) is a smart contrast; beige and white accessories (bag, Hogan; shoes, Prada) are super useful for summer. Ring, Anna Ruth Henriques.
