I bought these with a larger waist size for maternity wear, but I ended up wearing only dresses. I don't think I'll wear them anymore after giving birth because they'll be too big, so I'm selling them. I've hardly worn them. There's some fraying around the zipper area from the beginning, but I bought them because it's not visible when worn (see photo 2). White? I feel like it's slightly gray. XL FOUND GOOD I use unscented detergent. No pets, no smokers.
