Considering the shift in dress policy (i.e. jeans) at EY: what are your thoughts on women wearing white jeans in the office?

Why is this even a topic? Jeans are jeans... wear any kind of jeans... just like you can wear any blouse, top, shirt... as long as it's not too revealing, ripped, or whatever. I wear burgundy jeans, black jeans, gray jeans... white are not really my thing.
If you look decent in white, wear them.
If you can't be trusted to pick the right jeans, how in the world did you get that B4 job?

You should be ok with white jeana as long as it is actual denim material. Ofdices tend to frown on white anything because it can be a bit revealing for men or women. So to avoid problem or flat out saying why no white jeans, they said traditional jeans. Let's face it, some people love to push or flat out rip the envelop.

The policy clearly states blue/traditional jeans. S o yes, man or woman, it might be frowned upon.

I am sorry. I have seen guys as worst offenders of too tight jeans. I do not need to see the outline and which side it lays on. Worst time dude was standing and I was sitting at my desk and it was right there . It was a partner and I wanted to bust out laughing and tell him stop wearing your jeans that tight.

Well if we're ruling out white jeans let's just cross black and gray off the list as well
