See-through white Summer trousers

I just bought a pair of nice casual Summer trousers in white but they are quite see-through.

I am alternating between thinking I am being old fashioned not wanting everyone to see my knickers (and recent hip replacement scar grin) and knowing I will avoid putting them on because I can't help being modest. I am wondering if I should take them back to the shop.

What do others think?

John Lewis and M & S were heaving with them when I was in there this afternoon.

I have a couple of pairs and found that grey underwear (which I used to buy often from M&S) doesn't show through. I always hold them up to the light before I buy them, I hate thin white trousers! If I can see clearly, I won't have them. I do usually wear quite long tops with them though. I've always been careful, ever since wearing a thin white very flared skirt to work and a colleague warned me that flared and thin was fine when I stood still, but as soon as I moved every outline could be seen! I went out at lunchtime and bought a slip.
