I've been getting some very nice quality jersey from Fabric Godmother...but white that's opaque enough for decency is not easy. I wear a skin colour cami underneath, or make up the body double...

I had some very good, fully opaque, white cotton jersey from Croft Mill last year. They don't have precisely the same one any more, but they do have
this
at pretty much the same price - it isn't clear from the picture how opaque it is, but they do send samples.
