whiter than white
Impossibly clean standard
Whiter than white describes someone or something presented as morally impeccable or beyond reproach—often with skepticism about whether such purity is genuine: Politicians love to appear whiter than white during campaigns.
The phrase can also describe something literally very white, as in laundry detergent advertising promising to make clothes whiter than white.
