"Pantygate" is one of the most infamous and drawn-out scandals in The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills history, serving as the central conflict of Season 7.

The drama began during a white party at one of Lisa Vanderpump’s restaurants. Erika Jayne (then Girardi) wore a short white dress and chose to go "commando" to avoid visible panty lines (VPL).
