Looking for a White jacket that I can use for skiing and when I'm not skiing. Something for taller people with longer than average arms, I've tried many jackets and all are too square in the shoulders and short in arms and body

You might want to try a more snowboard oriented brand as they often fit a bit longer.
Burton, westbeach or Roxy maybe?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

A white jacket will be filthy in a day! Plus you'll get clattered on a flat light day.

@NewSki, as @spyderjon, states, it will not be white for long, in les carroz if you use the gron chairlift on a snowy day it drips black marks on your jacket all day, some come out, but some don't, I have an old very light grey columbia jacket with tide marks on the shoulders / arms because of that lift.

Just given away a pale jacket because it was minging after a week, especially on the cuffs.
Judging by the stinky people in lift queues some people don't care about the cleanliness of their clothes... not suggesting that is you... and maybe if you only ski for a couple of days and don't chuck your jacket in a dark corner during apres you'll get away with it.

Eider used to do their Shaper jacket in white. I cant imagine it was that popular a seller so you might find one of those languishing in a sale somewhere.

spyderjon,
I second that. I had a couple of near misses last season when I couldn't see "camouflaged" skiers in bad light.

I suppose if you break the colour scheme up with bright colours ..helmet,gloves and Keck's should be visable.

Yeah I had a white ski jacket. Was a massive mistake. It got covered in stains straight away. Snow is absolutely not clean, something you only realise when you wear white for the first time.

I think you're probably not supposed to actually ski in them
