Well, I'm going to get all designer-geeky here, so hold onto your panties. Here's what I think...
The customer service rep is all wrong. He was probably referring to the other girl avatar with the red dress. This female avatar is not wearing a dress at all. It appears to be khaki slacks. And the table does not cast any shadows on the avatars at all.
The illusion of panties-over-jeans is due to poor lighting on the 3D render. The light source is directly in front of her, not above her (evidenced by the lack of a highlight on the very TOP of her head and the front of her face being clearly lit). Now, imagine a bright flashlight pointed at her torso from directly in front of her at crotch-height (mid-section when seated). Her pelvic region faces this flashlight (directly ahead of her), but the TOP of her thighs do not (they face up.. towards the "sky"). So, her pelvis is clearly lit, but the tops of her thighs are still in the dark (since the single brightest light source is in front of her mid-section).
This gives the appearance of light-colored underwear over dark-colored pants.
