Dealing with colors in Photoshop

Question

Hi there!!I can't add white elements to the hoodies. I don't know if it's a document setting, but the thing is that as soon as I try to add some white element to the mockup it just doesn't show up. I appreciate any help in trying to solve this problem. I leave a link with the .psd of the mockup. Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11g-X5JoZ3s1slf-sAJa9kCT4byp9Dme8/view?usp=share_link

It seems that all the layers with logos are Smart Objects, with another Smart Object within that which, when double-clicked opens Illustrator.

I tried adding a white circle in the Sweatshirt Body on Sweatshirt One by opening to the first level of Smart Object. It doesn't show up even when that Smart Object is saved because the layer is on Multiply Blend Mode. Change that Blend Mode and white shows up.

As it is often the case in mock ups, the design smart object layer blending mode may be set to "multiply", (I can see the group is set to "pass through" but no info on the screenshot for the individual layer, so it's just a guess)

If that's the case, then all colours that are lighter than the colour underneath will not show (white against grey, in this case). Try changing the blending mode from multiply to "normal" and see it it shows now (You'll probably have to tweak the "blend if " sliders in the layer style menu, to make it a bit more realistic - creases showing etc... But you get the gist.)

PS: Sorry I didn't read Jane's answer properly (too early!)
So WHAT JANE SAID!
