Bra Care FAQ
Bras, we wear them every day (with the possible exception of Sunday). Yet many women wonder: What’s the best way to wash lingerie? This is a very good question, dear readers. Washing your bra the right way:
-
prevents damage
-
helps to retain its shape
-
makes it last longer
We recommend hand washing:
Use delicate washing powder or liquid (we recommend Forever New), don’t add softener or bleach
Soak bras for 3-5 minutes in cold water (max. 30°), and rinse
Gently press to squeeze out water, do not wring or twist
Lay flat on a rack or hang to dry
But if you must machine wash:
Attach back hooks together to avoid snagging and ripping
Use a bra bather, to protect the underwire use a cylinder bra bather on a cool, gentle cycle (max. 30°)
Wash bras of a similar colour and fabric together
Remove promptly and lay flat on a rack or hang to air dry
No tumble dry! (It makes us cry)
Please note that washing your bras in the machine voids any and all warranty
