Caring for your bra and panties

Caring for your bra and panties

Care:

  • Always read and follow care instructions on the label.

 

  • Hand wash all garments, especially bras with an underwire because wires can be bent, damaged or broken, they may even come out in the washing machine and hurt the machine.

 

  • Use a lingerie wash bag when washing underwear in a machine.

 

  • Wash lingerie frequently to keep it in good condition because perspiration, perfumes and body lotions can mark the fabric, so with regular washing the risk is minimized.

 

  • When washing always choose a liquid or powder specially made for delicate fabrics, make sure all powder is dissolved before putting garments in the water.

 

  • Wash dark colors separately.

 

  • Don’t exceed the recommended washing temperature

 

  • Dry lingerie away from direct heat such as radiators, fires and hot sunshine otherwise they may discolor, especially whites.

 

  • Avoid catching delicate fabrics and laces with clothes pins, use the washing label to fix bras and pants to the wash line.

 

  • Do not tumble dry lingerie unless the care label provides specific instructions.

Wearing

  • Bras should not be worn more than 2 days in a row or twice between washings. The elastic needs to recover in order to continue providing good support and this can only happen after it’s been washed and left to rest.

Storage

  • Always lay your bras flat in a lined drawer to be sure they don’t lose their shaped or snag on uneven surfaces.

 

Traveling

  • Use a lingerie travel bag to keep undergarments together in order to help avoid crushing and to keep the garments from being snagged.
  • Bring a small amount of your gentle detergent to hand wash your undergarments.
