May seem a funny question BUT what would you say is the best way to wash bras? I'm guilty of shoving mine in the washing machine with all my other clothes but I know that I shouldn't do this. Is hand washing best? It's such a chore!!

I put all of my underwear into the washing machine on a 30c wash,And it comes out just fine,I can see no good reason for hand washing it when i have a machine to do it for me!!!!

Hand washing is best....but if youre really too lazy you have two options. The better option is to get a bra bag. This is a protective bag you can put your bra in and then you can through the bra right in the wash. The second option is to just throw it in the wash like you're doing now, and then air dry.

i wear underwire bras, and they are sods for the wires coming out in the washing machine and spliting the drum- tut- so i use a little net washing bag, that way im not having to buy a new drum or washing machine every few months! :)

Hand washing is always best.
But without doing too much damage you could safely wash them in the washer on cold, gentle cycle without any other clothes and then hang them on the line to dry.

I put all DELICATE underwear in a pillow and tie it up at the end, loosely, then put it in the normal woollen wash with most other light things. Have always done this - works for me!

At a guess I would read the label attached, however for garments like bras, which need to be looked after, handwashing would be the best call.

Hand washing is best. OR you can put them in a pillowcase, tie it shut and wash them in baby shampoo. It's gentler than woolite and works great! HANG to dry

I was GOING to write: boil them in a pot of water in the microwave, then hang to dry on the kitchen ceiling fan, like Uncle Buck did, but the other folks have much better ideas! :D Also, spandex breaks down with heat.

I know that you aren't SUPPOSED to do it, but are you finding a negative effect? Do the wires get bent out of shape, or the lace gets torn? I put mine in the washer AND the dryer, and they turn out fine. I say use the washer unless it's tearing them up.
