i just bought a very expensive bra from victoria secret and i dont want it to get ruined in the wash...my grandmother said to stick it in a towel or pillowcase and wash it with my regular clothes and not to dry it and my stepmother said to hand wash it...which causes bras to get distorted, dented and overall destroyed..is it the wash or the dryer or both? if i hand wash it with regular detergant is that ok or should i use the woolite delicate wash soap...please help..i dont want to have just wasted $80 :( thanks

All my bras are from V.S. I wash them in the sink with a mild laundry detergent such as Ivory or Dreft. I then place flat on a towel to dry. Don't wring the bra out. It will create crevices or lines. NEVER wash in the machine. You will be sorry!

Hand wash it. Soak it in delicate wash detergent for about 1 hr, hand wash it by gently rubbing it. Gently squeeze out the water and hang dry in the bathroom or under shade outdoors. Hang it by the middle of the cups.

I fold one cup into the other, put it in a nylon wash bag, on a regular or gentle cycle, depending on your washer. I always line dry them.
(Hanes Outlet stores sell a wash bag of some sort, thats where I got the idea to fold one cup into the other, for added protection.)

Hand wash then press it gently between folded towels, hang it to dry ( no metal hangers)
My , I wish any part of my body was worth 80$ Other than my decrepit back !

I usually do mine in a mesh wash bag (so the hooks don't get stuck on your other clothes) machine wash on gentle and then lay flat to dry.
