Curvy Bralette Care: Keep Its Shape

Quick Answer

To keep your Curvy Bralette’s shape and support for DD+ cups, hand wash it in cool water with a gentle lingerie detergent, then lay it flat to dry away from heat.

Step-by-Step Care Routine

1. Hand Wash in Cool Water: Fill a basin with cool water and add a teaspoon of gentle lingerie detergent. Submerge the bralette and gently swirl it for 2–3 minutes. Avoid wringing or scrubbing the cups. Common mistake: using hot water or regular detergent can fade color and weaken elastic.
2. Rinse Thoroughly: Drain the soapy water and refill with fresh cool water. Swish the bralette until no suds remain. Repeat if needed. Checkpoint: leftover detergent can irritate skin and attract dirt.
3. Press Out Excess Water: Roll the bralette in a clean, dry towel and press gently to absorb moisture. Never twist or wring the fabric. Common mistake: twisting can distort the side slings and elastic band.
4. Lay Flat to Dry: Place the bralette on a drying rack or towel away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Reshape the cups and band while damp. Do not hang by the straps. Checkpoint: hanging can stretch out the straps and cause the band to lose its grip over time.
5. Store Flat or Folded: Once dry, store the bralette in a drawer with the cups nested inside each other. Do not fold the cups in half or stack heavy items on top. Common mistake: cramming into a tight drawer can crush the microfiber and deform the elastic.
