What if you only wore it once? What if it still have the tag on it? This goes for regular lingerie as well sports bras. Elasticity and Quality of the Fabrics Over time, the elasticity of the fabric and trims will give out. When you first purchase it, it should be connected to the loosest hook. As a bra wears out, you should put it on the middle hook, and then finally, the tightest hook. When should you put it on the tighter hook? If you machine wash your lingerie, another sign is if the lace or fabric is disintegrating.
Another reason to skip machine washing. Sweat or Stain Marks Eww! Okay, we all sweat. Like two hearty scoops of flan wobbling serenely in their fabric bowls? On a recent inspection, I was dismayed. There, at the bottom of a once-lavender-colored bra I had lived in for the better part of two years, my breasts pooled limply in its tired, gaping cups. From its murky depths, the tops of my areolae gazed up at me sadly.
Once you find ones that work for you, you hold on to them. That was my attitude, at least. As soon as I said it out loud, I realized that maybe I was wrong. How long is too long, though?
In a poll I sent out on Twitter, 28 percent of the more than respondents said they had owned most of their bras for between two and three years; 33 percent said they had owned them for less than two years; and 15 percent said they had owned them for over five years.
As for the state of these undergarments, most agreed they had seen better days. How long can you make it last? Can you keep it forever?? So how long should a bra last? I have had this Clara, by Panache, for almost a year now. Still going strong! In general, a good quality bra that is well taken care of and in rotation with other bras should last about one year.
That was kind of a long sentence, right? When measuring your band size, you should go according to the outermost set of hooks, not the innermost. If it does, it doesn't fit you properly. Insisting on a contour-style bra instead of a softer seamed, lined bra. Contour bras are the molded ones, the kind that keep their shape even when they're in your drawer and that you usually find at Victoria's Secret. Seamed bras are the soft ones with floppy fabric cups that mold to the shape of your breast.
Which one is right for you, says Bobbie, depends on the texture of your boobs. Why does this happen? They work with your breasts to mold to them, instead of your breasts having to fit into a pre-determined shape. Thinking you can wear one bra with every type of outfit. Yeah, you just can't. Certain dresses are going to require a more perky shape, while some shirts might look better if your breasts sit lower and flatter.
Try different bras for each item of clothing you have to ensure you're pairing your outfit with the best bra possible.
