thanks for all the info, the last post made a lot of sense,,, being a money saver always tend to buy the cheaper stuff, but am thinking that maybe its been a bit of a false econmy. does this mean that i now have a legit excuse to go and do some undies shopping?!!!:EasterBun ...what more do I need to say?!
its all in the name of medical science.0 -

I put mine in the slow cooker with some water and bio washing powder and let them bubble away for a few hours. They came up lovely.0

Try this older thread - How to get bras white again.
I think the trick is to not wash them too hot.

Hi mrs baggins,
I've merged your thread with the other thread as it helps to keep all the suggestions together.

Hi
If you wash your off coloured bra's with a couple of new yellow dusters on a hot wash it makes them go a nice pale lemon colour!
Ive tried this and it really works

Any ideas how to make my now grey bra white again?! It is one of those synthetic lacey material ones with underwires.
I might just chuck it in bleach but i'm not sure that the material would survive.
Also, does laundry bleach actually bleach like domestic bleach, or does it just brighten the wash like stain removers?

Hi Paula,
There's an earlier thread with some ideas that may help so I've added your post to it to keep the suggestions together.
