Bra washing help please

What you REALLY need is possum fur nipple warmers.

Seriously ...

I am not making it up!

This company offers excellent service, even though they are based in NZ.

Although I confess I do not own any nipple warmers ... just silk vests and socks, and one beautiful pair of Big Silk Knickers!

...But they're made of real fur. Despite what it says in the blurb I don't like the idea.

How much do they charge for delivery do you know? I'd like another peg carousel and we don't have Kleeneze round anymore.

I don't think they do mail order from what I gather from the website. I think you have to buy throught their distributors.
Just found this on Ebay though: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BRA-SAVER-Protect-Your-BRA-with-BRA-WASHING-BALL_W0QQitemZ120127455573QQihZ002QQcategoryZ300QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p1638.m118
With the postage it's the same price as the Kleeneze one.

I`ve ruined 2 of my best bras because i washed them in machine without a net bag thing.A wire has come out on both of them.
Has anyone any idea how to keep the wire back in, i`m having a devil of a job trying to do it?
thanks

Hand washing is the only way - a lot of stores won't refund bras where the wires come out if you use the washing machine. Once the wire has found a way out, it's out to stay I believe, unless you sew the little gap back up!!

http://www.braballs.com/index.htm This product seems to have fantastic reviews, although it is quite expensive. I'm 32E and they say it is only suitable up to a C cup. Has anyone given it a go?

I have found some success with washing the M&S t-shirt bras, the ones with barely any padding and no wiring. No wodge of foam to buckle in the wash

I've successfully repaired an "escaped" wire by sealing the hole with a blob of superglue! Often the hole is too small to stitch properly and the wire breaks through again.

Superglue?!

you could try looking in la senza or online at Bravissimo, i regularly buy from these two places and have never had a problem. x

I saw the exact same product in Spain recently for about 2 Euro. I wish I'd bought one!

If anyone happens to be going to Spain, there is a chain of Chinese shops selling cheap stuff (a bit like Poundland)- I saw it in one of these!

I bought new t-shirt bra's from M&S when they were recently buy one and get the other half price and they were still expensive all in all however I just wanted to say that I have the same problem and wonder if it is a manufacture problem I was actually going to take the one back as the assistant said at the time when I purchased them that once I washed it it would go into shape but it never has.
