Plus, there are five common breast shapes, according to Harrington, and it’s helpful to keep yours in mind when shopping. Either way, Harrington says to keep in mind that cut-and-sewn bras (aka bras with seams) will have more support than molded bras or T-shirt bras. You can get a bra fitting at a boutique or take your own measurements. Then run a cold, delicate cycle - because “heat is the number one ruiner of elastic” - and hang to dry.
When it comes to laundering: “The holy grail is to hand-wash and hang to dry.” Otherwise, Harrington recommends grabbing a mesh garment bag (pssst: we like these), hooking all your bras together, tightening the straps, and putting ‘em in an empty washer. Then that's a sign that it is time for another bra.” Also, if the underwire is popping out…buh-bye. “So if you find that your band isn’t snapping back, your elastic has lost all its recovery and its ability to snap back to its former size and shape. “Most of the support for your bra comes from the band,” Harrington says. Look at the elastic on your bra (specifically at the underband) and see if it’s all stretched out.
