Are you infuriated with the way your bra fits? Despite the fact that most women wear bra every day, about 80% of women wear the wrong bra. An ill-fitting bra will not only be uncomfortable, but it can actually damage your breast tissue, shape and can even block blood flow.
In reality, some women are still far from being in a harmonious relationship with their bras.
So, here are some bra hacks to make your bra and life more comfortable that you should know:
- Hand wash your bra to make it last longer that is why they are called delicate.
- Never hang your bras outside for too long, rather lay them flat to protect the shape. And never put them in the washing machine.
- Hand stitch an old bra into a backless dress. Use pins when sewing to get the stitching right.
- Build your own strapless bra by using a convertible bra to stop it from slipping down.
- Fix a broken underwire by using a maxi pad or panty liner as a temporary fix.
- Use a paper clip to pin your bra together to make a temporary racerback bra especially if you intend to wear halter neck tops or dresses.
- Turn your bra into a fashion statement piece by designing your own style. You could sew beautiful applique onto your old bra to make it look new.
- When buying a strapless bra, always buy one size smaller than your normal bra size to keep it secure.
- Hang your bras on a hanger to save their form and shape instead of stuffing them in a drawer or bag. But if you must store them in a drawer, instead of folding one cup into the other, stack bras one behind the other. This will keep cups from getting crushed.
