Underwired bra. Worn twice and one of the wires decided it wanted to break free

Mentioned it offline to a friend and she said this has never happened to her So I am feeling a little victimised

Do you chuck the item when this happens or try to sew it back in?

I'd send it back if you've only worn it twice.

I have wires pop out but only after wearing a bra for ages. Only exception is sports bras which tend to not last as long.

They never sew back in but usually because the little slot they sit in is knackered too. Seems like it might have been faulty after only two wears.

I'd take it back if I'd only worn it twice.

It happens quite often. I'm thinking...

what is this poking up my cleavage....

(swear words) .....

wire came through again!!

I sew them but it tends to find a gap again.

Well those wires have to do a hard job for you

I find bras tend to last longer if you hand wash them - spinning in a washing machine often reduces their strength.

Depends how much the bra cost or how much I like it.

They are so easy to repair. Just do it while you watch a prog later on t.v.

Do some really good tight close together over stitching and bingo

Sending it back tomorrow. Was thinking to visit the store but just seen that my local branch has closed down.

Thanks for the reminder that I need another sports bra too

Finding that little slot is a pain in itself sometimes. I don't get why it happens to me so often. I'm not rough with them and don't use fabric conditioner.

It's so annoying. Especially when it happens in public.

You chose the wrong song... it is not "another one bites the dust", it is "I want to break free"

They should maybe use different wires, according the to cup size.

I have been doing a mixture of the hand wash cycle and actual handwashing.

Maybe I'll have to abandon the machine for them.

On the odd occasion it does happen I stitch up where the wire found it’s way out. Why waste a decent bra!

I also have spare wires if one snaps

I have removed the other one once so the cups would match. Do not recommend.

If it happens often then you may have the wrong size. Check out boob or bust they've got really useful guides on measuring and what bras suit which boob projection

Oh no way, maybe time to try a new brand? And no doubt they aren't cheap either.

Ann Summers are the brand to blame.

For 2022, I'm going to try and not buy any more lingerie at all!

This happened to my oldest and most favouritest bra. In the end it was like whack-a-mole, wondering which hole the wire was going to pop out of next

I get really offended when a bra tries to shank me.

I've found that rethreading the wire back into the bra and sticking a little bit of moleskin over the hole will hold it for a few washes.

Yes for everyday bras I tend to wear ones that are not underwired but designer for bigger busts. Those skimpy underwired bras are only really designed for taking off for sex

Before I lost weight I was a 38ff and was so fed up with bras. If men had to wear them they would be designed better.
