Lingerie Care 101: How to Wash & Store Your Delicates

Make Your Lingerie Last Longer

Investing in beautiful lingerie means you want it to stay beautiful. With proper care, your favorite pieces can last for years. Here's everything you need to know.

Washing Your Lingerie

Hand washing is best. Fill a basin with cool water and add a gentle detergent designed for delicates. Let your pieces soak for 5-10 minutes, then gently agitate. Never wring or twist 鈥?press the water out instead.

If you must machine wash:

  • Always use a mesh lingerie bag
  • Set to delicate cycle with cold water
  • Fasten all hooks and clasps
  • Never wash lingerie with heavy items like jeans

Drying Tips

Air dry only. Never put lingerie in the dryer. The heat breaks down elastic and can damage delicate lace and mesh. Lay flat on a clean towel or hang on a drying rack away from direct sunlight.

Storage Solutions

Proper storage prevents damage and keeps your pieces ready to wear:

  • Bras: Stack them flat, never fold the cups into each other
  • Bodysuits & Teddies: Hang or lay flat to prevent stretching
  • Robes: Hang on padded hangers
  • Sets: Store matching pieces together in a drawer organizer

Treating Stains

Address stains immediately. For most fabric stains, dab (don't rub) with cold water and mild soap. For oil-based stains, a small amount of dish soap works wonders. Always spot-test first on an inconspicuous area.
