Underwear handling tips 

Such delicate underwear articles as corset lingerie need special care. 

Usually, women do not trust the washing of bras to washing machines. However, machine washing is quite possible on condition of setting a delicate mode. If you put a bra in a special laundry bag, there is no need worrying about non-removable build-in pads. In case you deal with removable ones, you can hand wash them in warm water. You should not tumble dry a bra as its shape can be irreparably damaged. When drying, a bra should be clipped by a band (corset) part. 

The more lingerie you have, the longer it will serve you. Moreover, a viraety of models is the guarantee of a perfect bra choice for different occasions. One thing is certain: good lingerie, apart from giving a woman additional confidence, adds to a woman a certain mystery, some kind of secret which a man trys to solve. 

Garments handling advice depend not only on fabric composition (cotton, polyester), but on fabric texture (interweaving), surface facture (raised, smooth etc.), trimming method (print, pastes and others), type of garments (bras, dressing gowns and others). For example, polyamide cloth is not shrinkable and is machine washable with an adjusted normal mode, but to retain a bra shape, a normal machine washing is inadvisable, as the item includes a number of different fabric pieces (from lace to foam and frame). 

In case an item is made of different fabrics, the one demanding most delicate care should be first minded.
