HOW do you wash white bras?
They get so icky and gray....I tried bleaching them but that didn't work....they're underwire, so I don't want to actually put them in the washing machine....any ideas?

I use a mesh bag and always machine wash them. use the gentle cycle.

I wash them in the machine in a regular cycle and hang to dry.

Another vote for washing in mesh bag and drying in the sun. The sun, at least here in Israel, is the best bleaching method I know of. Gets out a n y t h I n g.

That's why I only buy black or beige/champaign colored bras. They always look clean!

I second the beige solution.
assuming you're Caucasian, beige bras also blend with the color of your skin and don't show through light-colored blouses. White bras often do.

If you're afraid of using the machine and are hand washing them, you should know that the delicate cycle on your machine is pretty much the same thing. Do NOT use bleach. Spray it up a bit with oxyclean and wash it on delicate, hang to dry.
