Ok, this one is for the girls who wear under wire bras...don't you hate it when you have a nice comfy bra & then the wire finds a spot to come out? You then try to fix it by mending the hole & so it finds another spot to come out?? So in turn, you just have to throw the bra out...i have come to the conclusion that it's just a waste of time to mend a bra that does this the first time. What do you do? Do you mend it or just throw it out?

If it can be mended, then I usually try to mend it. But I'm not good at sewing so I don't do a good job of mending. I end up throwing it away and buying a new. I hate it coz sometimes I love some pair of bras and it's such a waste.

Me too...I think this is why I have some to the conclusion that it's just best to bin the bra & forget about it

He He, yes this happens to me a lot. My scaffolding often gets hloes and I do endevour to sew up the holes, but you are right, the wire eventually creeps back through or finds another place to pop through. I just try and stitch it all back in place using lots of thread but after the third attempt I usually bin the bra and go out to buy some more.

I also find that when it gets stitched up too many times, the stitching digs in & hurts too

Honestly this has never happened to me but if ever it will I will definitely be pissed.

You are lucky that this hasn't happened to you yet.

I DO hate it!! Especially when you get it out of the washing machine and it has managed to put holes in the t shirts!!!!! I usually mend them unless they are the ones that are as old as half the members on here!!

What about when the washing machine "eats" the wire?? I hate that too!
