i do the same. wash them in a special bag on the delicate cycle and then i dry them on a rack.

Re: since we have been talking about laundry...
I have the bra baby.
I hardly ever use it.. but it does work.
Sometimes John just throws the bras in with the regular wash and I lay them to dry.
Also, I think you could wash them in a pillow case. I wash stockings in a pillow case. Works great!!!
Sometiems I've even hand washed my bras.
I NEED to go bra shopping desperately though!! I'm being stabbed left and right by my underwire!!!

Throw them in the wash... let them air dry on top of the dryer.
The ladies at VS told me I'm nuts but I honestly don't care. I find they take way too long to dry if I try to wash them by hand.

Re: since we have been talking about laundry...
I'm usually really bad about just throwing them in with everything else, but my mom's washer ate like 3 bras! I mean ripped them to shreds! So I've been washing them by hand or separately on the gentle cycle. I need to get a lingerie bag though because I've had enough of it though.

Re: since we have been talking about laundry...
Im lazy and wash them with everything else. I know this will make them not last as long but I buy them at target so really they are one step away from disposable.
As far as how many wears before washing...it depends. Summer when I am sweating one wear. Winter....Ill go a couple of wears.

just use a pillowcase my dear! Don't even bother with a lingerie bag. you can throw them in the pillowcase and tie a knot on the top of the bag (I tie a loose knot so I can open it easier).

I guess I am really bad about washing my bras. I throw them in with everything else in the wash & dryer. I do not have time to be playing around.

I handwash the Victorias Secret ones with underwires and gel...water...padding...sillicone...any type of enhancements I can get my hands on lol. The plain cotton ones or cotton but with underwires I machine wash. I won't even say how long I go because it's probably too long.

Re: since we have been talking about laundry...
I wash my bras on a delicate cycle alone. I wear them multiple times before washing- It really depends on how much I sweat (gross!).

Re: since we have been talking about laundry...
I put them in this mesh laundry bag and wash them with the rest of my stuff. The trick is to make sure to hook the bra backs before you put them in. If not they get tangled.

I will gladly give you some of mine! I don't even want to know how big my boobs will get once I'm pregnant. My mother was a C before she had me and then grew to a D for the rest of her life. I'm a DD
Getting back to the pressing question. I wash them in cold with the rest of my laundry and then lay them on top of the dryer to dry. I go through bras quite a bit.
