do you have to handwash when you wash cotton bras? or any type of bras? because i heard that if it's washed with the washing machine, it will ruin the shape and form of the cup and it will get damaged...

I'd only handwash a bra that was really insanely expensive- like a certain Victoria's Secret bra you bought because its exact shape & style mateched a dress, or something. It's honestly not worth the effort; bras wear out before you'd damage them from washing anyways. [ LM's advice column | Ask LM A Question ]
