Odd bra question...

Kathleen, on February 29, 2012 at 5:37 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 17

Every bra I have ever bought squeaks. I only buy bras with underwire, and I swear, within a few weeks the underwire squeaks! Some of my bras are so bad I can't even breathe without them making this noise. It's embarrassing... haha. I've bought different brands from different stores in different styles and even different sizes and nothing helps! Am I the only one? Any suggestions?

    That's so weird. A squeaky bra! I've never had that happen. Have you tried Victorias Secret?

    I buy from Le Senza, only padded, underwired bras and have never head this problem! Do you have like the best hearing ever?

    I thought I was the only one! lol. My FH makes fun of my squeak. I wear highly padded bras from Victoria's Secret...I'm not sure if it's the padding/underwire combination or what causes it. It doesn't bother me too much I guess I've gotten used to it. But you're not alone =)

    I have tried Victoria's Secret and they do it too! Most of mine are padded, but not very padded.

    @Jennifer: it's not just me because FH thinks it's so funny! He always hears it too. lol

    That's so strange! I've never heard anything from my bras! haha...I wear Victoria's Secret and La Senza lightly padded. I can't even imagine what would cause that to happen!

    I had a post about that a few months ago, just it was only ONE bra ever that was squeaky. It somehow stopped after I washed it once or twice.

    Wash it a couple times with a really good fabric softener it's the friction of the fabric on the wire making the squeeks some times if you use enough fabric softener the sqeeks stop. Not sure why but it helps with my squeeky bras

    I try on every bra before I buy it and if it evens starts to make a noise i dont get it. I havent figured out if its certain types of wires or the material that the bra is made of, but I havent found any recently with that issue...

    I have always wore padded bras (different sizes, brands, even amount of padding) and I have never heard of this! Smiley smile I guess it's because I buy fairly cheap bras?

    I too buy fairly cheap bras, I don't usually wear padded bras either. I have never had a squeaky bra, so weird.

    That is soooo weird -- and must be totally annoying... :oI

    i have to say, i have been wearing bras for about 30 years and i don't recall ever having encountered this!!

    for the last couple of years i have been wearing la perla bras exclusively -- not sure if you have tried them? they are pricey but i love them!

    NotFroofy says that typically happens if the band is a little too tight. Have you had yourself professionally measured?
