How to Wash Your Lace Bum Bikini Brief

Quick answer

Hand wash your Lace Bum Bikini Brief in cool water with a mild detergent, then lay flat to dry to preserve the lace and the Midnight Paisley print.

Step-by-step washing guide

1. 1. Fill a basin with cool water: Use cool water (not hot) to prevent shrinking or color bleeding. Add a small amount of mild detergent designed for delicates. Hot water can damage elastic and fade prints. Stick to cool.
2. 2. Submerge and gently swish: Place the bikini brief in the water and gently swish it for a few minutes. Do not wring or twist the fabric—this can stretch the lace or distort the shape. Rubbing or scrubbing can cause pilling on the lace.
3. 3. Rinse thoroughly: Drain the soapy water and refill with cool water. Swish again until all detergent is removed. Leftover soap can irritate skin and dull the fabric. Residual detergent can leave a white residue on dark colors.
4. 4. Press out excess water: Gently press the brief between two clean towels to absorb moisture. Avoid twisting or squeezing hard. Twisting can break lace threads permanently.
5. 5. Lay flat to dry: Place the brief on a drying rack or a towel away from direct sunlight and heat. Never put it in the dryer—high heat can shrink the cotton gusset and melt synthetic lace fibers. Hanging by the waistband can stretch the elastic over time.
