What To Do With Bras That Don´t Fit




   We all have them -- bras that don't fit right. Maybe you couldn't return them, or maybe they are a size you grew out of. They are too good to throw away, so what else can you do? Here are some ideas and resources:

Wear them

   Some imperfectly fitting bras are fine to wear to bed or even around the house (sometimes): too loose bands, slightly big cups, cups that pucker or wrinkle (purely aesthetic issues). Just don 't wear anything with a too narrow underwire or too small cups!

Sell them

   Some good places are Bratabase listings, Braswap and your local clothes sell/swap site (I use Kleiderkreisel which has equivalents in several European countries, click on the flags on the bottom of the page). You can also use Ebay. Remember to upload a couple of good photos and provide as many measurements as possible!

Donate them

    Sometimes a bra look a tad too worn to sell, or maybe you´ve tried selling it an nobody is interested? You can always take it to your nearest clothes donation point, but I always worry that the bras with "unusual" sizes will go to waste because probably nobody will know what to do with a 28DD.
 For this reason I highly recommend Random Acts Of Bras, where you can make someone very happy -- or find a bra for yourself if you are broke.
Reader tip: you can also donate them to freethegirls.com which is a seriously awesome non-profit that helps survivors of sex trafficking.
