Quick answer
Hand wash your maternity high waist brief in cool water with a gentle lingerie detergent, then lay it flat to dry. Store it folded or rolled in a drawer away from direct sunlight to preserve the stretch lace and high waist fit.
Why proper care matters for maternity lingerie
Your body changes throughout pregnancy, and a maternity high waist brief is designed to adapt with you. The signature stretchable lace and high waist panel need gentle handling to keep their elasticity and support. Harsh washing or rough drying can break down the fibers, causing the waistband to lose its shape or the lace to snag.
Because these briefs are worn close to your skin during a sensitive time, using the right care routine also helps avoid irritation from leftover detergent or fabric softener residues.
Step-by-step care routine
- Hand wash in cool water: Fill a basin with cool water and add a small amount of gentle lingerie detergent. Submerge the brief and gently swish it for 2–3 minutes. Do not wring or twist the fabric. Hot water can shrink or weaken the elastic fibers in the stretch lace.
- Rinse thoroughly: Drain the soapy water and refill with fresh cool water. Swish the brief again until all detergent is removed. Repeat if needed. Leftover detergent can irritate sensitive skin and cause the lace to feel stiff.
- Press out excess water: Lay the brief flat on a clean, dry towel. Roll the towel up gently and press to absorb moisture. Never twist or wring the lace. Twisting damages the scalloped edges and can distort the high waist panel.
- Lay flat to dry: Unroll the towel and place the brief on a drying rack or a fresh dry towel, reshaping it to its original form. Keep away from direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers. Heat from dryers or direct sun can break down the elastic, causing the waistband to lose its supportive fit.
- Store folded or rolled: Once completely dry, fold the brief gently along the seams or roll it loosely. Place it in a drawer with other delicates, away from hooks or rough fabrics that could snag the lace. Hanging by the waistband can stretch out the high waist panel over time.
