Bra CPR ..... Once a wire pops is there anyway to save it??

My favourite bra has popped a wire. In the past I've tried a couple of things to fix bras but nothing has worked. Is there a way out there that I've not heard of to bring my lovely bra back to life??

Obviously this is a first world problem :)

Putting a pencil top rubber onto the end of the bra wire makes it not pop through again.

I would love to be able to buy some cheaper bras from somewhere like Primark but their size range (like most high street stores) is so limited. I think their bras only start at a 32 back and only go up to a DD cup!

Primark go up to an F cup.

Still no good I'm afraid as I'm a 30G Grin

Snap SorrelForbes, do you shop at brastop too? Grin

Yes, indeed I do! I have to make myself delete their money off emails to stop myself constantly buying new bras Grin

I swear by Gossard bras, also they are often on Groupon =D

if it's Freya they tend to reinvent the same basic shape in different fabrics so you will probably be in luck.

If it is moulded, it's probably the Deco or one of it's sister bras such as the Taylor

If it's padded but not moulded, then possibly the retro basic plunge?

Otherwise, they have lots of non-padded plunges which seem to all be pretty similar in cut IME.

Bravissimo also have an own brand cleavage bra called the Satine, but it hasn't been out very long.
