Anyone worked out how to stop bra wire poking through the fabric of the bra?

Bought some underwired bras from M&S and already in just a week I'm occasionally feeling the edge of the wire trying to poke through the fabric and into my boob! Anyone worked out how to stop this from happening, is there any sort of material I can buy to sew over the pokey bits to stop them breaking through?

Grosgrain ribbon sewn over the hole stops the wire from reemerging. Found that tip on here a few months back and it really really works. No more chucking my favourite bras when the wire gets stabby!

@jannier in between the cleavage but only when in certain positions and not all the time...I could well be a G... but I've already got a tiny gape between the top of book and the strap over the shoulder...and E makes my boob fold upwards on itself... it's a normal tshirt full cup bra... it's my fault as I went braless during some of covid at home unless i went out the door and was braless most of my mat leave, because of irritating uncomfortable bras, unless again I left the house. So they got stretched from the top and resemble vases for flowers slightly 😂😂😂

Flexifit bras at marks are comfortable non wired have you tried balcony bras the wire is in a different position

Take them back Op! If the wore pokes through the hole just take them back. I have had to do this several times in the past with M and S bras.
