To use this bra, simply put it on like any other bra. Make sure the straps are adjusted to a comfortable length and the cups fit you well. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to hand - wash this bra in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the lace. After washing, gently squeeze out the excess water and lay it flat to dry. Don't wring it out, as this can misshape the bra. As for storage, keep it in a drawer or a lingerie organizer to prevent it from getting wrinkled or damaged.
