1. What is the climate like that you are going to? Will it be hot and muggy or hot and dry? Either way, if it is hot you will be less comfortable than usual and small irritations will be magnified. You will need to wash your bras more often in a hotter climate as well. We reccomend Forever New powdered wash. It is very concentrated so a little goes a long way.
2. How much rooom do you have in your luggage? Softer cups are easier to squash more of them into small spaces without damage. Whereas molded cup t-shirt bras get permanently creased when they are smushed and if one cup is folded into another.
3. Will you have time to shop for a properly fitting bras if something goes wrong with yours? If the underwire pops out or snaps or the band just gives up on you. Many vacations and trips are on a tight schedual and finding specialty shops can be a challenge.
4. Will there BE anywhere to purchase a properly fitting bra where you are going?I can find a suitable tshirt or pair of shorts to get by just about anywhere but the small town my sister lives in has a selection of 3 bras avaliable. None, however, are in anything close to my size.
You may want to pack an extra bra or two in place of a t-shirt or pair of shorts but if that is not an option find ways to roll things smaller or tuck the bras down the side of the suitcase.
One way to protect the molded cup bras is to put a shoe box in your suitcase, place the bra in the suitcase and pack small belongings all around the bra. It does not take up more room and your bra will not get smushed.
