Lingerie bags

DSN Retailing Today, March 27, 2006 by Kelly Nolan
Consumers can shop at a variety of places, from mass market to specialty retailers, to make sure that their latest hosiery purchase stays wearable as long as possible. Victoria's Secret sells a bubble-shaped delicates wash bag with a cotton knit mesh exterior and foam lining for $10. Bed Bath & Beyond has reconfigured its bag into a round cylinder design to accommodate more pieces. It rings in at $4.99.
Other retailers add a little something extra for consumers. For example, JCPenney sells its lingerie bags in pairs. The retailer packages both a medium and large bag together for $15. Nordstrom sells an exclusive hosiery wash with its mesh delicates bag for $10. The company also has a two-compartment intimates wash bag for $11.50.
Colors and fabrications of the bags do not tend to vary. All lingerie bags come in white and in a mesh fabric. Mesh bags are water penetrable, but still sturdy enough to protect hosiery and other intimates from further damage in the washing machine.
Methods of opening and closing bags do differ, however. Nordstrom's bag has a drawstring closure, while bags from JCPenney and Victoria's Secret both have washer-safe zippers.
