how do you wash your bathing suits?
I bought a ton of new bathing suits this year for the honeymoon (20 days and counting  ) and I want to make sure I take proper care of them. My bathing suits usually get pilled and gross after like 2 summers.
So, how do you wash yours?

Handwash, woolite - it saves the lycra.

Re: how do you wash your bathing suits?
While I am away I rinse them in the sink and let them hang dry.
At home I throw them in the washer (regular setting, regular detergent) and hang it up to dry. I have had one suit for 2 years that looks fairly new.

Re: how do you wash your bathing suits?
I've always washed my suits-
Washing machine, hand wash/gentle cycle, in a lingerie bag, with Woolite, hang dry.
And I've had some suits last for years this way.

Re: how do you wash your bathing suits?
i usually handwash with detergent.. while on vacation i'll wash em out in the sink and hang to dry.
sometimes i'll throw them in the regular wash.. but definitely hang them out to dry.
my mother did me a "favor" 2 weeks ago and put all my clothes into the dryer.. needless to say i know own some belly shirts and a very tight and folded funky bathing suit bottom  
at least i still have enough time to buy a new suit for the honeymoon
