Bra creaking - any advice on how to make it stop?

    If I move my arms, the underwire in my bra creaks like it's auditioning for a horror movie. It's disconcerting enough for me, I have no idea what anyone I give a hug to thinks :)

    The bra is well fitted (band doing 90% of the work, gore is flat against my chest, no bulging/wrinkling etc.) and it is a relatively new. It's Bravissimo own brand, my first one of theirs, and everything else about the bra is great - it's just the creak of the wire that's bugging me. I know that it is the wire moving inside the material that is making the noise, I simply don't know how to make it stop. (I am sorely tempted to soak it in some WD40 ;) )

    Any ideas?

    The gist of it is that you either read it and behave accordingly, or we can review your access to tLL.

    I've a few bras that do that and I think it's the metal and the polyester/other material in the bra rubbing together. Don't think there's a lot that can be done about it tbh!

    It was driving me mad, so in a last ditch attempt, I did oil it :D I didn't want WD40 near my skin, I rubbed coconut oil into the seam. The sound isn't 100% gone, but it's no longer loud enough for someone else to hear - hurray!
