Subsequently, how do you sew on a hook and eye clasp?
Considering this, how do you make a bra clasp? Cut a strip of elastic the same size as your rib cage. Then, take a bra hook extender and cut and separate the hooks from the eyelets. Sew one on each side of the elastic, making sure they are reversed so you can hook them together like a normal bra clasp.

What part of skirt should be the hook and eye attach?
The position and number of hook and eyes you require will depend on where you are using them. If you are using them above a zipper or to hold a garment closed I recommend you position them 1/8″ (3mm) from the edge of the fabric. The hook and eyes should not be visible from the front of the garment.
Which side does the hook and eye go on?
When you’re creating a hook and eye closure, typically the hook will be on the right side, and the eye will be on the left side. Find the location where you want your fastener to go, and hold the hook up to the fabric on the underside (or inside) of the garment.

Why are there 3 hooks on a bra?
Each bra comes with multiple hooks to extend the life of your bra. When a bra is brand new, its fitted to the loosest hook. As time goes by, the elasticity in the band of the bra weakens. As this happens, you move to the middle hook so it fits you like it did when it was new on the loosest hook.
Why do bras hook in the back?
Typically, the center gore on back-close bras is taller and a bit sturdier, providing a little extra support and separation for your girls up front. Plus, there’s less will-my-clasp-come-undone worry that can come with front-close bras (especially ones that don’t fit right).
Is it unprofessional to not wear a bra?
Not wearing a bra only comes across as unprofessional if people can tell that you’re not wearing a bra. If people can pretty easily tell, then yeah, in most lines of work, it’s going to be seen as unprofessional.
Do bra extenders really work?
Pros: Bra extenders can elongate the band if the band feels tight or provide more hook options if you find yourself between band sizes (For example, a 32 band is too small and a 34 band is too big). Cons: Using a bra extender can distort the bra, affecting the fit and longevity.
How many inches does a bra extender add?
First, these extenders have an elastic panel which makes them longer than most, and very stretchy. So if you’re just looking to add an inch to your bra band, that’s impossible with these. They’ll add at least 2 inches, and a LOT of additional elasticity, to your band. That’s if you can stand to wear them.
How can I stretch my bra band?
If you need to add more length than just adding the bra fastener pieces, you can sew a scrap of fabric or elastic in between the hook and eye pieces to make a longer extender. You can add up to about 3 inches (7.5 cm) of extra room to your bra band this way, without altering the fit of the rest of the bra very much.
