I do exactly this, and it makes a world of difference.
Plus, the laundry bags help me find them and pull them out when I'm moving wet laundry from the washer to the dryer, so they don't end up getting dried accidentally.

Dammit Bill, I do the same thing. No bras in the dryer ever, I have cute folding Japanese racks to hang my bras. A few of mine are at least ten years old and in good shape, I can't replace the same style so I baby them. No underwires, I had to give them up after the lumpectomy, the wire touches my scar and it feels weird.
