The Gorsenia Ida K900 in cream is an underwired bra with no padding, cut from semi-sheer ivory tulle and trimmed along the top of each cup with a stretch lace in a fishnet pattern. It is made for medium, large and very large busts, with the aim of lifting the bust strongly and drawing it inwards.
What the cup is made of
Stable tulle and an elastic, fishnet-look lace are cut into three pieces for each cup. The tulle is semi-sheer, so skin tone shows behind the ivory. A narrow scalloped border runs along the lace, and a broad band finishes the upper edge of the cup.
Wires, centre and band
The cups are unpadded and sit on underwires. Narrow wires shape the base of each cup along the line of the breast, intended to stay clear of the underarm, and breasts that project forward from a narrow base suit this cut best. At the centre, the gore is a crossover shape, profiled so that it does not press, and a small light gold charm hangs at its base. Soft binding lines the top of the band for comfort, and the side bones are meant to keep the fabric from curling over. At the back, opaque lycra is combined with elastic lace and tulle.
Fastening, straps and hardware
The back closes with two rows of hooks in smaller sizes and three in larger ones, and either way there are three positions. The straps are adjustable but fixed, made in three widths over the size range. The rings, sliders and charm are light gold and nickel-free.
Cream under clothing
Cream is an ivory, not a skin tone, so under white or thin pale fabric it can show as a lighter shape unless it happens to match your skin. The fishnet and the seams between the three cup pieces add texture as well.
Choosing the size
The K900 is built for medium, large and very large busts. Available band and cup combinations appear on the size selector, and the Lascava size guide takes you through measuring.
Is the cream Ida right for you
Best for: fuller busts, from medium up to very large, with a narrow base and forward projection, looking for lift and a centred line from a wired, unpadded cup; anyone who likes a pale, sheer lingerie look; a set that is meant to be seen rather than hidden.
Not ideal for: a wide breast base; an unnoticeable layer under white; padded or moulded cups; a wire-free bra.
Briefs to match
The high-waisted Ida K901 briefs are also stocked in cream. The bra is sold here on its own.
Washing the cream K900
Do the hooks up before it goes in. Hand wash at 30 to 40 °C in a gentle detergent, or put it in a wash bag and choose the delicate programme. Skip bleach, ironing, dry cleaning and the tumble dryer.
Common questions
Is the cream Ida K900 see-through?
Partly. The tulle is semi-sheer and the fishnet lace is openwork, while the lycra at the back is opaque.
