The Gorsenia Luisse K441 is a non-padded underwired bra in navy blue. The lower cup is a stable matte knit shaped by vertical seams, the upper cup is sheer tulle with fine elastic lace sewn onto it. Construction code: K441.
How the cup is built
The lower cup is a stable matte knit with vertical seams running through it, and the upper cup is sheer tulle with an elastic floral lace stitched over it. The centre between the cups and the section under them are a smoother knit with tulle. Gorsenia builds the cup this way to gather the bust towards the centre, lift it and hold a rounded shape, and how that plays out depends on the fit.
Sides, straps and closure
The sides are wide and cut from a firm lycra knit, each carrying a vertical bone that is there to keep the bra in place. The straps are the other part worth knowing about: they are sewn and widened rather than plain elastic, built from foam, trimmed with lace and lined with cotton, and the width changes with the size. They adjust for length and do not detach. Closure is hook-and-eye with three positions, two rows on the smaller sizes and three on the larger ones. Composition is 90% polyamide, 7% elastane, 3% polyester.
What shows in navy
The tulle across the top of the cup is see-through, and in a dark navy the contrast with the skin beneath it is obvious rather than subtle. Under thin or close-fitting clothing, the lace, the change of texture at the top of the cup and the vertical seams in the lower cup can all show through. A narrow trim runs from the centre of the bra up across each cup towards the shoulder, and it catches the light against the matte knit.
Sizing
The K441 is built for a larger bust, and both the strap width and the number of hook rows grow with the size. The size selector shows which navy sizes are in stock, and the Lascava size guide covers measuring.
Who the K441 suits best
Best for: larger cups, for anyone who wants the bust gathered and lifted rather than flattened; anyone who wants a wired bra with no foam in the cup; anyone who finds thin straps hard going.
Not ideal for: anyone who needs a smooth, solid cup all the way to the top edge; anyone looking for a wireless or moulded shape.
How to wash the Luisse K441
Hand wash at 40 °C with the hooks done up. Avoid bleach, ironing, dry cleaning and tumble drying, and dry the bra flat or on a line.
Frequently asked questions
The K441 is sold as a soft bra. Is it wire-free?
No, it is underwired. For Gorsenia, soft means the cup carries no padding.
