The bra gods are smiling upon me! I must be cashing in all my good karma points, because this is perfection! It’s a gorgeous muted dusty purple color. It gives a round uplifting shape that I adore. There aren’t any bells or whistles, just a few tiny bows located on the center gore and where the straps meet the cup. The lace is supportive with just the right amount of stretch. Wires are really narrow and I love it! I get a good tack on the center gore. Straps are a wide elastic that are soft and fully adjustable. Back band is firm with evenly distributed elastic so no digging in. I’m about to email Gorsenia and ask them to make this in every color!
That is gorgeous. It looks great on you and the colour is perfect!
This looks gorgeous on you! Pretty colour and great shape!
Wilderness1 Sovavosi Thank you. The color is unlike any color I’ve ever seen done on a bra before. I think this particular cut, three part cup with straight cut upper piece, gives the best fit from this brand. I’m definitely going to be collecting more bras from this brand with this cut. It’s a similar cut to the their half padded bras. A style I also had very good fit luck with.
Ok, now you're just rubbing it in.😉
sweitch Haha I’m just so excited. 😆 It’s been a long time, if ever, since I’ve had a bra that feels like it was made for me.
Just a little jealous. Happy for you though.😁
That looks like a great fit! I definitely need to check this style out.
It looks amazing in you! I can’t wait to try mine when it comes! I’m curious how my soft and fob breasts handle it. Looks beautiful with rounded even tissue, but not sure what it is going to look like without a lot of upper fullness.
gratiat I’ve been very pleased with this brand over all. Definitely worth taking a peek at. Calluna I think this lace, while providing great stability, has flexibility along the upper cup. One of the great things I noticed about Gorsenia’s cuts that have this stretchier lace along the top is how well it works for my weight fluctuations. It definitely molds more to the body vs trying to mold your boobs into a bra cup.
Well, we shall see soon. Sometimes my soft and shallow upper tissue creates a whole different fit in bras. I’m hoping that I will still have a somewhat rounded shape instead of an overly pointy one (natural is ok...pointy is not).
I have This one also and love it. Like the other 2 full lace ones I had to size up to 65H. It looks terrific on you!!!
AGBras It’s a definite favorite right out of the gate. I’ve beeb so pleased with this brand. So glad I was able to see all your reviews on them. I’d have never known about them all. Best part about the whole thing is, not one of the Gorsenia bras eats my armpits! So many brands are have such wide placed straps.
Happy2BraShop it's one of the things I love most about Gorsenia...the strap placement and wing height. They're perfect everytime.
The colour of this thing, omg! It's absolutely amazing. Grey-violet, so so nice.
AprilGoulding has raved about her Gorsenias and seeing as I'm trying to find options other than EM because of the inconsistencies with the brand, I decided to give it a try. It did not disappoint, however I think this might a cup too small for me (as this is technically 30G), but I'm afraid in 65J it will be too large? Does that make sense?
This bra checks a lot of marks for me.
At this size, the bra has three part cups with a horizontal seam, and a vertical seam with stretch lace on ...top. The support on these cups is superb! Seriously, they feel very sturdy but at the same time it doesn't feel bulky and the lace isn't scratchy or anything. The tension between stretch lace and bottom cup is even so there is no in cup quadding (which I get with a lot of stretch lace bras). It has very narrow wires (they really are EM narrow, honestly), but they don't feel so rigid they poke. Overall, the cups are comfortable, if a little too short at the sides (because the band is not very wide, I think). The shape, though! Perfect round shape (as round as it gets for me, heh). I've learned not to expect this shape and never seem to quite get it unless the bra is too small, so maybe in 65J I wouldn't get this same shape. Big big minus--the cups have the horrendous elastic on top. These, of course, cut in. If I take them off, will the stretch lace be able to support the tops of my boobs, though? I don't dare do it. The stretch lace does feel very flimsy... I'm afraid the elastic is what's holding the bra together.
The band is a 65 through and through. Equal to my EM 65s (the non-rogue ones). However, a big minus is that there are only two hooks and because of that I feel the stability of the bra suffers. I would be willing to pay extra to get that third row https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />. The band doesn't feel too tight or too loose, just right.
The gore is not too wide, but it's wider than EMs. It tacks, no surprise there. The straps adjust long enough for me, surprisingly. They have very little stretch to them as well, so it's pretty lucky that they're long enough otherwise this bra would be unwearable for me.
Overall, I like this bra. It almost fits. Almost. I think I will wear it anyway as this is as close as I have to a fitting bra that is not EM right now.
edit: so I cut off the elastic. Not too much of a difference, but it does lose shape and get some in cup quadding without it. Read more 370 more words
It looks wonderful on you. Glad it's almost perfect, and hopefully your next Gorsenia will be even better! 💕
I do really like the way it looks on me (and in general the bra is beautiful). I'm wondering what would happen if I removed the elastic..............
Maybe just clip it in a few places to release part of the tension but not the full support?
I have actually considered that! We will see what I do, I just washed it and it's already dry (ah, 25+ degree weather) so I'm gonna wear it today and see how it fares. I have a wedding to attend on Saturday so this might be a perfect bra for it!
Fingers crossed that it works. 🍀
Oh man! I ordered this exact same bra, same size and everything, from Magda; it's on it's way, with five other bras! This makes me excited, though: based on your review, I think it's gonna fit me. Regarding the elastic issue: do you have a seam ripper? That would be the best way to remove the elastic if you're gonna do it; just go slowly and carefully, otherwise you might rip the lace. If this fits similarly to an Ewa BM bra, I think clipping the elastic will be OK. There isn't elastic along the top edge of the BMs, and these are both stretchy lace, so theoretically, it should still lay flat, right? Depending on how mine fits and if it causes me issues, I may end up clipping my elastic, so I'll let you know what happens if you haven't already done so with yours!
It is a much much flimsier lace than BMs for sure. Which is mainly why I'm hesitant about cutting it off.
Glad you got a good fit! Maybe you can hone in on what you are looking for with Gorsenia. Glad to see more good Gorsenia reviews since AprilGoulding caught all of our attention with her rave reviews.
I am going to give 65J a try and we'll see gow it goes! Honestly this is a lot of bra for the price I paid. I have an Ava on the way as well so we'll see how it fares compared to this.
Beautiful bra! Love the colour. I’m curious about the elastic strip and if you do anything to it to alleviate the issues it presents. I have kinda held off on the brand because of it. So I’m following you with my information on the size and elastic.
You should give it a try. The cups are very deep
I'm still waiting for my full lace styles.
However, i do have Havana which is a half lace.
I don't find that the lace is flimsier...but it does not have the thin mesh behind it like on the Ewa BM.
I really don't get the impression that the plastic strip holds the bra together. Usimg a seam ripper to remove parts of it will surely make it more open on top.
I also think Gorsenia offers "a lot of bra for the money". Its why I keep buying more :P
It isn't really elastic that's on the top of the cups on Gorsenia bras - it's a narrow strip of clear plastic that has some give to it. N.B. The Paradise does not have this strip - the black band that makes the top of the cup is elasticized. So if you're gonna quad in this style, you're gonna quad. You can't do any surgery on this style.
On a Krisline bra, however, there is actual elastic. It's very narrow, soft and color-matched to the embroidered top cup panel, but it's real elastic.
I have been trying to find out the purpose of these strips - whether it is structural or for fit/cosmetic reasons.
They never bother me, because I am so round and have such short, steep roots that there is no soft tissue for them to dig into and sometimes - in the cases like with Krislines where they are actual elastic that shirs the top of the cup - they act in my favour, as they work to close the top of the cup.
I don't think the structural integrity of the bra would be compromised by removing them - this will most certainly open up the top of the cup.
If you do it, you will quickly find out if the cup is really too small or if it was the strip creating the dreaded quadding.
As for size differences between cups in Gorsenias, brasaremean I can only tell you what I have noticed between 65G and 65H.
I have a Margo in both sizes as it was one of the first Gorsenias that I bought and I was trying to determine my best size.
65G fits me everywhere like a glove. There is no extra room, not even a millimeter, anywhere.
In the 65H, there is space at the top of the cup only - right where someone with very soft tissue and/or tall roots would experience quadding.
Otherwise, the differences between these 2 sizes is not all that great.
I posted a photo -you can see the diff between 65G and 65H.
Please keep in mind that of all my Gorsenias (yes, I have more than a dozen yikes!) Margo has the most "ruffled/shirred" top.
1. They don't fit like my half lace/embroidery styles. Cups aren't quite as deep. Read on...
2. The black Caren is too small while its fushia twin Madera fits
3. The Madera and Simena fit but just barely. Barely.
4. The wires on these styles aren't as deeply U shaped
5. The wings seem a bit lower
6. Outside edge of cup under armpit isn't as high and/or as tight to my body
7. I got a tiny bit of quadding due to the strip, so I went to work on stretching it by running it through my fingers and tugging gently. It worked. I just needed that little bit extra.
It's strange how the fit is so different in these styles... MagdaBras4you also sent me a Gorsenia unlined balconette...reviews and measures of all to come next week.
On a side note, she also sent me unlined half cup in Krisline, 2 Kinga forms and an EM Triumf plunge- which fits perfectly!!
You look amazing in it. 😍 If you want to have three rows of hooks in the future, please send me a message. This I can change for you. ;)
3/29/20: Unfortunately this bra is just a little too big for me now. I have some unfilled room song the bottom of the cup along the wire and the wires are too wide for me. The band is also very stretchy and even on the tightest hooks it rides up. But I still love it and hope to find in a size down some day.
7/15/19: Margo, I profess my love for you!! First off she’s beautiful! A lovely nude background with lavender purple flowers and green leaves on the print with a matching pattern in the embroidered lace for the top portion of the cup. The top ...portion has a nude fine mesh layer under it. The bottom of the cup is a silky smooth fabric. The band is quite stretchy and I’m able to wear this on the tightest set of hooks. The wires are narrow and comfortable. The center gore has a very tiny nude bow with a little lavender and cream cameo pendent. The straps are nude with a sewn on matching stretchy adornment up the first 6 inches of the strap. And the best part? She fits like a dream! Another Gorsenia win! Read more 90 more words
3/29/20: While I love the color of this bra, the fit is just so funky and gives an odd shape. Also, this bra squeaks insanely bad! It’s beyond annoying in both fit and sound. So buh bye it goes!
7/9/19: The pictures don’t do the color of this bra justice. It’s a beautiful berry color. It’s very comfortable with the band firing spot on. The elastic is well distributed along the the top and bottom of the backband, so no digging in. The straps are soft yet have just the right amount of stretch to them. The wires are nice and narrow, exactly what I want in a ...well fitting bra. The cups consist of two layers, one of fine color matching mesh and the top layer a lovely lace fabric. With the additional lace along the strap where it meets the front of the cup and gives a pretty sweetheart neckline. I get a tiny bit squeaking from the wires but it’s not noticeable unless you’re really listening for it. There is a very soft flexible piece of boning on the wing. The center gore has a beautiful sparkly gemstone pendant. My only complaint on this bra is the angle view. While it gives a very natural shape, it somehow pushes my boobs up yet flattens then out just above where the three part construction converges. I’m not totally mad at it, and as of now this is my best fitting most comfortable bra I own! Very happy with my first experience with Gorsenia. Will definitely be purchasing more from this brand.

Welcome to my Unicorn Bra world of Gorsenia!! Aren't the wires dreamy??
I have this bra too and I love it! I had to size up in the 3 full-lace styles, as I found them to be about 1/2 cup size smaller (I wear 65G in the regular half-satin styles, but I am filling those cups completely, completely, with no room for error, so I have 65H in these lace styles) .
I think this flattening may be happening because perhaps it's a little too small in the cup. Just a smidge - just enough to not allow your tissue to sink and project fully. I say that because I had a similar effect in the 65G when I tried it.
However, if this is the case, it's just a little bit and the bra is still beautiful on you.
Did you try a half knit satin/ half lace style yet? Those cups are just a bit bigger, so I am wondering if you'll still get the flattening effect in this size....hmmmmmmm....
AGBras They totally are! I loved my Ewa bras for years, but sadly now I just have a hard time finding the right size with them! At first I thought the same thing in regards to size, but with this bra if I size up the wires will definitely be too wide and the cups would eat my armpits alive. Even with gaining this post baby weight, my high-profile implants keep me projected and center fast. I currently have a Gorsenia Arctic in 30H on the way to me. Crossing fingers that fits. I’m looking forward to finding and trying several styles with Gorsenia and other Polish brands. Over the years it’s just been hit or miss with Comexim and Ewa band/cup consistency.
If only they made one more cup size up, I could join you both in Gorsenia bliss.... 😖😖😖
MamaPagan I know right? You got 10-15 pounds to lose? That usually results in lose of a cup size or 2 LOL :P
MamaPagan I’ve seen my share of size cut offs. It’s not beneath me to buy the sister size and have the band taken in. In fact, there’s a Gorsenia I want so so bad, but it starts at a 32 band. Is it possible to do such a thing for you?
Happy2BraShop I usually wear 65G in Gorsenia, but I just bought a 70F in Forever Blue and it fits perfectly on the second hook :)
AGBras HaHa, I don't want to lose breast mass though! 😬
AGBras HaHa, I don't want to lose breast mass though! 😬
Happy2BraShop I would be sister sizing to get Gorsenia. I wear a 28:16/28:17 and they don't do the 28s. They will do the 65M which isn't enough but I think I could do a 65N based on the Ms I tried by them......
MamaPagan Gorsenia's bands are so big and stretchy though! D:
AGBras lol oh my gosh I’m about to order a K473 Feeling Blue in a 70 band because I have to have it! How do their undies run? Would you say they run true to size?
Happy2BraShop typically, most of their panty styles run small...some exceptionally small...but I have the Brazilian and it's very TTS. It's their largest size Small I have...about equal to a 36/8 in Ewa Michalak
Sovavosi I know! I tried 9 of them before giving up. 😖
Funny...I don't find them big and stretchy at all. They're on par with Ava and Kinga. They're definitely smaller than KL bands. I have had Ewa mesh bands that were the same and the Comexims that arrived today are looser than any of my Gorsenia. I tried a Gaia today whose band is weaker than pantyhose. Gorsenia bands are definitely more forgiving than Ewa's knit bands but they're consistent. Yay for consistency.
AGBras the bands on large cups are automatically longer by default, that does not help things. People keep saying Comexim and Ewa are tight and that is simply not true in 28J+ range.
I have to second Sovavosi. Both cups and bands don't follow the normal rules above the J cup, but that goes with all brands really. :-/
Sovavosi yes...i forgot about this dilemma in the larger cup sizes.
That doesn't mean I wouldn't try again if they made another cup up!!
I'm not sure why I didn't do this before, but instead of using what my bra size is "supposed" to be, I looked at measurements of each size of the Gorsenia bras in my range, compared them to the 70G Ewas I have that fit me, and found out that in Gorsenia, 65I is my "perfect" size. I know that seems like a "duh!" sort of thing for most of you, but I just assumed, "Gorsenia bras don't fit me because the 32:9 that is my size doesn't fit!" Silly me. So I purchased this from another Bratabaser, so it was cheaper than buying full price. I ...like the fact that Gorsenia bras are narrow and projected and less expensive than Ewa Michalak bras! With all of the problems and slowness happening at Ewa, I was concerned I wouldn't have a "backup" bra brand to use in case stuff gets worse. I'm really glad I tried Gorsenia, because it fits almost as well as my BMs, with a few tweaks. I had to move one strap narrower, but that's normal for me, and I have to do that with just about all of my bras. (I've gotten rally good and fast at that strap surgery!) The cups, since they aren't made of the stretch lace like BM styles, have some gaping at the top of the cup, but it's not noticeable underneath a shirt, so it doesn't bug me. The gore tacks a little too well, but it doesn't hurt; I'm wearing it now, so we will see after a full day of wearing if it leaves marks or not. If it does, as long as it doesn't turn painful, I'll continue to wear it. This bra is nicely understated, and a perfect "flesh/beige" tone for me. Overall, I like this bra! Now I have to figure out which ones are the same "style" or whatever so I can find different ones to get in the future. (I'll update measurements and pictures later tonight!) Read more 224 more words
Glad it works for you. More options are a wonderful thing. 💚
Welcome to Gorsenia fans !!! If necessary, I will help you with pleasure.:)
Welcome to Gorsenia fans !!! If necessary, I will help you with pleasure.:)
Yay for a good fit! :)
Welcome to my dream world of Gorsenia. :)
These soft cups are my unicorn!! I find every single one in 65G fits perfectly.
65G Gorsenia full soft cup is like 65FF in Ewa BM but with a smidge more space right at the wire.
I have 5 already and 6 or 7 more on the way. So far, they're all like yours - half lace style. However, I have full lace as well as unpadded half cups and semi padded styles coming. I'll report on their fit when they arrive.
Congrats on your victory!
AprilGoulding I didn't know they had full lace styles! What are the names so I can look them up? I'm wondering if that would fit me even better!
They also have lace and mesh styles...see Morning Glory (70 bands only) and Paradise. Also coming up is chocolate and white. Should have 65 bands. See their IG or pdf catalogue on their website.
P.S. their panties rock too! But run small. I normally take XS but size S fits me snugly.
MagdaBras4you sent me pics before she mailed them. I'll load them to Imgur for you. One sec
I am curious also to see you in this size...i wear 65G but i have a 65H here so i can show you on me the difference a cup size in this brand makes
I wear a 70G in Ewa Michalak, and the 65I (this particular Gorsenia) fit me almost exactly, other than the slightly wide straps and the gaping of the cups. The gaping is more because the lacy top of the bra isn't stretchy at all; I find that makes all the difference in laying flat atop my soft tissue. I'm almost certain a 65H would be too small in the cup, though I would be interested to try it on! I have bottom heavy breasts that are really soft tissue, so I can imagine it would be quad boob central if I went down a cup, lol. I'm emailing Madga now! I want all three of those lace Gorsenias if they are stretch lace!
This is me modelling the 2 sizes for you...and in different styles ;)
P.S. i wear 65G in Ewa Michalak BM. I find 65FF is better for my proportions (wing height, strap width, etc) but the cups aren't projected enough at the wire so I go up and fill it perfectly.
Oh those look amazing on you! I do see the difference in the larger cup size, too; the G fit you perfectly. I wish the straps fit me better: I get major "armpits getting eaten by the elastic and fabric" on just about every single bra I own. I'm so glad I rediscovered Gorsenia. They are super pretty and WAY cheaper than Ewa. Though Ewa bras are my "dream" bras, these are pretty darn close! Thanks for the pics and the help, AprilGoulding !
In the past I tried a few Gorsenia bras, having had luck with Margo and Simena. To be honest this bra is very lackluster and basic. While it has some nice detail, it’s just a beige bra. But, that’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes a nice boring bra can be a true workhorse and this bra feels sturdy and well made.
The cup is a three part design. With the lower cups consisting of beige matte single ply of non-stretch fabric. The upper cup is a non-stretch beige two tone embroidered type lace, having a subtle scalloped edge. The center gore has matching lace with a very ...tiny beige bow that has a tear drop diamond pendant hanging from it. The back band is a beings stretch mesh that has side boning. There is a 3x3 back clasp! In old Gorsenia a lot of 65I bras have a 2x3, so I was happy about the extra line of hooks as I much prefer a 3x3. The straps are a beige elastic with a shimmery scalloped edge detail. The front of the straps have a lace detail that runs down the front portion of the strap and ends just were the strap meets the cup. All elastic and hardware is beige.
Briefs in size Medium: I purchased the matching, as husband would say, granny panties lol. There is a front panel consisting of the same beige stretch fabric with two lace triangle details up on the front where the center panel meets the hip panels. There are seams on the sides where the back panel connects to the front. All elastic is beige and it has a beige cotton gusset in the crotch. Read more 174 more words
*Update: The band is still snug and I’ve found I get the best fit with an extender to make it as if it had one more row of hooks. I’m going to change this from fitting to not fitting just for that reason. I can wear it as is, but prefer the extended at this time. I hope in time it stretches out to allow me to wear it as is.
This is probably the first bra and panty matching set I’ve owned and I’m not disappointed. The cups on the bra are a light nude lightly padded lining with a sheer black patterned overlay. The top of ...the cup has a sheet non stretch lining with a black sheer overlay. The sheer overlay on the top of the cup wrinkles on my smaller boob side, but I think once this is washed the overlay will shrink a tad, or the under fabric will stretch and the two will meet in the middle and lay flat. Either way the ripples don’t show at all under thin knitted tops. The center of the cups where the top portion meets the two lower section has a printed flower like design that sits nicely to conceal areola that might peek out of the cup. The center gore has a silver charm. The straps are a nice stretch elastic. The band is snug! But as I’ve learned black bras seem to always be on the snug side.
I purchased the matching panties Fantasy (K510) in size Medium. They fit nicely. The fabric is thin with a cotton gusset in the crotch. It has the same floral print on lace on the hip. Read more 170 more words
Hmmm...This bra has dimensions similar to the 65H Caramel, unlined. However, it fits differently. The cup width requires more band length than the smaller 65H Caramel. And, this pulls the cups shallow: I require an extender. I noticed this same phenomenon in a 30GG Curvy Kate. The 30G did not require an extender, but the 30GG did.
The color is a red-orange with black polka dots and embroidery. The cups include cookie pockets, but no cookies. Lined with cotton, the cup fabric is comfortable and supportive. In this size, the straps are too wide-set for me. However, considering the cup dimension, I don't think a 65H would fit ...well because the cup would be too narrow.
The top of the cup wrinkles near the gore NOT because the cup is too big but because the gore is too wide. The gore rolling onto one breast creates slack along the cup edge and the appearance that the cup is unfilled. I have lost count of the number of bras that appeared too big because of a too-wide gore. If you have center-full and close-set breasts, this fit issue may plague you, too. If the gore wires had space to tack, this cup volume would be nearly perfect.
The straps are more narrow than Comexim but the same width as Ewa Michalak. The band is a single layer of mesh like Ewa Michalak, but less robust than the double layer Comexim bands. I prefer Comexim fabrics, but the center shallowness of Comexim designs moves me to Gorsenia. The price and rapid delivery make these a great find for center-full, immediately projected breasts.

Depth ratio of 2! I still need a deeper cup!? /facepalm
I've overlapped the gore wires and this gives me a little more space, but at the cost of spillage in the armpit. oy vey.
Disregard Bratabase's sizing info, it totally shit the bed flipping the numbers- these are the real measurements for 65I as taken:
B. perimeter 0.0 Stretched Band 29.1 Band Length 23.2 Cup width 5 Cup depth 10 Wire length 12 Cup height 8 Cup separation 0.7 Gore height 3.45 Wing height 4 Strap width 0.8 Strap length 15.5 Hooks 3
Another win! I might just go buy a lotto ticket and try my luck there next due to the recent bra win luck I’ve beeb having hahaha. Anyway, the back band is on the snug side as I’ve come to expect from black bras. What is it about black bras that make them run slightly smaller in any brand? Back band is firm with evenly distributed elastic, so no digging in. Cups give a very uplifted round look, but I find this particular bra a bit less projected at the center cup compared to Madera or Simena. In comparison to Madera I also don’t get the slightly odd angle view. Cups are a very airy black lace with a very fine mesh lining. There is a very tiny black bow without any gems or adornments on the center gore. A delicate basic black beauty if will. Wires are narrow. Straps are fully adjustable and consist of a wide soft flexible elastic.
I have ALL the same impressions as you. Simena is my fave (colour and shape) followed by Caren and Madera (prefer Madera lace and colour but less thd shape). I had 2 other black Gorsenias and I had to size up in both. I have thd sane question about black. Its not like the fanric is cut before its dyed, so I am perplexed.
AGBras Yes! I much prefer the softer lace of Madera, but the shape is slightly strange at certain angles yet gives a more natural shape. With Caren and Simena it’s definitely a rounded uplifting shape. It’s like every black bra I’ve ever owned runs smaller all around. I just end up wearing them on my “I feel light days” and my other bras that run larger for “why did I eat that third plate of tacos” days haha.
I have heard that the dye process to get black shrinks the fabric so maybe the fibers are tighter and the the band is as well.
cupandahalf I’m sure that’s exactly why. But it’s like a brassiere dark overlord casts a spell on all the black bras across the land after production to make them a little smaller all the way around lol.
I am so happy for you finding a bra that fits so good. It is a good day when you have a bra win. It is a beautiful bra and i love the lace details. Looks like it fits your perfectly.
Appearance: This bra is a LOVELY berry color. It's like a mix between fuschia, magenta, purpley pink... but not super bright. It's so so gorgeous. The gore has a little crystal charm that dangles, and the straps have the extra lace instead of bows, similar to the Caren. The cup is full floral lace, 3 part construction, with the plastic piece at the top edge. The top of the cup is slightly stretchy, but not nearly as much as Ewa Michalak BM styles. Fit: I'm FOB, projected, soft tissue, narrow shoulders; this fit as well as the Caren, which is to say that I quadded all over the place. It's weird, because the measurements match up with bras that do fit me, but the top of the cups sorta flatten and squish my breasts while also quadding, giving me an awfully weird shape. I'd be willing to try this in a size 70i, but that will have to wait until I get more bra funds. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
I was so sad when I tried this on and it didn't fit! It's a really pretty black lace bra that reminds me of Ewa Michalak's BM style. (My favorite) I wanted to try the full lace unlined Gorsenias, so I went ahead and ordered this one, a Madera, and a Simena, all in sizes 65i. (Of the three, only the Simena fit me.) Appearance: This is an unlined, full lace, 3 part cup style. The top edge of the cup has that little clear piece of elastic to help hold the top edge down. At the top part of the straps, there's a neat little piece of lace ...to make the straps look wider, if that makes sense. So instead of bows at the straps, there's extra lace, which is a unique touch. The entirety of the bra is a delicate black lace. Fit: I'm FOB, soft tissue, narrow shouldered, and projected. This bra had me quadding on both sides, mostly because the cups aren't deep enough, or projected enough at the gore, I think. The band seems true to size; it's slightly tighter than I like, but I figured if it fit, I could always wear it with an extender until it stretches out a bit. Unfortunately, I think in this style, and the Madera, I need to order up a size since the cups are quite a bit smaller than the other 65i Gorsenias I have tried. (Granted, there's not a lot of those that I can compare to) (Strangely enough, I haven't had any issues with the straps being too wide, which is a common problem for me. This was one of 7 bras I ordered from Magda, and I haven't had to alter the straps of any of them! Huzzah!) Read more 183 more words
The band is firm but doesn't dig nor discomfort. Its wire is slightly wider than K275. Mine are FOT, closed set, tall, narrow rooted. Center gore is bit too high and wide. Other than that very comfortable.
Appearance: The beautiful purpley gray color of this bra is what initially drew me towards trying it out. I'm glad I did! 3 part cup construction, full floral lace with some stretch to it, no frills or anything extra: just a gorgeous-colored gray bra. Fit: I'm FOB, narrow shouldered, projected, soft tissue. This fit me really well, except for the band being a touch too tight for me; I just wear it with an extender. I could probably get away with this in a 70i, but I feel like I would sacrifice the straps fitting me in this size. It seems that they get wider and wider on the bras the larger the band you get. I would love to try a 70i, though, just to see if I'm right! It's odd to me that this full lace Gorsenia fits me so well and the other 2 65i full lace styles (Caren and Madera) don't fit me at all. I can't figure out what it is that makes this one work and not the other two.
I have all 3 also (and they are all a little too small...unlike any of my other Gorsenias) Semena has the narrowest and deepest cups and measures and fits most like my half satins so I think that's why it fits you. Madera is a little smaller again and Caren is the smallest.
Delicate, very pale pink color, and nice smooth cups. Very stretchy band. The lace has a little stretch but is backed by mesh. Fits me comfortably on the 2nd hook. Does a good job with center and bottom fullness, but a little big for me on the top and outer sides. Will buy again in a smaller band.
Gorsenia bras generally fall into the style of “a lot of bra,” meaning there’s a lot of coverage and the cup comes up quite high. However, I think the large amount of embroidery keeps them looking moderately delicate. The high cups can also be a boon to full-on-top boobs, since they tend not to cut into the breast tissue.
The cups are perfectly round. Band fits true to size. Cups are too big on me, though. I'm a UK 28G or 30FF, and this feels like a 30G. I bought it new off eBay and did the size translation wrong, which is why I ended up with a bra that's a cup too big.
Fully adjustable straps, soft seamed cups with no padding. Wings are a single layer of mesh. Three rows of hooks and eyes.
That is gorgeous. It looks great on you and the colour is perfect!
