A minimal, effortlessly cool bustier that adapts to your mood. Worn solo by day or night, layered under a sheer blouse or an open shirt, dressed up or pared down.
Its signature V-shaped “princess cut” flatters the waist, delicately framed with openwork detailing.
Designed to be worn without a bra, it comes in three versions tailored to different bust sizes ( from petite to full)
For smaller busts, it creates a soft lift; for fuller figures, it supports and embraces without compression.
Crafted with Contrepoint® N.1, the bustier combines freedom of movement with true support, usually only found in boned or structured pieces. The underbust section gently holds and lifts, while the upper part stretches to follow the body’s natural curves.
No seams, no stiff edges, no pressure marks. Just a smooth fit at the neckline and waist thanks to circular knitting. The dense seed/moss stitch ensures full coverage with no need for lining or padding.
Intermediate-level project that takes shape quickly, thanks to a steady rhythm of well-chosen techniques.
A great way to dive into lacework and refine your stitch precision.
Sizes: This design is available from XS to XL. Our tutorial was developed in 3 variations to offer the right balance of support and coverage for smaller, medium and fuller busts.

Hand washing is recommended.
As with any knitted piece, we recommend washing your garment gently by hand in lukewarm water, using a mild detergent free from bleaching agents. Do not soak.
To remove excess water, press gently between two towels without wringing or twisting. Lay flat to dry naturally, away from direct sunlight and any heat source.
