Johnny Was "Penelope" Summer Rayon shops Dress White Eyelet Ethereal Artsy Elegance No Slip M-L

The ethereal vibes are strong with this "Penelope" dress by the quality name Johnny Was. The airy, lightweight fabric and summer of love aesthetic lead to endless summer of love appeal. Stroll through the grass or along the beach in graceful, cloud-like style. This preowned dress has been worn just briefly and is clean and fresh, and free of any issues aside from the tiny size label having been carefully clipped (under the Johnny Was fabric
label). This is a pre owned and well cared for dress in great condition, no stains, no rips, no holes. We believe it came originally with a simple white slip shops, but this listing is for the outer dress only. You will likely want to use your own slip or undergarment as this white rayon dress fabric is semi translucent. The drawstring waist (at slightly above waist level; waist appears lower on our too small plastic form model in photos) means it will fit a range of sizes from women's M-L; however please see our detailed measurements below, particularly in deciding where you want the waistline to fall on you. With a total MAXIMUM bust measurement of 41" all the way around, a woman's "L" size seems about right to us. The attention to detail in this flowing 100% cupra rayon elegant dress is astounding, with many fine vertical pintuck stitches forming a pattern that's reminiscent of the Victorian era, including the pretty eyelet hem trim. Slips on over the head, no zippers or buttons necessary. Anyone who knows the Johnny Was name knows that these garments are almost works of art. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any questions!
