About The Designer
“Without craftsmanship, inspiration is a mere reed shaken in the wind.” — Johannes Brahms, german composer
Just like the universal and timeless appeal of a great song, Johnny Was designs clothes that cross cultures and defy trends. With a bohemian spirit and a true sense of authenticity, they take their inspiration from anything that is beautiful, genuine and special—a striking piece of artwork, the luxurious hand-stitching on a vintage dress or the natural simplicity of a vibrant bougainvillea.
Their signature embroideries and effortless silhouettes are unparalleled. After more than 30 years of our artisan-inspired stitch work and luxe fabrications, the undying allure speaks for itself. For the woman looking to showcase her personal style, while appreciating the thoughtful details of timeless techniques. An aesthetic that embraces our California-based lifestyle but always with a global vision.
It’s the gorgeous details in life that make it beautiful, and that’s what JW strives to create with Johnny Was. Embrace the beauty, look beyond and enjoy the journey.
Adding a touch of whimsy to a classic wardrobe piece, the Adlea Long Cardigan is adorned with colorful flora and fauna. Crafted from a cozy cotton blend, this longline cardigan features an open front and vibrant embroidery. Layer over a bright tee and relaxed fit jeans for an elevated casual ensemble.

Do not be afraid to go bold here. Many of Johnny Was’s separates are meant to be worn together and create a long and uniform look. It is very “of the moment” to wear a two piece silk set. While in a photo it may appear to be “too much” of a print, I assure you that once you have the pieces on, it gives a nice mono-print look. Not ready to go there yet? No worries-try one of Johnny Was’ separates and pop on a white or black tee shirt, or denim pants. But, next time-try the “full” look! You will thank me later!
Wear this piece with leggings, denim or a pair of solid silk trousers for a multitude of looks.
Model is 5'11.5". Model is wearing size small. Measurements for size Medium: Bust - 21", Length - 31"
