On the islands off the north coast of Scotland, Simmer Dim refers to the magical time when the sun sets below the horizon just long enough to turn around and become a sunrise. Gudrun Johnston’s Simmer Dim Top is an elegant, nearly weightless design with gentle A-line shaping, delicate i-cord straps, and a panel of textured stitches on the front and back. Pascuali Arctic Pearl (100% Seacell) is a luxurious, vegan yarn with a soft and flexible hand that incorporates 19% brown seaweed from Iceland and 81% eucalyptus cellulose. It’s biodegradable and compostable, and it has incredible drape and sheen.
Simmer Dim Top is available in 10 sizes and is designed to fit with 0-2 inches of positive ease. The sizes listed below correspond to the actual measurement of the finished garment, so to achieve the recommended fit, please choose a size that is 0-2 inches larger than your chest measurement.
