Jolie Dress - Thick Stripe Linen By Metta

Inspired by our previous Goldie Style from Metta Melbourne days gone by, the Jolie Dress is crafted from European grown, woven and sewn linen. With a lovely thick strap, drawstring waist, side pockets and handy side seam slits for ease of movement and layering. 

Ticking Stripe was originally known as ‘ticking fabric’ and made from thickly woven cotton or linen, and in this case a lovely lightweight woven European linen. ‘Ticking’ comes from the Greek word ‘theka’, which means ‘case’ or ‘covering’ as this delightful fabric has been traditionally used in the home to cover mattresses, keeping straw and feathers securely in. We fell in love with this timeless stripe many years ago, and love to incorporate it into our collections.
