We first introduced the Lilly Top to our Metta range several years ago, and have not looked back. The Lilly Top is made from a linen gauze fabric and features an elegant crew-neck and full sleeve. Due to the delicate nature of the linen gauze fabric, we have designed the Lilly Top to be worn slightly oversized and recommend customers see the measurements below to find an appropriate fit. 

A very handy layering piece, the Lilly Top is often purchased alongside our sleeveless linen dresses for chest and arm coverage. Having some transparency due to the nature of the woven linen gauze, we love to style the Lilly Top over Metta’s cotton and silk camisoles. Due to the nature of the woven gauze, the exact shade of white does vary slightly. The Lilly Top is an off-white to vintage white, and not an optic white. 

Lilly Tops will arrive pre-shrunk and washed. They can appear much smaller in size on arrival, as the beautiful fabric scrunches up quite a lot in this process. With wear, the fabric will relax. The Lilly Top can also be ironed on a warm setting if you prefer less ‘scrunch’.

We recommend looking at the garment’s measurements in relation to your body, and also in comparison to a similar style of clothing you own. This is a great way of understanding the shape and size of a style.

About Metta-

Our linen styles are made from premium European flax linen, pre-washed, and ready to wear on arrival. Some are lightly pressed - within no time the fabric will soften with wear, crinkles and wrinkles will come naturally, giving it that stunning un-ironed look that we have all come to love. If you would like to speed up this process, we recommend popping it in the washing machine, following the washing instructions found on your garments care label, and skipping any ironing.
