Product Information
Full details
This DILLING merino wool strap top is designed for adult women seeking a comfortable, breathable, and versatile base layer. Its key benefit is the exceptional softness and natural temperature regulation of merino wool, keeping you warm and dry while remaining odour-inhibiting. A potential caveat is its delicate lace trim, which requires careful handling during washing. The top features a body-hugging fit, narrow straps, and a fine lace trim along the neckline and straps, making it both functional and subtly elegant.

FAQs
Can I wear this top in warm weather?
Yes, merino wool is naturally breathable and temperature-regulating, making it comfortable even in warmer conditions by wicking away moisture and allowing air circulation.
How often should I wash this top?
Merino wool is odour-inhibiting, so you can wear it multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions to maintain its quality.
Is this top suitable for sensitive skin?
Merino wool is generally very soft and gentle on the skin, even for those sensitive to traditional wool. However, individual sensitivities can vary.
What is the difference between this merino wool top and a cotton one?
Merino wool offers superior temperature regulation, breathability, and odour resistance compared to cotton. It also retains warmth when wet, unlike cotton.
Can I wear this as a standalone top?
Yes, its body-hugging fit and decorative lace trim make it suitable to wear as a standalone top for casual occasions.
Does the lace trim add bulk?
The lace trim is designed to be fine and delicate with elastic, so it lays flat and does not add significant bulk, integrating seamlessly with the top.
What is the best way to store this garment?
Store it folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging for long periods, as this can stretch the garment over time, especially given its knit construction.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy or rough.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Merino wool is naturally soft, so itchiness may indicate detergent residue.
Top loses its shape after washing.
Avoid tumble drying. Always lay the garment flat to dry and gently reshape it while damp. Do not wring out the excess water vigorously.
Lace trim appears damaged.
Handle the lace trim with care when washing and drying. If damage occurs, it may require mending or professional repair. Consider hand washing for the utmost care.
Persistent odour after washing.
Ensure the garment is fully dry before storing. Check if the washing temperature was too high, as excessive heat can sometimes set odors. Use a wool-specific detergent.
