FAQs

Is this dress suitable for sleepwear?

No, this DILLING Children's Merino Wool Dress is not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for everyday wear during waking hours.

What makes merino wool good for children's clothing?

Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating, meaning it helps keep children warm in the cold and cool in the heat. It's also moisture-wicking and naturally odor-resistant, making it ideal for active kids.

How should I wash the merino wool dress?

It is best to machine wash on a wool program at a maximum of 30°C (86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softener and tumble drying. Lay flat to dry.

Can this dress be worn in all seasons?

Yes, the temperature-regulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for year-round wear. It provides warmth in cooler months and breathability in warmer months.

What does 'regular fit' mean for this dress?

A regular fit means the dress is designed to be neither too tight nor too loose, allowing for comfortable movement and layering underneath if needed.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

The size is indicated as '3-4' (UK children's size). Please refer to standard children's sizing charts if you are unsure about conversions, but this dress is specifically for that age and size range.

Can I use a regular detergent to wash this dress?

We strongly recommend using a wool-specific detergent. Regular detergents can be too harsh and may damage the delicate merino wool fibers, affecting their softness and performance.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels tight after washing

Merino wool can sometimes feel slightly tighter after washing if not cared for properly. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a cool wool program. Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Lay flat to dry and gently reshape while damp.

Pilling on the fabric

Some minor pilling is natural with wool fibers, especially with frequent wear. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by carefully picking them off. Proper washing and handling will minimize pilling over time.

Odor persists after washing

While merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, persistent odors might occur if the garment was not washed thoroughly or if stored improperly. Ensure you are using an appropriate wool detergent and washing on a suitable cycle. Airing out the garment can also help refresh it.
