FAQs

What is the primary benefit of merino wool in this dress?

Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and moisture-wicking, making it exceptionally comfortable for active children.

Is this dress suitable for sleeping in?

No, this dress is not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for daytime wear and active play.

How should I wash this merino wool dress?

Machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Lay flat to dry.

What does '18.5 micron' refer to?

Micron refers to the diameter of the wool fiber. A lower micron count, like 18.5, indicates finer fibers, which means the wool is softer, less scratchy, and more comfortable against the skin.

Can this dress be worn in winter?

Yes, merino wool is excellent for layering. While the dress itself is lightweight, it can be worn over base layers and under heavier outerwear in colder weather for added warmth and comfort.

Are there other colors available?

This guide is for the Pink variant. Please check the product listing for other available colors and sizes.

What does the ruffle detailing add?

The ruffle detailing on the shoulders, neck, and hem adds a charming, decorative element to the dress, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

Troubleshooting

Wool feels itchy

Ensure you are washing with a wool-specific detergent and that the garment is a fine micron merino wool. If the issue persists, try airing the garment out or consider a fabric softener specifically for wool, used sparingly.

Garment has lost its shape

Lay the garment flat to dry after washing. Avoid hanging wet garments. If stretching has occurred, try gently reshaping the garment while damp and laying it flat to dry.

Pilling on the fabric

Pilling is a natural process for knitted garments, especially merino wool. It can be managed by using a fabric shaver gently over the affected areas. Washing inside out can also help reduce pilling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This dress requires no setup and is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with various children's clothing items, making it easy to layer for different weather conditions. To ensure the longevity and quality of the merino wool:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Use a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners.
  2. Drying: Lay flat to dry on a drying rack or towel. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the wool fibers.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably while the garment is still slightly damp, and iron from the inside out.
  4. Storage: Store folded in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging for extended periods to prevent stretching.
