FAQs

Is this dress suitable for sleepwear?

No, this dress is not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for daywear and active movement.

How often should I wash this merino wool dress?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. It's often sufficient to air out the garment between wears. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions, to preserve the fibers.

Can I use regular detergent to wash the dress?

It is highly recommended to use a detergent specifically designed for wool. Regular detergents can contain enzymes that may damage merino wool fibers and reduce their natural properties.

What does 'loose fit' mean for this dress?

The loose fit means the dress is not tight around the body, allowing for greater freedom of movement and comfort for your baby as they play and explore.

Are there other colors available for this dress?

Yes, this baby merino wool dress with ruffles is available in other colors, such as Grey, and various sizes within the blue colorway. Please check the product listings for available options.

How does merino wool help regulate temperature?

Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that traps air, providing insulation in cool conditions. In warmer conditions, the fibers wick moisture away from the skin, promoting cooling through evaporation.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears to have lost its shape after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a gentle wool wash cycle. Lay the garment flat to dry, gently reshaping it while damp. Avoid tumble drying.

Baby feels too warm or too cold

Merino wool is naturally regulating, but consider the layers underneath and the external environment. For cooler weather, pair with merino wool leggings or tights. For warmer weather, ensure the dress is worn on its own.

Fabric feels slightly itchy

Ensure you are using a high-quality merino wool garment. If the itchiness persists, try washing the garment once more with a wool conditioner. The softness should improve with subsequent washes.
