FAQs

What makes merino wool terry different from regular merino wool?

Merino wool terry has a slightly thicker knit with a soft, fuzzy interior and a smooth exterior. This construction offers enhanced softness and insulation compared to standard merino wool fabrics.

Is this dress suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the thicker wool terry and temperature-regulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for cooler temperatures. For extreme cold, layering may be beneficial.

Can this dress be worn as pajamas?

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

How often should I wash this dress?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and self-cleaning to some extent. Washing is recommended only when necessary, following the care instructions. Airing out the garment can often refresh it.

What is the best way to store this dress?

Store the dress folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging for long periods, as this can cause stretching. Consider using cedar balls or sachets to protect against moths.

Is the purple color fade-resistant?

DILLING uses high-quality dyes, but like most colored fabrics, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause colors to fade over time. Store away from direct light.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the washing instructions. Merino wool is generally soft, but proper care is essential. If the issue persists, it may be an individual sensitivity.

Dress has lost its shape after washing

Reshape the garment while it is still damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid machine drying, as the heat can cause shrinkage and distortion.

Wool has pilled

Pilling is a natural characteristic of wool fibers. Gently remove pills with a fabric comb or de-piller. Avoid excessive friction during wear and washing.
