FAQs

Is Merino Wool suitable for summer?

Yes, Merino Wool is excellent for summer as it is highly breathable, wicks moisture away from the skin, and helps regulate body temperature, keeping the baby cool and dry.

How does the Silk blend benefit the bodysuit?

The silk blend enhances the softness and smoothness of the fabric, making it even more comfortable against sensitive baby skin, while also contributing to its thermoregulating properties.

What is the best way to wash this bodysuit?

It is best to machine wash on a gentle wool cycle at 30-40°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat drying. Lay flat to dry.

Can this bodysuit be worn year-round?

While designed for summer, the thermoregulating properties of Merino Wool mean it can also be used as a base layer in cooler months, though additional layers would be necessary.

What does the UK size 3-5 mean?

This typically refers to a size range for babies approximately 3 to 5 years old, but it's always best to check the specific measurements provided by DILLING against your child's measurements for the best fit.

Are there other colors available in this style?

This specific product is listed in Blue. Please check the DILLING brand offerings for other available colors in their summer bodysuit range.

Troubleshooting

Bodysuit loses shape after washing

Ensure you are using a wool/silk specific detergent and a gentle wool wash cycle. Avoid high heat drying and excessive wringing. Lay flat to dry.

Skin irritation reported by baby

While rare due to the soft blend, ensure the garment is washed before first use. Check for any external tags or seams that might be causing discomfort. Ensure proper fit; a garment that is too tight can cause irritation.

Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten

Ensure the poppers are aligned correctly. Sometimes, new garments can be stiff. Gentle manipulation should loosen them over time. If a popper appears damaged, contact customer support.
