No, this dress is not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for active wear during the day.
How do I wash the merino wool dress?
You can machine wash it on a wool or delicate cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry.
Is the fit tight or loose?
The top half of the dress has a close, comfortable fit, while the skirt is designed to be roomy and loose to allow for free movement and play.
What does the 'rib surface' mean?
The rib surface refers to the knitting technique used, creating a subtle, fine, and uniform ribbed texture that provides excellent flexibility and stretch.
What age group is this specific dress for?
This particular variant is sized for children aged 6 years (UK size 6).
Can this dress be worn in different seasons?
Yes, merino wool is excellent for temperature regulation. It can keep children warm in cooler weather and breathable in warmer conditions, making it suitable for year-round wear, though it may require layering in very cold climates.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy or rough after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers. Lay flat to dry and avoid excessive heat.
Dress seems to have lost its shape.
Merino wool is resilient. Lay the garment flat to dry, gently reshaping it while damp. Avoid wringing or stretching excessively.
Small holes or thinning in the fabric.
Check for excessive friction or snagging during wear or washing. Ensure the garment is washed on a delicate cycle with similar items and avoid harsh detergents.
