FAQs
What makes this bodysuit suitable for all weather?
The blend of merino wool and silk naturally regulates temperature and breathes exceptionally well. This means it helps keep your baby warm in cold conditions and cool in warmer conditions by managing moisture and airflow.
How do I put the bodysuit on my baby?
The bodysuit has press studs at the neck, making it easy to open and pull over your baby's head. It also features practical press studs between the legs for quick and easy diaper changes without needing to remove the entire garment.
Is the material suitable for newborns with sensitive skin?
Yes, the fine and light fibers of the merino wool and silk blend are designed to feel wonderfully soft against sensitive and delicate skin, minimizing the risk of irritation.
What does 'pointelle pattern' mean?
A pointelle pattern is a type of knitted or woven fabric that has small, decorative holes or eyelets, creating a delicate and textured appearance. This bodysuit features such a pattern along with frilled edges.
Will the bodysuit shrink if washed incorrectly?
To prevent shrinkage, always adhere to the care instructions: wash on a gentle wool cycle at 30°C or less, use wool-specific detergent, and lay flat to dry. Avoid high heat and tumble drying.
Can this bodysuit be worn year-round?
Yes, the thermoregulating properties of the merino wool and silk blend make it suitable for year-round wear as a base layer. It provides warmth in winter and breathability in summer.
How often should I wash the bodysuit?
Merino wool has natural odor-resistant properties. Wash only when necessary, typically after a few wears, to preserve the fibers and reduce environmental impact. Follow the care instructions precisely.
Troubleshooting
Bodysuit feels stretched out after wear.
This is normal for wool. Gently reshape the bodysuit while damp after washing, and it will regain its original fit.
Baby seems uncomfortable or itchy.
Ensure the correct size is being worn. The merino wool and silk blend is designed to be soft, but if irritation occurs, consult the care instructions to ensure the garment is clean and properly cared for.
Bodysuit loses shape after washing.
Always follow the recommended washing and drying instructions. Lay flat to dry and reshape gently while damp. Avoid high temperatures and tumble drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F).
- Detergent: Use a detergent specifically for wool or delicates. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
- Drying: Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
- Reshaping: Gently reshape the garment while damp after washing to help it regain its original form, as wool fibers naturally contract after washing.
