FAQs

Is this dress suitable for sleeping?

No, this baby dress is explicitly not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for daytime wear and play.

How do I know if the 9-12 month size will fit my baby?

The 9-12 month size is typically designed for babies aged between 9 and 12 months. For precise measurements, please refer to the brand's specific sizing chart if available, or consider your baby's current height and weight.

Can I use regular detergent to wash the dress?

It is strongly recommended to use a detergent specifically formulated for wool or delicates. Regular detergents can be too harsh and may damage the Merino wool fibers, affecting their softness and performance.

How does Merino wool keep my baby comfortable?

Merino wool is a natural fiber that is highly breathable and excellent at regulating body temperature. It can help keep your baby warm in cool conditions by trapping air and cool in warm conditions by wicking away moisture from the skin.

Is the blue color prone to fading?

When cared for properly using gentle washing cycles and wool-specific detergents, the blue color should maintain its vibrancy. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying, as this can cause fading over time.

Can this dress be worn in winter?

Yes, the Merino wool is warm, making it suitable for winter wear. For very cold temperatures, layering with other warm garments like leggings and a cardigan would be recommended.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels itchy or scratchy

Ensure the care instructions are followed precisely, especially regarding washing temperature and detergent. High-quality Merino wool should feel soft; scratchiness might indicate improper washing or exposure to harsh chemicals.

Garment has lost its shape after washing

Reshape the dress gently while it is damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid wringing or stretching the fabric excessively during washing and drying.

Pilling or fuzzing on the fabric surface

Some minor pilling is natural with wool garments over time. Gently remove any pills with a wool comb or by hand. Proper washing and avoiding excessive friction can minimize pilling.
