Product Information
Full details
This DILLING Tank Top is designed for adult women seeking a luxurious and functional base layer. Its key benefit is providing natural warmth and exceptional softness through a blend of organic merino wool and silk, while also being odour resistant. A potential caveat is that while naturally breathable, it is a blend and may not offer the same level of temperature regulation as 100% merino wool in extreme conditions. This elegant tank top features a delicate lace trim and offers the combined benefits of merino wool's natural properties with silk's unique softness.

FAQs
Is this tank top suitable for very cold weather?
This tank top provides natural warmth due to the merino wool and silk blend, making it excellent for layering in cold weather. For extreme cold, consider layering it with additional thermal garments.
How often should I wash this tank top?
Thanks to the natural odour-resistant properties of merino wool, you can wear this top multiple times between washes. Simply airing it out between wears can often suffice. Wash only when necessary according to the care instructions.
Can I wear this tank top directly against my skin?
Yes, the blend of fine merino wool and silk is exceptionally soft and designed to be worn comfortably against the skin.
What is the benefit of the silk in the blend?
The silk adds a unique softness, a smooth texture, and a subtle sheen to the fabric, enhancing the overall comfort and luxurious feel of the garment.
Will this garment shrink if washed incorrectly?
Wool and silk are sensitive to heat. To prevent shrinking, always wash on a cold, delicate cycle and air dry flat. Avoid high heat in washing or drying.
What does 'odour resistant' mean for merino wool?
Merino wool fibres have a natural structure that inhibits the growth of odour-causing bacteria. This means the fabric doesn't retain smells as readily as synthetic materials, allowing for extended wear between washes.
Does DILLING offer this tank top in other colors?
This specific product variant is in Black. Please refer to the product listing or other available variants for different color options.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy or rough
Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions with a wool-specific detergent. The natural softness of merino and silk should reduce itchiness after proper washing and wear.
Pilling after a few wears
Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool fibres due to friction. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Avoid excessive rubbing during washing and drying.
Reduced warmth or softness
Check if the garment was washed with harsh detergents or fabric softeners, which can degrade the fibres. Re-wash gently with a suitable wool detergent. Ensure it is air-dried properly.
