How do I wash this merino wool dress?

Can I put this dress in the dryer?

Troubleshooting
Dress seems to have lost its shape after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a gentle wool wash cycle at 30°C. Lay flat to dry, avoiding stretching it while wet. Reshape gently while damp if needed.
Merino wool feels itchy.
The 18.5-micron merino wool used is typically very fine and soft. Ensure the care instructions are followed, as improper washing can affect the fiber's texture. Check for any stray threads or seams that might be causing irritation.
Small holes or snags appearing.
Merino wool can be susceptible to snags. Avoid washing with items that have zippers or sharp edges. Inspect the garment regularly and carefully mend any small snags to prevent them from worsening.
