FAQs
What makes merino wool suitable for children's clothing?
Merino wool is exceptionally soft, breathable, and naturally temperature-regulating. It wicks moisture away from the skin and is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for children's sensitive skin and active lifestyles.
Can this dress be worn year-round?
Yes, thanks to merino wool's natural temperature-regulating properties, this dress is comfortable in various seasons. It provides warmth in cooler weather and breathability in warmer conditions.
How do I wash this merino wool dress?
Machine wash on a gentle wool program at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry and do not tumble dry.
Is this dress intended for sleepwear?
No, this dress is not intended for sleepwear. It is designed as daytime apparel.
What does 'pointelle' mean?
Pointelle refers to a knitting technique that creates delicate, ornamental patterns with small holes, giving the fabric a lacy or decorative appearance.
What is the fit of the dress?
The dress has an A-line silhouette, meaning it is designed to fit slightly more closely around the upper body and gradually becomes looser towards the hem, allowing for comfortable movement.
Are there other sizes or colors available?
This specific product listing is for the Purple, Size 5-6. Other sizes and potentially colors may be available from the brand DILLING under different product listings.
Troubleshooting
Dress loses shape after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle at 30°C. Avoid high spin speeds and always lay flat to dry.
Merino wool feels itchy.
DILLING uses fine merino wool which is typically very soft. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, as improper washing can affect the wool's texture. It may also be a matter of personal sensitivity, though merino wool is known for its non-itchy properties.
Pilling on the fabric.
Some pilling is natural with wool garments, especially with friction. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Proper washing and care will minimize pilling.
