FAQs
Is Merino Wool suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, Merino Wool is known for its fine fibers and softness, making it suitable for most people, including those with sensitive skin. It's less likely to cause irritation than traditional wool.
How often should I wash this strap top?
Thanks to the natural odour-resistant properties of Merino Wool, you can wear this top multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers and reduce environmental impact.
Can I wear this top in warm weather?
Merino Wool is excellent at temperature regulation. While it provides warmth, it's also breathable and moisture-wicking, making it comfortable for wear in milder temperatures as a base layer or on its own.
What does UK size 18 mean for this garment?
UK size 18 is a specific dress size in the United Kingdom. It generally corresponds to a larger fit within women's apparel sizing.
Will this top keep me warm in freezing temperatures?
As a base layer, it provides significant warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering it with additional insulating garments like sweaters and jackets is recommended for maximum warmth.
Can I use fabric softener with Merino Wool?
No, it is not recommended to use fabric softener with Merino Wool. Fabric softeners can coat the wool fibers, reducing their natural properties like breathability and moisture-wicking.
What other colours and sizes are available?
This model is available in Blue, UK size 18. Other colours and sizes for the DILLING Strap Top, made from Merino Wool, may be available from the brand.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy
Ensure you are washing with a wool-specific detergent and have followed the care instructions. Merino wool is generally very soft, so itchiness might indicate improper care or a reaction to other detergents.
Lace trim is damaged after washing
Check if the garment was washed on a harsh cycle or with abrasive items. Always use a gentle cycle and consider a laundry bag for items with delicate trim. Hand washing is the safest option.
Garment loses shape after drying
Avoid tumble drying. Always lay Merino wool items flat to dry. Reshape the garment gently while damp if needed.
