FAQs
Is this dress suitable for newborns?
The DILLING Merino Wool Baby Dress with Ruffles is designed for infants. The specific size 9-12 months is typically suitable for babies within that age range. Always check the size guide for precise measurements.
Can this dress be worn in all seasons?
Yes, merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating. It provides warmth in cooler weather and breathability in warmer conditions, making it suitable for year-round wear, though it is not intended for sleepwear.
How does merino wool compare to regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer than traditional wool, making them softer, less likely to cause irritation, and more breathable. It also has excellent moisture-wicking properties.
Why is this dress not intended for sleepwear?
Garments not intended for sleepwear typically do not meet specific flammability standards required for sleepwear. This dress is designed for active daytime wear.
How do I check if the size fits my baby?
Refer to the DILLING size chart, which usually provides measurements for chest circumference, height, and age range. Measure your baby and compare against the chart to find the best fit.
Is merino wool hypoallergenic?
Merino wool is generally considered hypoallergenic due to its fine fibers and natural properties, making it a good choice for babies with sensitive skin. It is less likely to cause the itching associated with coarser wools.
Troubleshooting
Wool feels itchy
Ensure you are using a high-quality merino wool product. DILLING uses fine merino which is generally not itchy. Proper washing with wool-specific detergent also helps maintain softness. If the issue persists, try a merino wool base layer underneath.
Dress loses shape after washing
Avoid wringing or stretching the garment. Always lay flat to dry on a towel. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a delicate wash cycle. Reshape the garment gently while damp.
Small pills or bobbles appear on the fabric
Pilling is a natural characteristic of wool fibers. Gently remove any pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Proper care, such as washing inside out and avoiding excessive friction, can minimize pilling.
