FAQs

What makes merino wool suitable for babies?

Merino wool is exceptionally soft, breathable, and naturally regulates temperature, keeping babies comfortable by preventing overheating or chilling. It's also hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking.

Can this dress be worn year-round?

Yes, due to the temperature-regulating properties of merino wool, this dress can be comfortable in various seasons. It's ideal for layering in cooler weather and breathable enough for milder temperatures.

How do I ensure the correct size?

This guide is for the 9-12 month size. Please refer to the product sizing chart or measure your baby against the garment's dimensions if available. Key measurements to consider are chest circumference and length.

Is this dress suitable for sleepwear?

No, this dress is specifically not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for daytime wear and active play.

How often should I wash this dress?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so it doesn't need to be washed after every wear. Wash when visibly soiled or when the garment no longer feels fresh. Airing it out can often suffice.

What does the 'elegant waist cut' mean?

The 'elegant waist cut' refers to a subtle seam or design feature across the torso, approximately at the natural waistline, which gives the dress a more refined shape compared to a simple straight-cut dress.

Where is this product made?

Product origin details would typically be found on the garment's care label or the manufacturer's website. DILLING is a brand known for producing garments in Europe.

Troubleshooting

Garment loses shape after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle at 30°C. Lay flat to dry completely, reshaping gently while damp. Avoid wringing or tumble drying.

Baby feels too warm or too cold

Merino wool is temperature-regulating. If your baby feels too warm, ensure they are not overdressed underneath and check the room temperature. If too cold, add a light merino wool base layer underneath.

Minor pilling on the fabric

Pilling is natural with merino wool and can often be removed gently with a fabric comb or by using a wool-safe de-piller. Avoid excessive friction during wear and washing.
