Are the ruffles and lace durable?

Troubleshooting

Dress feels itchy

Merino wool is generally soft, but if irritation occurs, ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions with a wool-specific detergent. Sometimes, a few washes can soften the fibers further.

Fabric pilling

Some pilling is natural with wool fibers. To minimize it, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid overcrowding the washing machine. Use a fabric shaver for larger pills if necessary.

Color fading

Wash the garment inside out in cold water and avoid direct sunlight when drying. Use detergents free from harsh chemicals.
