  • Are you looking for a comfortable and timeless tunic dress that can accompany an active lifestyle while remaining discreet against the skin?
  • Do you want to travel light without packing lots of bulky clothes in winter?

  • Do you prefer natural materials, without hidden industrial treatments?
  • Are you looking for a comfortable, elegant and versatile dress to wear all year round?

The Saaga tunic dress by MaM from Babyidea was designed to meet these needs, combining contemporary design and the natural performance of merino wool.

The Saaga tunic dress combines a modern and clean design with the intrinsic performance of merino wool, for a garment suitable for everyday wear, work, travel and relaxation.

Made from premium merino wool, it is naturally breathable, thermoregulating, stretchy and limits the formation of odors.
The 2025/26 design features a flattering trapeze (A-line) cut and deep pockets, combining style and functionality.

It can be worn alone as a dress or layered with other wool layers for year-round use.

Living Wool™ - Living Wool is an internal expertise concept-label developed by Maison de MaMoulia to identify products whose wool fiber is preserved as close as possible to its natural state, in the absence of industrial anti-felting treatments.

Untreated wool - an authentic and living fiber

This garment is made from untreated merino wool , without any industrial anti-felting treatment (such as Superwash, enzymes, Naturetexx®, polymer coatings, silicones or other similar processes).

The fiber thus retains its intact natural structure , responsible for its unique properties , as well as its natural lanolin.
This is what we call authentic and living wool.

Unlike wools treated to remove scales, artificially soften the fiber, and withstand machine washing, this wool naturally retains:

  • its thermoregulation (neither too hot nor too cold)
  • its ability to absorb moisture while remaining dry to the touch
  • its natural antibacterial properties
  • its resistance to odors and dirt
  • its natural elasticity (the garment returns to its shape when at rest)
  • its self-maintenance capacity through simple aeration

It is this intact fiber that allows for reduced washing, lasting, healthy and ecological comfort, and the preservation of a garment designed to last over time.

The natural benefits of merino wool

  • Naturally breathable, wool allows moisture to evaporate.
  • Warm but never stifling, suitable for all year round
  • Regulates temperature and creates a microclimate around the body
  • Resistant to odors and stains, therefore less frequent washing is required.
  • Antibacterial thanks to the pH of untreated wool
  • Elastic, returns to its shape after use (knees, buttocks, fabric stretching)
  • Soft and comfortable against the skin
  • Flame-retardant and UV-protective
  • Antistatic
  • 100% natural, recyclable and – truly – biodegradable

Composition

• Pure natural merino wool 380 g/m²
• Certified Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Class 1
• Without Superwash treatment or any other treatment
• Wool from a guaranteed non-mulesing production (yarn made exclusively for Babyidea)
• Non-harmful dyes suitable for natural fibers and sensitive skin

Conseils d'entretien

Pure, untreated wool garments do not need to be washed often.

• Routine maintenance

Regular ventilation in the open air (outdoors if possible, or in front of an open window)
Rest after each use: hang on a hanger or drying rack and do not leave crumpled up)
Spot clean stains under running water with Ulrich gall soap or genuine Marseille soap

• Complete wash (rare)

Hand washing is strongly recommended despite the "Machine washable" label.
Cold or room temperature water
Liquid laundry detergent for wool Ulrich Natürlich
Washing temperature = rinsing temperature
No spin cycle
Dry flat, away from sunlight and any heat source

• Lanolin Maintenance

Occasionally, treat the fabric (every 2-3 washes) or apply a lanolin treatment (every 3-4 washes) to maintain its self-cleaning and thermoregulating properties. Follow the instructions on the product information sheets.

Fabrication & Écologie

ManyMonths/MaM/MaD clothing is manufactured in China by Babyidea's partner, EcoTextile / HempValley (Denmark/China), a manufacturer specializing in natural fibers and committed to responsible textile production for many years. This reflects a strong commitment to style, comfort, and a responsible approach to fashion.

In 2008, EcoTextile obtained GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification for the processing and marketing of organic textiles, making it one of the few GOTS-certified garment factories in China. This level of certification remains relatively uncommon, even globally, and demonstrates a genuine commitment to sustainability and traceability.

The manufacturer complies with international labor standards defined by the International Labour Organization (ILO), including:

• voluntary employment and the absence of forced labor,
• the right to collective bargaining,
• the prohibition of child labor,
• non-discrimination,
• health and safety measures,
• fair wages,
• regulated working hours.

EcoTextile benefits from a management team rooted in Europe and nearly 20 years of experience in manufacturing clothing from natural fibers. Their expertise combines a traditional textile craft with a deep understanding of modern requirements for sustainability and social responsibility.

The priority is to offer clothing made with awareness, respect for workers, the environment and the health of users, in a sustainable and transparent slow fashion approach.

The production is also OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class I certified, ensuring that every component of the garment is free from harmful substances and safe for the skin, including that of babies.

For dyes, EcoTextile collaborates exclusively with certified workshops guaranteeing the absence of hazardous substances, with rigorous tests carried out by independent laboratories (SGS).

Babyidea has chosen to prioritize ethics, technical competence and verifiable certifications, rather than just geographical location.
Production carried out in a specialized, certified and experienced workshop, even in China, can be more responsible than local production in Europe without technical infrastructure, certification and real social guarantees.

Questions fréquentes

• Is it suitable during pregnancy?
Yes.
The trapeze (A-line) cut offers natural ease and can accommodate the changing belly during pregnancy, without being a specifically maternity garment.

• How can one wear this dress?
It can be worn:

- as a dress with tights in winter,
- as a tunic dress with leggings or jeans,
- as an elegant tunic for the office or everyday wear,
- as comfortable clothing at home.

• Does wool make you itch?
No.
The fine knit is soft, often compared to cotton in feel.

• Can it be worn directly on the skin?
Yes.
The fine mesh is designed for direct wear against the skin.
Depending on individual sensitivity, a wool/silk layer can be worn underneath.

• Can it be machine washed?
You can, if you wish, machine wash this wool at less than 30°C, on a short cycle, with a maximum spin speed of 400 rpm or no spin if possible, using a special wool detergent and no fabric softener. However, machine washing is always at your own risk. Hand washing is strongly recommended to preserve the untreated fibers.

• How long can it be worn without washing?
Dozens of times depending on usage, with simple ventilation.

• Is it hot?
Wool is thermoregulating: warm when it's cold, breathable when it's warm. Adding a base layer of wool or a wool-silk blend is possible in sub-zero temperatures.

• Does wool stretch?
Yes, slightly so with use, but it regains its shape after resting.

• Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, merino wool is finer than a human hair. By maintaining its lanolin, which moisturizes it, you'll have a very comfortable garment to wear.

• Is this an environmentally friendly product?
Yes. Natural fiber, truly biodegradable, durable, certified and ethically produced.

Conseils de Yuliya

• In very cold weather, I wear a Cosilana wool-silk t-shirt under MaM clothing to reinforce the thermal layer.

• Avoid using deodorants containing oils (organic or homemade): they can clog the fibers and reduce their ability to breathe, just as some diaper rash creams for babies can clog washable diapers.
If an odor persists despite 1 to 2 days of airing in fresh air, the wool may need to be cleaned.

• I highly recommend hand washing to preserve the size and structure of the garment.
Ulrich Natürlich products (laundry detergent, treatment, impregnation, stain-removing soap) are highly recommended.

Babyidea / ManyMonths / MaM

L’histoire de Babyidea commence en Finlande, dans la région d’Helsinki, comme une entreprise familiale scandinave guidée par une idée simple : concevoir des produits réellement utiles au quotidien et cohérents avec une parentalité naturelle.

Les premiers pas de MaM® Design remontent à 2001, lors du congé maternité de Bettina, alors enseignante universitaire. À cette époque, le portage physiologique est presque inconnu en Europe et les vêtements adaptés n’existent pratiquement pas. Les premières créations naissent donc d’un besoin concret : faciliter la vie avec un bébé, sans compromis sur le confort ni sur les matières.
Les vêtements ManyMonths qui grandissent avec l'enfant - sont nés.

La marque grandit en même temps que ses enfants : de quelques cartons empilés dans une chambre servant d’atelier improvisé à un espace logistique de 500 m² près d’Helsinki, puis à un réseau de distributeurs et de boutiques à travers l’Europe. Malgré cette évolution, l’objectif reste inchangé : développer des solutions durables, pratiques et respectueuses, en partenariat avec des entreprises partageant les mêmes valeurs.

Dans cette logique, la fabrication des vêtements ManyMonths, MaM et MaD ne s’est pas décidée sur un critère géographique mais technique et humain. Le choix s’est porté sur EcoTextile / HempValley (Danemark/Chine), un atelier spécialisé dans les fibres naturelles travaillant depuis près de vingt ans avec des standards élevés de traçabilité et de responsabilité sociale. Certifié GOTS depuis 2008 - une certification encore rare - le fabricant suit également les normes internationales du travail de l’OIT. Chaque composant est certifié OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Classe I et les teintures sont contrôlées par laboratoires indépendants.

Ce partenariat reflète la philosophie de la marque : privilégier la compétence, la transparence et les garanties vérifiables plutôt qu’une proximité apparente. L’objectif reste le même qu’au départ : créer des vêtements pensés pour durer, sûrs pour les enfants et cohérents avec un mode de vie plus responsable, du dessin en Finlande jusqu’à la fabrication.

La collection MaM / MaD pour les adultes est née en 2017 pour repondre à la demande croissante des parents pour pouvoir enfin porter cette même laine que leurs enfants en ManyMonths.

*******

C'est en achetant un simple body ManyMonths en pure laine en 2012 qui a été le point de départ de mon activité. C’est là que j’ai découvert concrètement ce que pouvait être la laine au quotidien. Puis, en équipant mes enfants avec toute la collection, une autre évidence s’est imposée : j’avais envie d’en parler, d’expliquer, la faire découvrir au monde entier!

C’est ainsi qu’est née ma boutique. Cette marque a été à l’origine directe de mon activité, et au fil des années j’ai aussi très activement participé à son développement en France, tout en influençant certaines évolutions de produits grâce aux retours du terrain.

Tout a commencé grâce à Bettina. Je lui resterai toujours reconnaissante pour ces vêtements qui ont accompagné mes enfants - et moi - pendant toutes ces années.
