I bought a super cute cotton dress online and never wore it for over a year because the color on me was ICK. It's original color washed me out and made me look a little sickly. With all the bright pops of color that are popular this summer, I decided to dye it. I've never dyed anything before, but I followed the simple directions and ta-dah - I have a new, fav, brightly colored summer dress! :) Rit dyes are available in lots of colors. Saturation of color can be controlled through concentration/quantity of dye used. Have fun!
