Dyeing






Part of my project involved creating unique garments that can't be replicated, much like a cell - they are all individual. This also means the customer is involved in the garment - they can choose their favourite unique piece that no one else will have. I wanted to create my circular shapes on the jacket using tie dye. This meant that I had to make the entire jacket and then dye it in the hot dye pans. This was very risky and exciting as I only had one attempt, but this was very much part of the process. I also wanted to dye my skirt, as I couldn't find the exact grey colour in the fabric I was looking for and didn't want to settle for anything that wasn't right. So I dyed each panel in the dye bath all at the same time to get a consistent colour.
