Dyeing Bottom of Wedding Dress

I think this is super risky and I’ve read that the dyes don’t ‘take’ to certain types of material very well. It could end up being splotchy. I’d go for cotton candy hair accessories and shoes to save the stress! Or bite the bullet and buy the ombré dress instead and try sell off your white one?

Take it to professionals to due. Not all modern fabrics can take dye. Natural fibers are easy, they soak it up, like a sponge, like cotton balls, and when most liquid is squeezed out, dye changes are then rinsed in a stableizing solution. But polymer fabrics start as liquid plastic, which is chemically dyed while hot, then cooled and run through a machine still very warm that squeezes it like a thousand little toothpaste tubes of thread! hat cool and harden. Some are mixed with natural fibers, loke poly-cotton. Most luxe fabrics are either silks and cottons, very high price, or the imitation polymers, what most of us with gowns under $5000 have. Laces may be natural or poly, often a different thing from what they are attached to.
Without a sample of your fabric to experiment on, you have no idea if individual threads can absorb dye, or just be coated with it and rub off or rinse off when worn. Like trying to dye clear fishing line. It could be there is some rayon or dyeable fabric. But who knows.

I was thinking of doing it to my veil- I say go for it! That’s gonna really make that gorgeous dress pop! I looked on YouTube & there are a ton of how to videos.

I have also heard that some fabrics don’t take dyes. What about a color over skirt?

I meant detachable color skirt
