Tools and materials:
- Clothes
- Bleach
- Squeezy bottle
- Rubber bands
- Gloves
1. Place rubber band around clothing
Place your item of clothing in the bathtub - I’m going to make a matching sweatsuit - and tie rubber bands around it.
2. Continue
Continue adding rubber bands all over your item of clothing, creating a scrunched-up look like so.
Remember that there is no right and wrong when it comes to tie die so don’t worry about where you place the rubber bands.
3. Apply bleach
Fill your squeezy bottle up with half bleach, and half water and proceed to squirt it onto your clothing.
4. Repeat
Repeat this process with the second piece of your sweatsuit.
5. Remove rubber bands
Let your sweatsuit sit with the rubber bands on for a bit and then proceed to remove them.
6. Add more bleach
At this stage, you can add more bleach to your clothing if you like.
7. Rinse off bleach
Next, rinse off the bleach with your showerhead.
8. Squeeze clothes
Once done, squeeze your clothes to get as much of the water and bleach as you can out of them.
Then throw your clothes in the washing machine and dryer - be sure to wash and dry them alone and not with anything else.
Here is the finished reverse tie dye sweatsuit.

I love the contrast of the brown bleached patches against the black background. The splattered design of the bleach looks really amazing and I’m so happy with how this turned out!
This technique was so much cheaper to do than if I had bought a tie dyed sweatsuit from a store. Give it a go for yourself!
