It’s back. Yes, tie dye fashion has been brought back into the spot light from decades of obscurity. Thanks to the many runway shows prominently featuring tie dye clothing, many people are starting to think of ways of how they can pull off this style this spring and summer.
Although this process of dyeing clothes is more than 1000 years old, many people associate the beginning of tie dye in the 1960. This was around the time the hippie culture and psychedelics was at its popularity. Fast forward to almost 60 years and tie dye is back. Tie dyed t-shirts are leading the way in this reemergence of style, so this guide is only for tie dyed t-shirts.

Men & Women
A tie dyed t-shirt should only be worn in casual settings. For a classic summer outfit focus on wearing light a light coloured tie dyed t-shirt. This shirt can feature reds, oranges, and yellows. A great look would be to wear distressed jeans paired with your favourite running shoes. Faded denim shorts are suitable as well.

Darker coloured tie dyed t-shirts are a bit more tricky to pull off. Because of the cheerful nature of tie dye, many people tend to not know how to wear something like a black and grey coloured shirt. At coatFibers we do not recommend wearing any type of dark coloured tie dye, as this type of t-shirt cannot be used to look anything else than casual. Stick with lighter colours for the best outfit possible.
