Garment Dye + Overdye
The combination of these two techniques allows for the creation of unique and layered colour effects on clothing and textiles. The specific outcome depends on factors such as the choice of dyes, dyeing methods, and the characteristics of the fabric.

Benefits
Two dye passes on the finished garment give a layered, double-toned colour with more depth than a single shade. Useful for tonal collections.
Limitations
Shade and transition vary between pieces, so both are approved against agreed limits. Two dye passes extend the lead time.
Process
- Garment Preparation: Choose the garments.
- Design Planning: Plan which areas are garment dyed and which are overdyed.
- Garment Dyeing: Dye the whole garment and let it dry.
- Quality Check: Inspect colour consistency and quality, and adjust where needed.
- Overdyeing: Prepare a separate dye bath, immerse the selected areas, and rinse.
- Rinsing, Finishing & Quality Check: Rinse the garment, complete finishing, and make a final check of the colour effect.
