Have just done the age old classic of putting one erroneous white & black dress in with a coloured wash.
Needless to say Dd1's favourite dress is now black and mottled pink
Is there anyway I can rescue it mnetters?

I bought dylon's colour run remover for a similar disaster recently and it was great - you just add it to your machine and re-wash the item. Got it from tesco's but they probably sell it in most supermarkets.

this is the stuff

btw, I did let mine dry as didn't have any treatment for it and it still worked perfectly. Dylon recommend you don't wash it again before treating it.

Thank you both.
Have put it back in washer with some stain remover stuff I have and a colour catcher sheet.
If this doesn't work I'll find the colour remover!
Fingers crossed
